Here are other screenshots of the AI console in action

the problem with it is that it's readable only on a dark background...

anyway it's improving. Slowly.

Re: development screenies
 

red may not be the best color for the ai console but i think it looks the best. i imagine yellow is not good, have you tried green?
looks like youve been hard at work, keep it up!!!
I just can't wait...:( ;)

Re: development screenies
 

Or try cycling through different colours...

Re: development screenies
 

or include a public cvar for the client to change the ai console color
ex:
racc_aicolor <1-10>

Re: development screenies
 

the colors are a problem, that's for sure. we'd need text like the one with the say messages, light chars with a black border, that'd be fine :D

Re: development screenies
 

I think the HUD font is much more "AI" tho, from a design standpoint. text you're talking about would be bland...
but thats just MY opinion!

Re: development screenies
 

I'm not displaying the texts to make it look cool, but to debug the bot.

if I wanna see nice pictures to look at, I usually go to the museum.

Re: development screenies
 

I think it would be a very innovative feature of this bot, to display this AI console while spectators are watching a bot. For the final version, maybe you should think about making it look cool. :|

*edit*
for the pictures, I usually don't go that far... I fire up my browser and head up to some russian p0rn site, pictures are worth the look there too. :D

Heyyo,

PM, dude, seriously, I'm amazed no big game designer has approached you to do the ai for their game, cause I think I'd be a golden bot for any game that your coding would grace. :)

For a future project, you should try to implement team strategies, like "Rush bombsite A" or "Rush left" or something like that for bomb site rushing, or hostage rushing, etc. And bots should decide if they wanna follow orders, or go all "lone wolf" like some people do. And then, the bots rushing properly should be all like, "HEY! get over here n00b!!!" lol....
