Planned features

Planned for undefined future:
- Tau jumping (working on some ideas, probably will track real players and place special tau-jump autowaypoints)
- Wall-gaussing (will need to look at CS bots how they implement shooting through walls for tips)
- Jump over drop autowaypoints
- Longjump over drop autowaypoints

Please post you ideas and feature requests.

Re: Planned features

Ugh.. it's going to be long wait :death:

Re: Planned features

Could You please, take a look at this.
I need to steel from someone the working code for affecting bots by the darkness, so maybe You can add this to JKBotti. That shoud be very easy to do for You. :)
[EDIT]
Nevermind. I found another bot code it has it already... :)

Re: Planned features

Request:

Support for HL1 DoD, the other supported bots have been dead for a long time now.

That would be a nice feature.
A multi-Mod bot.

Re: Planned features

Multi-mod bot isn't going to happen. But sources are there if you want to try your own bot.

Re: Planned features

As for shooting through walls:

1. traceline from player A to B , get wall intersection X
2. traceline from player B to A , get wall intersection Y

"width" of wall is X - Y.

You can do some tricks with that. Basically it is cheating of course. SO add some 'noise' in the aiming to make the bots not super lethal.

Thats it?

Code:



//=========================================================

// Returns if enemy can be shoot through some obstacle

//=========================================================

bool CBaseBot::IsShootableThruObstacle(Vector vecDest)

{

   if (!WeaponShootsThru(m_iCurrentWeapon))

      return FALSE;



   Vector vecSrc = EyePosition();

   Vector vecDir = (vecDest - vecSrc).Normalize();  // 1 unit long

   Vector vecPoint = g_vecZero;

   int iThickness = 0;

   int iHits = 0;



   edict_t *pentIgnore = pev->pContainingEntity;

   TraceResult tr;

   UTIL_TraceLine(vecSrc, vecDest, ignore_monsters, ignore_glass, pentIgnore, &tr);



   while (tr.flFraction != 1.0 && iHits < 3)

   {

      iHits++;

      iThickness++;

      vecPoint = tr.vecEndPos + vecDir;

      while (POINT_CONTENTS(vecPoint) == CONTENTS_SOLID && iThickness < 64)

      {

         vecPoint = vecPoint + vecDir;

         iThickness++;

      }

      UTIL_TraceLine(vecPoint, vecDest, ignore_monsters, ignore_glass, pentIgnore, &tr);

   }



   if (iHits < 3 && iThickness < 64)

   {

      if (LengthSquared(vecDest - vecPoint) < 12544)

         return TRUE;

   }



   return FALSE;

}

for other MODs things may be different though.
