Re: hpb template 4 metamod & cleaned

wow , great job dude !

By the way , there are severe bug , you should reset the msec stuff every round ( I advised you to do so )

And this is an old bug of HPB_template

in bot_navigate.cpp the function BotChangePitch

pEdict->v.v_angle.x = current;

We have to add this line below the above line else the pitch angle we set wont have any use

pEdict->v.angles.x = pEdict->v.v_angle.x / 3;

done reset the msec at worldspawn when the gpGlobals->time starts from 0.0.

Re: hpb template 4 metamod & cleaned

hmm, you'd better call this your own template, and not the "HPB template" anymore. This because botman did not want his bot to support Counter-Strike, and the msec problem you're talking about affects Counter-Strike (and thus round-based games) only.

No, this is not needed because the bot's body angles are set already at the end of each BotThink, before the RunPlayerMove call. Doing it again here is redundant.

It's nice that you care about CS players, though, but I think you should fork from the official HPB template and call this another name instead.

Re: hpb template 4 metamod & cleaned

actually there's no need to reset the msec value every round at all, but if you defined the msec as global variable instead of the way the original HPB bot did you need to reset them to zero every map start.

Code:

   // make the body face the same way the bot is looking

   pEdict->v.angles.y = pEdict->v.v_angle.y;

 

   // save the previous speed (for checking if stuck)

   pBot->prev_speed = pBot->f_move_speed;

 

   BotFixIdealPitch (pEdict);

   BotFixIdealYaw (pEdict);

   BotFixBodyAngles (pEdict);

   BotFixViewAngles (pEdict);

 

   g_engfuncs.pfnRunPlayerMove (pEdict, pEdict->v.v_angle, pBot->f_move_speed,

                                                                0, 0, pEdict->v.button, 0, g_fMsecVal);

   return;

}

Pardon ?

Re: hpb template 4 metamod & cleaned

well yes, you are right, it's my fault. I said this because it was really planned to put it there when botman allowed me to update his template but looks like I forgot to do it. And Whistler is right about the msecval too. The global msecval needs to be reset each time a new map starts. But since this is done in StartFrame already, there's no need to do it again in DispatchSpawn.
