YapB's aiming with ChickenMod - suggestion

In the function Vector CBot::AimPosition (void) You have this:

Code:

 float fZComponentUpdate = UsesSniper () ? 15.0 : 17.0;

Vector vTarget = m_pentEnemy->v.origin;



if (g_rgpcvBotCVar[CVAR_HARDCOREMODE]->GetBool ())

      fZComponentUpdate = (UsesSniper () ? 2.32 : UsesPistol () ? 5.0 : (fDistance < 300 ? 4.08 : 6.18)) + fZComponentUpdate;

   else

      fZComponentUpdate = fZComponentUpdate - (0.5 * (100.0 - m_iSkill)



(...)

      // now take in account different parts of enemy body

      if (m_ucVisibility & (VISIBLE_HEAD | VISIBLE_BODY)) // visible head & body

      {

         // now check is our skill match to aim at head, else aim at enemy body

         if ((RandomLong (1, 100) < g_rgkSkillTab[m_iSkill / 20].iHeadshotFrequency) || UsesPistol ())

            vTarget = vTarget + Vector (0, 0, fZComponentUpdate);

         else

            vTarget = vTarget;

      }

      else if (m_ucVisibility & VISIBLE_HEAD) // visible only head

         vTarget = vTarget + Vector (0, 0, fZComponentUpdate);

The bot aims perfectly against the "normal size" bots or players, but it fails with the players/bots using some fun models - for example ChickenMod. The yabp is always trying to hit the head above real head of the chicken, which makes them impossible to hit an enemy.
You need to use
pEdict->v.view_ofs + {0,0,fZNewComponentUpdate} value instead of pEdict->v.origin + {0,0,fZComponentUpdate}.
fZNewComponentUpdate - the new offset for "Z" axis.

Never used chickenmod before, i'll install and test it in a few days :)

Thank you.. ;)

Re: YapB's aiming with ChickenMod - suggestion

You can just use my All-In-One installer - it's a zip file with mm1.19, latest AMX X 1.75a and pb mm V3. There are few helpful plugins with testing bots as ATAC, ChickenMod and CSDM. You can control them from amxmodmenu (last - third - page).

I meant of course - in Your case - You need to use:
m_pentEnemy->v.view_ofs + {0,0,fZNewComponentUpdate}
