Shooting through walls, and floors
 

I have gotten some complaints about bots shooting through walls. I have verified that shoot through walls is turned off in the podbot config. I was just playing on cs_militia and I was shot through the floor. When entering the building from the front a bot upstairs shot through the floor and head shot me. I am not sure what I can do to verify that indeed shoot through walls is off. It is off in the config so I am assuming it is getting read. I would think some walls could not be shot through but if I remember they have to be 96 units wide I think. Not sure.

What can I do to fix this issue?

I am running

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

I do agree that their hearing is to great, but if the bot seen an enemy and the door closes infront of them then they should shoot through doors and walls.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

but through the floor? I have cleared that room out from afar and tossed a flashbang through the window too. Two steps in the door I got double tapped. Seems a bit out of hand. Ashame that the walls can be shot through really. Detracts from the realism.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

Well, I've shot people through the floor before, but all I think the problem is that the bot is to sensitive when it comes to hearing.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

is there a way that can be adjusted? I am set to min skill 65 with max of 100. For the most part the bots are challenging and fun to play. Just the shooting through walls thing that is a bit of a downer.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

If the problem is only shooting through floors, it can be easy fixed. But if You mean they are shooting too unrealistic also through walls, I may have troubles with it. I was trying to make more randomization of aiming through walls, but still with no success.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

Shooting through walls isn't horribly bad, but sometimes it seems like someone has the sound way up and can hear everything ;)

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

perhaps it has something to do with the map and the code. The bots might be able to see through the floor. But please do not remove the bot shoot thru wall code> I like it. If people really want it, just add an option to turn it off if you can. but please focus on other stuff too, like vehicle support and better not looking at walls.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

I don't have a problem with them shooting at doors and things where people have gone. But the super sonic hearing and ability to head shot at 50 yards with a shotgun can get a bit overwhelming. I have shoot through walls turned off but I see little difference.

Re: Shooting through walls, and floors
 

It's working so, because I had a lot of complains the bots are too easy. If they are too hard for You, just lower down their skill :D
