This way, they would at least be able to shoot an enemy bot who is between them and their next WP - instead of being stuck forever. |
I'm agree with You, T Wrecks - there is something to do with fighting bots on the ladders, too. But I think for this we will need to open the separate thread, because this one staying to be a little bit too big like some threads in the past at this forum...
I can add only one word to this situation on cs_assault at this big ladder - last time I was waiting for bot there - at the edge of the building near the top of the ladder. I simply killed two bots before reaching by them top of the ladder, because they didn't try to look at the target of its climbing.
I'm agree with PMB about this change in ladders fighting mode - now they can shoot during climbing because they look paralell to the ground - this is 100% OK. But I think , they should look sometimes during climbing also up and down to better see the situation (these situations described by T Wrecks and me). There is whole problem with this "look around" of bot. I noticed the fact - bots remember the last sound and view of enemie and they are still looking at that direction. The result is this , that they go and look at the wall (because they remember last enemie direction) and they don't see waiting for them enemies behind its back. If this is not clear what I described now, I can prepare some screenshots for better understanding the problem.
Stop KWo - need new thread for this...
OK - about ladder climbing problem now all is clear - there is something to do with bot's climbing code and now this thread can be closed, I think. Who can do this (close this thread)?
