Default Re: POD-bot back into shape. - 23-02-2004

You're wrong Stefan... for a real client yes, you keep pressing the forward button, but for a bot which uses the obnoxious pfnRunPlayerMove, if the bot keeps trying to rush through the door both the bot and the door will get stuck. The door won't open at all, it will just play endlessly the "open door" sound, and the bot will jump/turn around like crazy because it'll believe it's stuck. ONLY if the bot steps back from the door then the door will open. I defy you to show me a RealBot navigating a door correctly if you do it this way.

The code I posted works; tested; 200% guarantees; the bot doesn't wait any longer than the time necessary for the door to open, due to the TraceResult check (the TraceLine passes as soon as the door is sufficiently open for a bot to pass too).
