WIP Source: What is a pEdict?

minorgod · **WIP Source: What is a pEdict? -** 18-05-2004

I'm trying to get a handle on this WIP source code as quickly as possible and I've never coded a bot before. So I'm going to be posing a bunch of basic bot coding questions here since I can't stand that WIKI. Please bear with me if these questions seem exceedingly stupid.

First off, I see a bunch of "pEdict" stuff and can't figure out what an edict is or where it is defined. Is it a pointer to a struct or a class that I can't find somewhere? Is it part of the HLSDK?

yes it is a part of the HLSDK.
a pEdict is a pointer to a structure called edict_t or edict_s.
All entities in this engine are basicly an edict structure.
so players, chickens, lights, hostages, etc... all are edicts.

btw this should be in the bot coding forum..

Thanks for the quick reply. Didn't see a bot coding forum in the RealBot section. Didn't look in the other bot forums. Will post here from now on.

that is the bot coding forum...
