Sorry sir but we're reffering to bugs in the new WIP... there is a bug where the bots no longer shoot the first target they see but they stay aiming at them til they see another target... probably a bug due to the new "noticing multiple target" code or something...

in fact i call the same 'check enemey' code , but then in combat. So there has to be a problem there. I will check it out, it begins to irritate me.

Hi stefan,

well, after a little 20-minutes testing of the new wip, i haven't noticed any 'new' bugs, but i have to agree with the others about the "bots dont shoot" issue (in fact, it happened a lot more now than with 2053 : at least one fourth of 'meetings' between two enemy bots ended up in an observation session - lol, wich means it actually happens a lot more since i can't measure it when only one bot is affected).

Oh, and sometimes (maybe always, i don't know) bots don't react to sound at all, either event sound or player sound. Maybe it's related to the previous bug, but you should know better than me )

Apart from that, there is maybe one other non-related 2057 problem (but again i haven't seen it in other posts, so here it is). Bots sometimes use burstfire even at very short range. Isn't it safer in such cases (by very short range i mean almost physical contact) to just go full auto until enemy dies?

Thx for all your work and attention.
