Something about msecval

"sv_maxspeed was not initialized correctly" because sv_maxspeed is a server CVAR, not a client one, which means that if the game DLL chooses to rely on this value for the players' movements, ALL the players will run at the same speed all the time. This can't be, because CS lets players have different run speeds given the weapon they are carrying. That's why the game DLL of Counter-Strike does NOT rely on sv_maxspeed, but let the clients adapt their max speeds individually, unlike other MODs which don't feature different player run speeds.

You function (void SetSpeed (bot_t *pBot)) only for CS 1.5? Where weapon FAMAS, GALIL?

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

right, it's not "my" function, really ; it's eLiTe's function (which he had in his TEAMbot). You'll have to figure out yourself what are the player's max speed when you are carrying a FAMAS or a GALIL.

But I suggest you rather use pBot->pEdict->v.maxspeed like KaCaT said.

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

BTW, KaCaT, does pEdict->v.maxspeed also work for CS 1.5 ?

[KaCaT]

No, it doesn't works for CS 1.5. The value it gives for bots in CS 1.5 always is 1000 8o

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

then how about this instead:

void pfnSetClientMaxspeed (const edict_t *pEdict, float fNewMaxspeed)
{
   // update this client's max speed (Counter-Strike 1.5 doesn't do it right)
   ((edict_t *) pEdict)->v.maxspeed = fNewMaxspeed;
   (*g_engfuncs.pfnSetClientMaxspeed) (pEdict, fNewMaxspeed);
}

With a speed everything is all right. Thanks.
But the problem with freezing has remained.

[strelok]

What value should be up to freeze time and what after?

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

the bot's maxspeed should be kept at 0 before freeze time, and raised to the normal value (pBot->pEdict->v.maxspeed in CS 1.6 or f_max_speed passed in pfnSetClientMaxSpeed() in CS 1.5) immediately after it. But I'm not sure your problem comes from here...

This is a long shot, but does anyone still have the TEAMbot source code? I would appreciate it if you could mail to me at nboxelite@hotmail.com

I am making multiplayer game in Unreal Engine and would like to use my old bot perception code as a reference, since I had spent a lot of time tweaking it to be fun to play against

I lost the original code a long time ago after a power surge destroyed my PC. Since then I have realised the importance of backups :p
