I was just thinking about the feet! My bot aiming shoots directly at the bones, so it should be easy to get them to shoot right at the feet.

Also, the result of the angle difference is 180 when the bot is directly facing you. So the if statement should be < 90, not > 90. It should be higher than 90 as assassin points out, but I'm not sure how high yet, probably somewhere before 120. It works at 100 which is where I'm at so far with my testing.

Another thing you can do is make the bot run up to the player with shield, try and circle and knife him when his shield is up. It seems the knife goes right through the shield, which is real dumb when bullets can't, but that's what it does.
