dod:s : fix bots not proning on sniper spots

I think i'm still seeing this with .73beta...? It was an axis sniper, standing on a axis/sniper/mg/prone wpt on dod_flash near allied first flag , facing allied base direction. the mg prones there fine... maybe it's just on combo flaged wpts? anyone else seen this??

also, I think I may be seeing rocket classes shooting high because of unreachables, like they are aiming at those instead of the target beyond??

One more thing, I can post a demo of this.. It may only happen when waypoints are on? I havn't noticed it without wpts on, yet? I've seen it with sniper and I think it was rifleman classes. they get locked into a funny mode of take a few steps then hop, repeat. it happens on & between wpts... once killed they snap out of it for a while, but i think i saw the same bot doing it again in the same round once...heh heh...

wpts are on, but they dont show properly in the demo. also the demo was done with .72, but i'm certain I saw this with .73beta yesterday... it was happening enough, i kinda started ignoring it, so i'll try to look for it more, especially with wpts off... An open path a bot cant get thru to reach a goal in another part of the map, wouldn't cause this to happen to a different bot some place else in the map, would it? Just wondering, cause i have that open path for axis at the stairs, in the sniper perch (flash), to keep them in there. I thought it might mess thier brains up some? heh heh...

Programmer and mappers...oh man I really wish the likes of PMB, botman etc would post by here but seems their so busy on their work. Botman I think still works at gearbox right? But you're doing a heck of a fine job Cheeseh so don't worry too much about our whinning

Yep, I second that... you're doin great... and sometimes RL takes priorty... I think some of them guys fell into the RL black hole or something tho... I think drevil & crapshoot over at the OB site might still be around... I need to go check on that, haven't played ET for a while now. first bot I wpted with that used radius's. but I couldn't do the scripting very well after ob.6 came out....
