CODE

This release includes two DLL files.
One which is the normal dll (HPB_Bot2.dll) expects the rcbot2 folder in the users/ directory
Another (HPB_Bot2o.dll) uses the old filesystem position in HL mods folder which either:
   1. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / account name directory for non steampipe mods, or...
   2. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / common directory for steampipe mods

Hi Cheeseh,

Is there a way to adjust the spacing between waypoints with the autowaypoint system? For more open areas & big maps, it drops a lot of waypoints. I played around with the rcbot_wpt_pathdist setting, and found they are spaced under 250 and a setting of about 300 works good for the current spacing. I like the default setting of 400 for manual waypointing, as I usually space the waypoints out more than autowaypoint does.

[edit]
Oh, one other question about autowaypointing with autopaths enabled. Emotional has done a few waypoints with autowaypointing, and i've been checking some of them, and there are a lot of near vertical paths, or paths from the ground to a higher place. Probably from jumping down from a high place (window), & some wpts/paths are mid-air. Will this cause any problems for rcbot2, effect their performance some way? They seem to handle it better than rcbot1 would, at least i didn't notice them trying to climb the walls too much. rcbot1 would usually only autopath in the down direction, i think?

Is there anything you can do about the bots not seeing through glass windows (dod:s)? If not, would it be possible to have the mg's pop off a quick burst when they can't mount at an mg wpt? Not sure what could be done with the sniper, unless you just have them waste a round at every sniper location? There are just so many good mg & sniper locations behind glass, the bots can't do anything until the glass is broke, then they work good...

Every time I start a new rcw, i can't decide what to do at the glass windows. I waypointed around some, but not all of them...

Thanks,
max
