Hello fellow RCbot2 users. I have a few dods custom maps I would like waypointed and I just can not figure it out. For the life of me its so dang confusing . If someone would waypoint them for me I would be willing to pay for it. I run two DODS dedi servers using the RCbots and they are the cats meow ! The speedup plugin was the icing on the cake ! They are something this game needed eight years ago . I have said before I wish there was a donate button to click for all this hard work . Add me on Steam as My_time . If no one has time I understand as from what I tried to do to I see it is rather time consuming . Thanks .

There seems to be a plugin for just about anything! I guess you find most of them through allied modders?

dod_snow wpts is Just a warm up wpting work reason why it's so noobishly done LoL!
I've fully re-wpt it already after finally discovering where the freakin middle flag was located.
It used up all 1000+ wpts just to make sure bots dont' get bump on an un-wpted area and loose their bearing.


I think you meant dod_suron, right unsure.gif ? I played dod_snow_map last nite, and it was quite fun from the allied side. Took me a while to get that 3rd allied flag between the hedges. I played w/o the speedup plugin, otherwise I would not of had a chance. It seems like flag placement favors the axis? I was disappointed to see there was no team scoring on the scoreboard after playing it. So, couldn't tell who had won the match (maybe there is a scoreboard plugin? rolleyes.gif). Those first flags inside the bunkers may be impossible to cap? Anyways, the rcw is very well done, thanks... smile.gif

Could have been easier if autowaypoint was working and auto path distance can't go above 500 I think so I really had to manually connect the last remaning wpts manually.


What was the problem with autowaypoint? The waypoint spacing? connections? For me, it seemed to work well on parts of churchyard, but for wide open areas, the spacing seems to close together, think I measured it at about 200? I'd like to use it most for wide open areas, but it places to many wpts on big maps. For wide open areas, I think wpt spacing should be closer to 350 or 400. I can understand why cheeseh set it up this way (close spacing), as it will be functional in all areas of a map (narrow/tight and wide open areas). Inside buildings, I prefer to manually place wpts around obstacles. Doorways (and stairs) usually need tweaking if autowaypointed, even though it's easy to delete and place new wpts with autopathing on. I guess what I'm trying to say is, if the spacing of autowaypoint was wider, it would be most useful for outdoors & open areas, and not placing a huge number of wpts. It would be nice if there was an adjustment for it, or perhaps a second mode (autowaypoint2) with wider spacing. Any comments/thoughts? rolleyes.gif

btw, I think when you are finished with these rcw's, you should make a post(s) in the dods waypoints forum, for them... Think I might try the snow_map again tonite, with the speedup plugin, to see how bots clean my clock. heh heh... tongue.gif
