Waypoint type for doors in DOD:S, Specifically the new dod_omaha (2019) map. Options

[d3m0n]

I am currently creating waypoints for a new release of dod_omaha (2019).

The problem I am running into is this map uses a lot of doors to get through the map. I read through the waypoint readme and looked on waypoint type but didn't see anything for using doors. Specifically speaking, using the action button to open it.

Is there something I can do to get bots to use doors or am I out of luck?

Yeah, functioning doors might be a problem, I don't think I've waypointed a map that has them? There is no "door" wpt that I know of... I remember genmac modifying a map because of doors, but I think Cheeseh added some door code after that? Try doing:

CODE

"rcbot util search"

on the doors & post what it finds...

Look for func_button or func_door, it probably needs that for the code to work...

It's not likely, but check for func_breakable, too. (breakable waypoints?)

You could put openslater on the doors, if there is an alternate path, but it doesn't sound like there is?

[edit] If there is a func_button or door, do you hear them try to press use key? I see the wpt looks very close to the door and bot is crouched, you might try moving the wpt away from the door a bit, a step or two, so the bot has time to react & press use key and is facing the door. I've had problems with other bots & doors (sometimes it's finicky doors), when a bot can't seem to open the door when they get to close, before pressing use, or against the door (facing wrong perhaps).

Important: Before moving the wpt, Be sure you have one path only through the door.

Hope that helps?

Thanks for the detailed response madmax! This is what I could find regarding the doors with the rcbot ulti search command.

[RCBot] (145) D:97.95 C:'prop_door_rotating', Mid:195, Mn:'models/cscgroupe/props/gg_blockhausbunker/bunkerdoor01_body.mdl' Health=0, Tm:0, Fl:36, Spd=0.00

Though, I am not sure how I would use that with waypoint type? Or does it mean it should technically be working properly?

I also don't hear them trying to use the action button.
