PLZ test it, Captain ! (U can downlaod below ,ALL latest modified source and DLL uploaded)

After the secondary attack code, i added some new codes of AUX Power for bot,(of cause my new code is based on bot button again, this time i think it 's not as good as i thought, because bot only use AUX power to rush when he wants to kill an enemy or he is under attack. I think let bot rushing is a random thing, so i need time to try if i can change the bot button thing to random bot action.

Now i bring u a small problem:

i think these code below make bot stand and jump on one point to shoot his enemy, would u plz adjust the time value so the bot can be standing there for a short time. then bot can take more time to use AUX power to rush and flank. (i tried a whole day to adjust the time value, but in vain)

bot.cpp

void CBot :: jump ()
{
if ( m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_JUMP) )
{
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_JUMP,0/* time to press*/,0.5/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
// do the trademark jump & duck
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_DUCK,0.2/* time to press*/,0.3/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
}
}

void CBot :: duck ( bool hold )
{
if ( hold || m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_DUCK) )
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_DUCK,0.0/* time to press*/,1.0/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
}

The bot only moves if it has a valid path, To obtain a valid path the bot must used the CFindPathTask task and find a waypoint or entity. When it reaches its goal it will stop until it can obtain a new CFindPathTask, which will update the bots path and the bot will start moving around again.

For example before attacking a bot can find a path (using CFindPathTask) to a good spot to attack the enemy from. It will update the bots new route/path and then CAttackTask will take over, because the route is valid, whilst moving towards that route the bot will attack. But when the bot reaches that spot where he wanted to go first, he will stop. So he needs a new path if you want it to keep moving. Unfortunately I don't know if I have implemented any non-interrupt methods for CFindPathTask tasks to run before a path has been found.
