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*/);
}

shouldn't it be m_pBot->speed() , not buttons ??? Its in your code.

[Salvax]

OMG ! What a dumm I am !!! THX A LOT !!!

PS:I delet
if ( (m_pLastEnemy != NULL) && (currentWaypoint() == -1) ) , and it works 100% now !!!!!!!

Now BOT would like to sprint not only when he is attacking or being attacked !!!! THX , Captain, now the work is tweaking the time parameter in SPEED:

void CBot :: speed ()
{
if ( m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_SPEED) )
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_SPEED,0/* time to press*/,0.25/* hold time*/,0.15/*let go time*/); // Speed for BOT by Salvax

would u give me ur advice ? I think maybe the hold time should be shorter, what do u think , Captain ?

[Cheeseh]

it doesn't matter, it that function is being called every frame, then the button is held until the statement is unreachable, which in your code it isn't.

Hi.. I'm running your version on my server now and it works very well good job Salvax...
But what happens to your code when the cheesy dude releases his version? Do you guys fo it togehter or what?

Salvax: Could you also please make the bots change to pistol, crowbare, stunstick or crossbow when they are under water?? Seems like they don't wanna get up lol drowning like hell... So at least give them a chance to shoot someone before they drown hehe...

Thanks for keeping this mod alive Salvax and the cheesy dude
