___2007.04.30___

Fixed: BOTs don't always duck while attacking (this game is not counter-strike , LOL )

Added:
Ladders can be used (need improvement)
Randomly switch weapon while attacking (not only switch weapon while looping on waypoints)
Randomly change firing speed
Randomly fire @ wall while BOTs feel boring (no enemy in sight)

the problem is how to let bot focus on one action , for example:

in bot_waypoint.cpp

CODE

void CWaypointNavigator :: updatePosition ()
...
..
.
m_pBot->speed();
m_pBot->Ladder();
m_pBot->Randomjump();
m_pBot->campwalk();

so if bot is running on a ladder, the bot also jumps even i set the jump action as a random action , then bot drops from the ladder.

so it's with the campwalk action and sprint action, bot executes the 2 actions @ the same time even both are random actions ,

as i defined in bot.cpp :

CODE

void CBot :: campwalk ()
{
    float fHoldTimeCamp = RandomFloat(0.5,0.8);
    if ( RandomInt(300,400) > 389 && m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_SPEED) && m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_DUCK) && !m_pButtons->holdingButton(IN_SPEED) )
        m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_DUCK,0.1/* time to press*/,fHoldTimeCamp/* hold time*/,0/*let go time*/);
}

void CBot :: speed ()
{
    float fHoldTimeSprint = RandomFloat(0.3,0.5);
    if ( RandomInt(1,10) < 5 && m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_SPEED) && m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_DUCK) && !m_pButtons->holdingButton(IN_DUCK) )
        
        m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_SPEED,0/* time to press*/,fHoldTimeSprint/* hold time*/,0/*let go time*/);        
}

it seems ( ! m_pButtons->holdingButton(IN_?????) ) is not working ? Thx Captain, and long to see ur reply !

Heyyo,

Great stuff man.

I've tried setting up the ladders like you have them setup, but they just kinda dangle at the bottom of the ladders, I updated the waypoints that I made before, so they are much better than the original waypoints included in the RCBot release, so if you want to do up some ladders and release it with your bot? give her a go, and then post back here so I can see exactly how you set them up.
