I finally got .85 installed, and I must say WOW, great job Cheeseh. The speed is perfectly matched to player speed. It seems to of enhanced the random sprinting by increasing the speed. I still have more play testing to do, but I think I like it this way, makes the matches much more challenging. Users have griped about the speed being to slow for a long time now, now that it's fixed to the correct speed, we complain about that? Well I guess thats to be expected...
![]() But hey guys, the variable speed cvar sounds like a good idea (or beginner, normal, fast, insane, heheh...), but if the speed is to fast for you now, you can use the sourcemod speedup plugin to slow the bots down, it works... sm_speedup_speed 1.0 is equal to current speed, no change. Around .6 to .8 is the old rcbot2 speed. At the speedup plugin default (1.47), bots zoom around so fast it's hilarious... ![]() Think i'll go back to the default profile settings and see how it works? We may need to turn our profiles down now, if it seems to hard... @ Emotional Does it not work, lets say, to set all axis bots to way lower settings in the bot profiles? Sounds like what you are asking for is a global override of the settings in the profiles? I think Cheeseh set it up with profiles, to simulate the variable skills of human players. I'm not saying it's a bad idea as an option, but it seems that would defeat the purpose of having profiles...? |

Cheeseh,
I added waypointer screen credits for the dods stock waypoints. I thought at least the stock map rcw's should have credits. Sorry, I can't help with TF2 or HL2:dm yet... ![]() I'm patching genmac's latest donner rcw and may tweak flash, so those will follow soon (day or so). Here is what I did so far. The waypoints I used were from the installers and as far as I could tell they are the latest, except avalanche and anzio (genmac's anzio, I may include this in next pack as an alternate rcw). Most were included with Rcbot2 versions .74 thru .85, except where noted... CODE MAP NAME Screen Credit Original rcw size New rcw size dod_anzio Cheeseh 25457 25521 dod_argentan genmac 9228 9292 dod_avalanche Cheeseh 18744 (.74 - .80) 18808 cheeseh, I think you updated the rcw for .85, but I could not add you as author, it was already filled in as 000, so I did the older rcw... dod_colmar Cheeseh 20235 (.85) 20235 cheeseh, I think you updated the rcw, for some reason this one worked, it was blank dod_jagd Cheeseh 20488 20552 dod_kalt genmac 12221 12285 I did a very small tweak to kalt, I set yaw facing at top of 2 ladders dod_palmaro genmac 9970 10034 Screen Credit = How it will show on screen after "Waypoints by" I checked this in the forums, so I think it's all correct, but if anything is wrong, please let me know, i'll fix it...

cheers I'll add these to next release.
Okay perhaps I will need to add a speed reduce cvar hehe I'm mainly working on TF2 right now. At the moment I'm working on scrapping the scripts entirely and automatically pick up capture points, so bots will work on tc_hydro, cp_gravelpit and don't need annoying scripts yay |

Very cool !!! : "reduce speed cvar"
![]() ![]() I'm mainly working on TF2 right now. At the moment I'm working on scrapping the scripts entirely and automatically pick up capture points (...) I sincerely hope this it's not a bad idea, or that hinders/disturb you, mr.Cheeseh (read below): Once you're devoting to alter the structure of the Rcbot2 scripts for TF2 ("scrapping the scripts entirely"), I ask, please, that evaluates the idea of implementing, too, "cvar"s for Dod:Source (after finishing with TF2), with goal of enabling user-choice between Rcbot-behaviors styles (I thought on two): one "simulate a 'multiplayer-match-behavior' " (pattern-style: common video-game) and other "simulate a 'more-realistic-combat-behaviors' " (pattern-style: based upon reality). Even if the cvar suggested is still not working (inactive), the variable is already implemented and could be useful in the future works, WHEN / IF [!!!] you approve these idea ("two different styles of behavior" for Rc-bots). [ Remembering: I suggested ''two'' styles, from on the dilemma of "reaction-behaviors to grenades"; to revise the arguments, go to: http://rcbot.bots-united.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=1879&view=findpost&p=12800 and http://rcbot.bots-united.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=1879&view=findpost&p=12792 ] In time: Rc-bots are not performing the animation "throwing the hand-grenade" when they need or want to throw a hand-grenade against enemy positions. This applies so far only to "hand-grenade", I don't know if apply also to the "rifle-grenades". Has only been possible to see/notice the hand-grenade after it was throwed (happened to me: every time, perceive them on the floor). I think you forgot to link the animation to the correspondent act, I don't know well... . Thanks! ![]() [I using google translator, sorry] |

Bots sometimes freeze up looking at breakables until I or another bot breaks it (or they are killed) with rcbot2 .85.
I've been meaning to post this for some time now, first saw it on .8, it doesn't occur on .76. In .76 I think they will shoot over top until ammo is exhausted, then they break it melee if they couldn't hit it... But in .85 this happens instead? I don't think they have emptied thier clip, this first image is in flash spawn room. (rcbot debug images) The first time I noticed it, with rcbot2 version .8 dod_flash0083_3.jpg http://www7.zippyshare.com/v/98264947/file.html These images are all from .85, the conditions are usually the same as first image, but sometimes vary. Every time I break the breakable they will resume moving normally. Seems to be most all classes. The desk in the one image is not breakable, I broke the chair and the bot began moving again. rcbot2_debug_breakables.zip http://www64.zippyshare.com/v/91413716/file.html Will the rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos cvar correct this? I haven't changed it from the default setting. rcbot_shoot_breakable is set to 1. |

Try a value of 0.98 (10 degrees) |

the higher rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos is the less likely bots will shoot a breakable in front of them. Try a value of 0.98 (10 degrees) I finally got a bot to do it again at the default setting (.9). As soon as I entered "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos .98" in the console, the bot ignored the breakable & went on it's merry way ![]() ![]() It was intermittent/random and usually happens inside buildings where there is little or no action. So I added "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos .98" to my config.ini, and so far have not seen it occur again. Thanks for the tip... |

I finally got a bot to do it again at the default setting (.9). As soon as I entered "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos .98" in the console, the bot ignored the breakable & went on it's merry way ![]() ![]() It was intermitant/random and usually happens inside buildings where there is little or no action. So I added "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos .98" to my config.ini, and so far have not seen it occur again. Thanks for the tip... AND... the higher rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos is the less likely bots will shoot a breakable in front of them. Try a value of 0.98 (10 degrees) Four questions: 1) For that matter, I do not know if the value should be "." or ",". Example: "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos 0.98" or "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos 0,98"? 2) As for the variable "rcbot_shoot_breakable" (without "_cos"), what is the difference in relation to "rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos"? 3) Another question is: if I setting the value to ",98" (or ".98"), the bots leave completely aside the "break the breakable" function, or just reduce the frequency of this function? There is an optimum value - beyond the 0.98! -, so as to achieve these behavior-function without compromising the unique dynamics of bots? 4) On the proposals made in my post above [previous post: http://rcbot.bots-united.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=1879&view=findpost&p=12807], mr. Cheeseh, which outcome/resolution you got (obtained)? Thanks, guys! ![]() [I using google-translator, sorry for any misunderstanding...] |

Hi YuriFR,
1) Should be . not , (should be like... rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos .98) 2) rcbot_shoot_breakable is an enable or disable. If rcbot_shoot_breakable = 0 bots won't shoot breakables at all. rcbot_shoot_breakable_cos sets the angle, that bots will try to shoot the breakables. 3) Yeah, bots don't seem to interested in shooting the breakables at .98. Here are some googled values: cos(10 degrees) = 0.984807753 cos(25 degrees) = 0.906307787 cos(20 degrees) = 0.939692621 cos(30 degrees) = 0.866025404 I'm going to try some other values to see what works without them getting froze up (intermittently). It will take a while to test, as it took hours to duplicate the problem this last time at the default setting of .90. Funny thing is, I'd swear it was happening more frequent than that? Maybe it was the dll I was using? Now I'm using the latest .85 patch dll (for TF2)... Also, I don't think the freeze on breakable problem is happening in rcbot2 .76 at all? 4) I'll leave that one for Cheeseh, seems like a big project and complicated to me? Think he is working on TF2 improvements & fixes right now... ![]() |

hey madmax2, for bots freezing breakables is it a particular player class that does it mostly?

hey madmax2, for bots freezing breakables is it a particular player class that does it mostly? It can be very random, but I don't think one does it more than any other. I have images of axis mg, allied rifleman, and allied support (debug pics above ^^). Seems i've seen others too, but can't remember which ones. Since setting shoot_breakable_cos to .94 I may of only seen it once, and they will shoot breakables at that setting... [edit] I don't think it's related to the breakables, but I see bots blocked at doorways quite a lot in donner by NON-breakable furniture. They get stuck on top of the furniture that gets blown into doorways. It looks like they are trying to jump off, but keep banging their head and they stay in a standing position, and they never crouch. In this situation they need to crouch to get off the furniture. I've got some images i'll post so you can see what i'm talking about... |
