Sorry for this load of post, but this will be my last one for now :P

My problem is, the Infection forms dont seem to move.

Command list doesnt work, moving points dont...


I've had this problem before, was never able to fix it though :|

Any help would be appreciated :)

Infection forms are counted as swarms, and as such, they do not move when told to (if you check the "go to" command and the "go to and face" commands, it says that it DOES NOT WORK FOR SWARMS (emphasis from Sapien itself, not mine)).

What you want to do is simply set them to move in a certain direction. Place them close to where you want them to be, but out of sight of the player, and then set them to move in a direction for a certain amount of time using the "move immediate" or "move in direction" commands.

Is there a way to not make them ''swarm''?

Not that i really care, i got enough info :)

There is, actually. Simply go in the actor tag for the infection form, and uncheck "swarm" in the very top box. It is one of the options closer to the bottom.

In guerilla?
because i cant find it in guerilla.

Here:


The ACTOR tag, not the actor varient.

Of course, it'll change the behavior of the flood infection forms, so they don't charge en masse at enemies.

wat? no charging?

That fails, Would be perfect if they still attacked :P

They will charge, but one by one. Swarm makes them group up and charge en masse.

so.. if you set Swarm off, they attack one by one?

That would be odd, because my Elite Energy swords arent a swarm, and still manage to attack both to 1 person, and eventually die because they hit ea other lol.

No no no. Having two people attack one target is NOT a swarm. Look at a swarm of bugs. They move together, grouped up. Same with a swarm of flood.

Then the flood is perhaps even better off withouth swarm. Spread more, you know :P

But my ideas are useless aslong as my noob AI wont go through the tunnels xd

Have you tried a command list?

Command list are crap. they just run through the enemies withouth stopping to shoot. Not using command lists.. unless you can make them stop, shoot, and then move on.

Says the person who used command lists in his last map. Do you even know why I want you to try using a command list? I want to see if it's possible for AI to walk there. If they can't, then I know the problem.

Yes i used command list in that map.
That was because i wanted to get them to the center of the map, and then move along.

still not happy abouth that map anywayz, its way to small and not detailed :\

But okay, i try command list.

Status:
Fail.

Set 3 Points;

The third point is inside the tunnel, they run to point 2, but then they just stop, not continuing to point 3.

Yup. I think I know the problem. The same occurred in Blood Gulch and my "test map". The warthog would refuse to drive any further. Be sure to check "Manual BSP index" in the command list, and set the index in the box.

Can't you tick "show initiative" or something like that?

Enabling iniative makes them not move at all, iniative will let them do whatever they want :S


Abouth the manual BSP index... to wich number to set? i have no idea.

The index of the BSP. Open up the scenario in Guerilla, scroll to the bottom, and find the number corresponding with your BSP. The first BSP is titled 0, second is 1, and so forth.

Okay then my number is 3 :)

lemme try it right now

Ugh, still doesnt work.

Well the whole idea of my map isnt going very well, so i just cancel it. i will search for another map :)

Does that mean that your BSP is the fourth?

there is;
B40_A
B40_B
B40_C
'alot more'

I use _C, wich is the third, so i suppose the number is 3.

No. I said, the first BSP is number 0, second is one, and so forth.

lol. just... lol.


lets just lemme try that :P

Still failed...

Man i wish you could check it out somehow, what the error was :S
