How do I get ai to follow commands when I am in sapien?
Edited by Killeryoshi on Mar 25, 2009 at 05:43 PM

Like a command list? Hit the `/~ button, and type in:

ai_command_list [name of AI encounter] [name of command list]

Replace [name of AI encounter] with the name of the AI encounter and [name of command list] with the name of the command list.

Can someone like add me to xfire and please tell me like how to make ai look there, or ai shoot there. Xfire is 14grunt no caps and no spaces.

And I mean not like what gamma said above I mean like make it happen in the map without me having to use dev or console.

Sapien already has dev and console by default....

I know but I want to like make the ais do commands like shoot here.

If you want them to shoot at a direct location, you must tell them when to execute it. Otherwise, you have to use a script.

Where to execute it?

In a devmode command.

I mean to make it a part of the map without having to execute it every time in game.

Then, you set up the AI command list and a script....

cmon, seriously guys you are being jerks.
heres how its done. you go into the AI folder in sapien. there is a sub-folder in here called command list. make a new command list via the new instance button. name your command list something relevant, then click the plus sign to expand it. two more folders will appear, commands and points (or something like that) the shoot here/look here commands (among other things) are found here.

when you want to run the command list in your map, you need to create a script calling the ai_command_list function.

advice about command lists, get acquainted with scripting first. you cant make command lists happen in-game without a script, and scripting is essentially a programming language.

and just because I am in a good mood, here are some useful resources.
