when i was adding the command list the ai's decided that they wouldn't follow it and would drive around in circles.

As far as I recall, the AI in Halo:CE and vehicles don't mix, they weren't intended to need to drive them when the game was made, therefore aren't set up for it.

ok to make them drive in a path u have to use scrips
example:

(script startup ANYNAME
(vehicle_load_magic NAMEVEHICLE "" (ai_actors ENCOUNTER/SQUADS))
)


ANY NAME= name of youre script can be what ever
NAMEVEHICLE=the name of the vehicle in sapien
encounter= name of encounter
aquads= name of your squad

finished script:
(script startup lol
(vehicle_load_magic hog1 "" (ai_actors elite/W1drive))
)

wen tried wat u said i compiled script in sapien and got this error
01.06.11 14:23:37 [hog line 1] the value of this expression (in a slot) can never be used.: driving

01.06.11 14:23:37 recompiling scripts after scenarios were merged.
01.06.11 14:23:37 this left parenthesis is unmatched.: (script startup hog driving

if you want to name your script with two words, you need to link them up, ie. hog_driving.
otherwise the compiler will recognise the two words as two seperate values, and result in this error.

if there is any problem with my command line please tell me.
set radius: 5
enter vehicle as driver if within 5
go to point 0 keep moving
go to point 1 keep moving
go to point 2 keep moving
go to point 3 keep moving
loop to #2 always

edit:btw is this what the script should look like
(script startup hog_driving
(vehicle_load_magic bacon""(ai_actors hog/driver))
)

go to point 0 keep moving
go to point 1 keep moving
go to point 2 keep moving
go to point 3 keep moving
loop to #2 always
be sure that the points are not behind the vehicle or it wont move and check ai can side step in the $$$ section of your vehicle and it should work


the script is right

jst got this from debug after sapien compiling
01.06.11 14:46:24 [hog_driving line 2] this is not a valid object name.: bacon""(ai_actors hog/driver))

01.06.11 14:46:24 recompiling scripts after scenarios were merged.
01.06.11 14:46:24 this is not a valid object name.: bacon""(ai_actors hog/driver))

are you sure youre vehicle's name in sapien is bacon lol

yeh i just checked
ill change it and give that a go

edit: still doesn't work

edit 2: this is current error
01.06.11 15:16:20 [hog_driving line 2] this is not a valid object name.: warthog""(ai_actors hog/driver))

01.06.11 15:16:20 this is not a valid object name.: warthog""(ai_actors hog/driver))
and can u give me the full $$$vehicle$$$ settings like sidestep and max speed

o i think your the warthog and the quotes are together so do it like this warthog "" not like this warthog"" im not very good with scripz :d
Edited by milkkookie on Jan 5, 2011 at 11:41 PM

the script compiles good now but he still drives around in circles.
Edited by jackotheblah on Jan 5, 2011 at 11:31 PM

but is he in the vehicle

yes he is in the vehicle,
but when he go's to drive off he turns around in circles

it should be working
uncheck flying in $$$ vehicles section
check ai driver enabled
uncheck ai unused
make sure you only have one guy in your squad
make sure under squads staring pionts you specified the commands to folllow
and your ai i dont rember if its the actor or the varient but check fearless pathfinding ithink
and theres other things go check the ai driving warthog tutorial it shows you how to prepare the vehicle im to lazy to type all of that right now
http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=2298

i did everything the tutorial said and now he drives to the first point and keeps going straight.
also i cant find fearless pathfinding but i will check again

make sure the points are no to close and not to far about five warthogs apart

he still drives straight, would you recommend a good ai tag.

Edited by jackotheblah on Jan 6, 2011 at 12:14 AM

i dosent matter how smart or dumb the ai are as long as they have commands the will follow them but i dont know why it dosent work
trying getting a better ai tag who knows it might work
