Ns Bot Sux

<div class="IPBDescription">It sucks alot!</div> Feel free to add to this endless list of bot fallacies!

1) The bots cant open doors
2) When you give them welders, they run around in circles and cry for ammo
3) When you open the door for an alien squad, they slaughter you, even if they are only gorges
4) Marine bots see alien bots in incredibly obscure places, no LOS at ALL.
5) Marines have incredible accuracy, if they weren't bots, I would report them for aimbot usage cuz 3 can take out an onos with an LMG no problem.

    I've fixed about twenty annoying nav problems with the bot already but not released yet because all the little blighters are now walking about like amoebas into the same waypoint over and over and I don't know why, meaning I have to redo all the nav code and stuck code <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    1) The bots cant open doors
    they should! hehe only the doors with buttons that dont have a correct origin they cannot open and I can't fix that, its a mapping issue.

    2) When you give them welders, they run around in circles and cry for ammo
    fixed

    3) When you open the door for an alien squad, they slaughter you, even if they are only gorges
    that's what I want to see <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> maybe they should run way instead? <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    4) Marine bots see alien bots in incredibly obscure places, no LOS at ALL.
    implementing.... please please wait man, this IS supposed to be beta still you know,

    5) Marines have incredible accuracy, if they weren't bots, I would report them for aimbot usage cuz 3 can take out an onos with an LMG no problem.
    working on accuracy.....

    as you probably know Im kinda pi$$ed because I have to redo all this stuff

    I mentioned a couple issues I came across with your bots in your stickied thread about the NS Bots. I am patient enough to wait, I just hope you get the bugs worked out and release some updates before you lose interest in the project. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    A lot of times cool things (like your bots) end up falling by the wayside and are never actually completed in any really useful form because the creator loses interest. Maybe that's why some people seem impatient - they want to see it completed. Then again some people are just whiners. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I just wanna say thanks to Cheeseh. I know the bot has bugs (as he said...it's in BETA), but it is a decent bot. Especially for such a complex game. No other HL mod has been like this one, and lots of people said a bot couldn't be done thanks to the complexity, but Cheeseh did it.

    Keep up the good work Cheeseh!!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I, for one, am eagerly anticipating your much improved bots.

    hmm, lets see whats wrong with this post:

    1) please don't flame

    2) please tell us WHAT BOT YOUR TALKING ABOUT

    3) don't flame

    4) don't make your self look like a tool


    I have played with bots that were good, they opened doors, they had error built in, they worked (so long as you read what they could and could not do)

    now pleas, think before you post

    LOL Chill man he's dissing his own bots, I think he has that right. You can easily deduce this from looking at the 2nd posters post. Maybe you need to learn to read threads before posting....

    lol /me feels realy bad (please note there was no second post when I posted)

    I apologize, I didn't realize that he was one of the people working on bots

    (this is assuming that he actualy was refering to his own bots and that those other 2 posts were not sarchastic)
  • aN-AzraelaN-Azrael Join Date: 2002-11-29 Member: 10265Members
    Umm.. the 2nd poster was sarcastic, I am sure. He was saying, "alright, if you can bash like this, let's see if you can do better". Could be wrong, but I don't think so.

    ats what I thought ( uppon reading it and also searching this guys posts and seeing nothing on bots before this, also seeing how as Cheeseh is the bot guy that I know of)

    so I revert back to my first post untill some one proves me wrong

    Am I lock happy or is General littered today?

    Folks, for anyone who hasn't got it yet: Those bots have been developed by some truly great guys within the last six weeks. They are <b>far</b> from finished. Complaing about them not yet being up to par, especially in such an insulting way, won't get your topic far.
