X-Vehicles with bot AI does not seem to respect GameInfo's AssessBotAttitude. This becomes a problem, for instance, in a gametype like Mush Match, where AssessBotAttitude is the only thing preventing bots from behaving just like they would in deathmatch.

Not really get it. What a exact problem?

Bots in vehicles have a propensity to attack other players in DeathMatchPlus or subclasses (maybe to do with bTeamGame=false?) even if AssessBotAttitude is suppoesd to prevent that.

[Buggie]

Vehicle follow Enemy field of bot.
Need test case for which I can look at it and possible change something.

They do the same in MonsterHunt, despite being on the same team.

The accuracy of the Jeep's 'gun' is a little off - this is taken in LostInTime

Unfortunate as there are several Skaarj spawned here that are difficult to hit before they have done some damage.

Not sure which Jeep but it is located in this very area.

Maybe not, the Jeeps don't seem to recognize walls when shooting. Could be targeting Skaarj in a different room further into the base.

It's one of the reasons I prefer more open areas with a lot of space.

Perhaps, though I had trouble targetting the Skaarj that were in this room as well - that shot is just an example and there were only a few locations in that room where the shots were accurate (going to the crosshair/dot).

My love of HallOfGiants is well known, and I just remembered that when Dr. Evil made his 4-way CTF version he widened all the paths... kinda like Buggie does with his CTF edits.

Now, bots tend to drive over the edge of stuff a lot so I don't know how this would work... but that is too tempting not to at least try XV in there!

I noticed some strange behaviour when team viewing (by F5) : the order of spectated players is not as expected when these players are in a vehicle. That happened in all versions AFAIR.

[Buggie]

Yes. And this can not be fixed without modify PlayerPawn or similar core classes.

In fact order of spectate is same if you not switch to spectate vehicle cam. If you switch to it, then position of spectate players is lost and any attempt switch to next player simple start enumerate players again from scratch.
This is fundamental issue and can not be fixed on exists UT code base, without change core files.

F5 viewing gets complicated when XV is involved, if you pause on a vehicle long enough the next time you hit F5 it will take you back to the beginning as though that was the 1st time you hit it.

Stretch back had Nelsona path a massive map for standard play & SLV, intended for UTDMT usage, but I'm currently testing it for XV...
