Path noding problem please help :(

[rohitggarg]

It also has the same prob that it is not pathnoded if it is in the air ...

@Ferali - Can you please think of something that can be useful in this situation. All that is required is that it gets pathnoded even if it is in air...

@Alex and the ones who aim for standalone BotBurguer: Sorry, but I totally forgot to make it yesterday lol
As promissed, "only botburguer" version:

BotBurguer.rar

It also has the same prob that it is not pathnoded if it is in the air ...

What do you mean in the air? For bots or flying pawns? If it's for bots, the only way is using the botburguers and jumpspots together with lift exists (Creavion had a problem in making the bots jumping to go get an item, and this actor solved things out, making them "smarter"), or with translocator spots (don't quite remember the name of that one).

[Creavion]

For force the bot to jump, you need to place an inventory/trapspringer to get the bot attired with this stuff, and it need to be with the lift jump you want.

Does this really work or is this only a hypothesis it could work?

For force the bot to jump, you need to place an inventory/trapspringer to get the bot attired with this stuff, and it need to be with the lift jump you want.

In that case the BotBurguer would do that job better (after all it follows the base you described), since it's highly tweakable, triggerable and timed.
But of course, all depends on the mapper needs.

[Creavion]

No, I am pretty sure (95 %) you can not teach bots in ut1 to liftjump.

[rohitggarg]

The script for the same has already been written post UT2k4

Maybe we can add the same to UT1 and hope it works.....

[Creavion]

This "bots - can - do - the - liftjump" is native coded afaik, ....so you can not solve it over uscript.

The only way to make bots do liftjumps in UT1, is by force them to jump at a certain spot, but in that case the bot would be really "WTF?!", and it wouldn't try to move properly forward or backwards to complete the jump (the bot would just fall and die if it's too high).
Unless there is something we don't know or that I didn't see properly that could make bots liftjump, since I am NOT a Bot AI expert either.

[Creavion]

I think you would bang your head against a brick wall. UT1s Bots are just to stupid. And in UT2004 the Liftjump setting is directly included in the LiftExit Actors or so.

[rohitggarg]

Yea true .... bots are really stupid in UT1 or else this thread wouldn't have existed altogether..

I don't think a bot can anyways fire at someone if he is doing a liftjump anyways so its close to useless making our heads bang for just making that bot jump thru the lift. The only advantage would be he would be able to reach certain spots that he wont be able to reach unless a lift jump is executed... I don't think mappers place a restriction that "Only liftjump will allow you to progress further, else forget it..". Liftjump is more of a trick move and a combat style for some real expert shock whores and snipies..

Tx for the burger bro....Now i will enjoy the party

Hey! Lift Jumping is used by more than snipers and shock whores! The Armor in DM-Barricade can only be reached with Low G or LiftJumping

[rohitggarg]

Yea that's why i said its a trick move... You have got extra points for trick moves ain't it...

[Creavion]

Maybe, I dont know, but the mainclass "Bots" is part of UnrealShare like you said, UT uses "Bot" (Botpack).

[rohitggarg]

Yea that's right. I am also trying to write a pathnode so that those idiot bots can jump on that

Will post if i am able to finish it....

[rohitggarg]

Whoppie!!

I used lift center as the base class and was able to make jump point which will make a bot jump for going to the other lift exit ..
