by Steve Gibson, Apr 27, 2002 7:59am PDTDropping off Dutchie at the airport today and heading up to Dallas for the weekend with the woman. Probably gonna be quiet around here during the weekend as we usually attempt to escape computers during these times. Usually doesnt work out. Held off on that GeForce4 giveaway thing I mentioned earlier for a couple more days due to the unpredictability of things around here. Planning it for Monday now. It'll be a 4600 card. Mongolian BBQ is good stuff. Movie: She's not that kind of girl, Booger. , Why? Does she have a penis?

I don't think doom9.org is really well suited to this kind of discussion. Can someone point me towards a good site that might be able to help me?
Thanks

// Determine ideal attack distance and range
switch(bs->cur_ps.weapon)
{
case WP_GAUNTLET: attack_dist = 0; attack_range = 0; break;
default: attack_dist = 140; attack_range = 40; break;
}
So for every weapon but the gauntlet, the bot wants to be between 180 and 100 units away. In real life terms, that's like being 6 feet away. The lightning gun has a range of 786 units, so 140 units is pretty damn close.
If you give a bot a railgun and they attack someone with the rocket launcher, the bot will actually move in really close to be in the 180-100 distance zone, letting the other player hit them with rockets aimed at the floor for blast damage. How pathetic is that!?!
Now here's the best part... This code is take from the BotAttackMove() function, which is what the bot uses to "dodge" when it has decided to fight an enemy without pursuing any other goals (like picking up a nearby item). So if the bot wants to pick up anything in the middle of the fight, it immediately stops all dodging and bee-lines for its target. Now does it make sense why Q3A bots were so easy to hit?
I just finished writing movement code that lets bots dodge whenever the bot sees an enemy, even if the bot has an destination it was moving towards. Still debugging it, but the code looks most promising. I think I can use this code to teach bots to both dodge incoming missiles (especially plasma) and strafe-jump. But I'll have to see how much time I have to write all this code... There's an endless list of optimizations I could add to Q3A bot code.

E-mail sent to me from them: "The new ship date for Morrowind PC will be 5/1/2002. As always,
EBgames.com will not charge your credit card until we ship your order."
Okay, so why the fuck did you charge me already for it? I got an overdraft fee because of this, and I have to pay intrest on that. I had put money in the bank on this friday, but that won't show up untill monday. So I called them, lady tells me that they do pre-charge for some large orders. Well that's not what you told me in the e-mail, so I hung up. I e-mailed the bitches back, they better fucking give me somthing back, because I'm gonna have to go to the bank to get this shit all fixed.
