Thing height refers to the index of FOF. FOF are sorted by top height, lowest
to highest. Set Object Flip to sort highest to lowest.
If the waypoint thing set Object Flip, it will be placed on the bottom of the
FOF. The sorting remains the same though.
Set Ambush to raise the waypoint to the same z position.
- Massive improvements to object steering -- they do it more often and more strongly
- Steering towards hurtable players is now weighted on acceleration, and steering away from painful players is weighted on handling
- Bots now can get & use Thunder Shield
- Bots now know how to detontate Eggman Item explosions early
- Top speed gets a buff to make up for them losing lots of speed without drifting, weighted more heavily towards low acceleration characters
Thing type is the front texture x offset.
Tag here refers to the thing's angle.
For example, you have two sectors tagged to one FOF. Put a ring in each sector,
give it angle 0. Then give a line in the FOF control sector special 80 front
texture x offset 300. Those rings will spawn on the FOF instead of on the
sector floor.
Also works for object flip and slopes.
- Steer against objects more often
- Reduce steering toward rings
- Only steer towards items/rings in front of them
- Be slightly less trigger happy with using rings/shoes while boosting
Bots will steer *towards* rings, items, ring-stingable players, and players with lower weight. They will steer *away* from projectiles, traps, players using damaging items (such as invincibility), players with shields, and players with higher weight.
- Make ring usage smarter
- Ring usage threshold varies between characters (Tails will be more willing to dump rings, Metal will hold onto them)
- Decrease ring use threshold when they have a speed boost (tethering)
- Decrease ring use threshold when slowed down more than usual
- Properly implement Triple Sneaker & Rocket Sneaker usage
- Use smallest radius of all waypoints being predicted, to improve precision
- Bots never use prev waypoints
- Use sneaker if held for too long without a proper use
- Use sneaker if losing too much speed
- Use sneaker if you have another boost (tether, boosters)
- Add triple sneaker & rocket sneaker support
- Don't go towards shortcut waypoints without a shortcut item
- Bots get naturally better handling
Mobjs get deleted and loaded from net save. The mobjs in the waypoints need to load into the correct waypoints again.
This doesn't save/load the entire waypoints, so they still cannot be edited/added/removed mid-game.
- Only look for players who can pick up the item. Serves as a subtle tell for other players holding onto items, and lets you see the canon color more often
- Held eggman item uses black instead of player color
- Fix karma items not animating
