Melee AI Guard

by Justin Nelson · in Torque Game Engine · 08/02/2009 (11:45 am) · 6 replies

Ok I've been using Ai Guard resource with the Melee system(server side melee system I think). The AI Guard resource works before I implement the engine changes for the melee system, but after I make the changes for the melee system the ai stops attacking; they just walk around and ignore me. Why is this?

What changes are made by the melee system that prevents the ai guard from working?

Does anyone have an ai system that works with the server side or simple melee system?

maybe the bot think that you not are an enemy, or in the datablock of your player, he have the AIignorethis or similar property set to true...

I'm not using melee officially, though i've got the A.C.K. (Advanced Character Kit) installed and it uses the Server-Side Melee System.

I have the option to use the melee functions at any time and I have not noticed any problems with the Enhanced AI Guard Resource.

Thanks for the replies I will try that Javier, but where did you get the A.C.K from? G.E.C.K.

Ok I have the pack now, but I still notice something. With the default character the targeting works fine, but with the new characters the ai will target me half the time and the other half it will ignore. I notice that the ai is looking way down to target me instead of looking at me normally, so what I think is that something is wrong with the way that the ai is targeting me. Does anyone have this problem with any characters or can help? Thanks.

I also have a problem with the Server Side Melee Resource. When I attack at the same time as a bot the game crashes. I think it has something to do with the swords intersecting or something.
