Do bots sees through bushes, Trees, smoke?

Post by Lt._Dossier-1 »

I have a simple question do bots sees through bushes, trees, smoke?

Because some of player said they are fixed and some not fixed.

Only handheld and ugl smoke at the moment that they cannot see through it.
Also they currently see through vehicle smoke launchers and mortar smoke which I'll try to work on at some point.

There is one idea about how to potentially resolve Vegetation and Trees by attaching an aiTemplate using the same setup as the destroyable bridges but it hasn't been tested.

OMG it would be so sweet to have a solution for that long standing limitation.

Finally forest/jungle maps would be "playable" with bots without having to lower their skills to pathetic levels.

I hope you guys can test such implementation in the near future ;) :-o

Was wondering about that myself so its nice to see the confirmation about handheld and grenade launcher smoke. I tested a AI vision blocking smoke grenade for Forgotten Hope but I don't know yet if they ever used it.

When playing with bots in lots of vegetation I just spend all my time crawling around prone :-P
