Talk about slack Soldier

Post by GolfBulb »

:shock:

My soldiers "all and imp" are jsut stadning there, doing nothing, its kinda funny cuz you hear them say "SNIPER! watch out" and there looking at a wall or smthing.

and the munge log only syas "Sniper.req, expecting bractet" twice

the BF2 log is 2 big, so i dont know how i can show you.

but most of them look like this
Message Severity: 2
.\Source\ConnectivityGraphFollower.cpp(382)
No valid positions for type [SOLDIER] radius [0.35] in node [Hub56]

Message Severity: 2
.\Source\ConnectivityGraphFollower.cpp(382)
No valid positions for type [SOLDIER] radius [0.50] in node [Hub49]

Message Severity: 2
.\Source\ConnectivityGraphFollower.cpp(382)
No valid positions for type [SOLDIER] radius [0.50] in node [Hub47]
could that be it?


they seem to be on Defence, i saw a couble running aorund the CP for a couple second. Any ideas?

Do the AI tend to gather in certain spots, and then procede to not move?
Did you go to the planning tab and just place hubs, without connections?

Thats what the errors seem to be about.

Thats somewhat unusual, normaly conquest units don't need planning.
I still not sure what those errors mean they seem to have something to do with planning, but I'm not sure what.

You could try adding some hubs and connections, if you havn't already.

Heres a simple tut for that.

You need to have planning. If you place hubs in ZE and not connections between them, the ai will just get stuck inside the hub. Especially if the hubs are large. They act almost as barriers, the ai follows the connections to different hubs, and acts withing those. If they are given hubs and no connections, then they don't run free, like they do immediately in the defalt map, but neither do they move around, like in a finished map.

I greatly doubt changing a weapon, and removing water, would stop the AI, its got to be a planning issue.
Did you do it all in the [Base] layer?

Did you accidentally disable the Soldier type from using the hubs and connections?
