How is TheTroll5 written in the bot fie?

nightcracker · « **Reply #901 on:** August 27, 2011, 03:13:37 PM »

Code: [Select]

Name: The Troll5

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #902 on:** August 27, 2011, 03:14:45 PM »

OK, there goes my idea. I'm assuming you had the 4 spaces at the beginning of the line right?
When does it crash?

nightcracker · « **Reply #903 on:** August 27, 2011, 03:17:19 PM »

At the start of the game.

Shouldn't it be called Bot0.bot?

Woops, still crashes though.

OK, that's me out, I'm still trying to fix my problem.
I guess all we can do now is wait.

nightcracker · « **Reply #907 on:** August 27, 2011, 03:27:37 PM »

Alright, got it fixed.

The problem was that I had installed Pys AI over SC3 AI which has strange effects on the teams.

Squirrel_Monkey · « **Reply #908 on:** August 27, 2011, 03:28:33 PM »

Yeah, SC3 and its batch files...
I still can't fix my bot

Is it set to "Spin" with a button and not a switch?

No weapons line, would that affect it?

Yes, the AI is told to only spin if it still has weapons. If there is no 'weapons' line, the AI doesn't know that it has any weapons and it won't spin. If you don't want to actually have any real weapons set, just use 'weapons':(0,)

The reason the AI never stops spinning once they start is because button controls are almost impossible to turn off once activated.

i ai-ed a pushy bot with a snowplow that fails. it's wired correctly, it faces the right way, but this is what it does.

it drives toward me, backs up, then drives staright into a corner. help?

What .py are you using? Does it eventually drive out of the corner or does it just stay there? Does the AI ever turn? It may also help to post the bindings you're using. Answer those questions and someone may be able to help.

I had a dream that I got that advice last night, but it was from Sage for some reason.
I'll go check it works now.

So... I would guess Sage is so incredibly awesome at giving advice that when he sleeps, his mind casts Sending spells on it's own and sends advice subconsciously to less skilled builders ?

How can I AI a SnS so that it moves towards the enemy (kinda like pressing forward whenever the front of the SnS is aiming towards the enemy).

Where can I get it?

Virus Bomb · « **Reply #917 on:** August 29, 2011, 04:40:19 PM »

It should be in the BBEANS DSL AI pack.

Naryar · « **Reply #918 on:** August 29, 2011, 05:29:56 PM »

It's in NAR AI as well. And I bet it has moar info to make it work (added by me) that in the BBEANS AI pack :P
