Title: A.I-ing Problem
Post by: Gazea2 on March 23, 2010, 01:10:24 PM: I have A.I-ed before but I have never A.I-ed a poker. Whenever it moves it swerves and it won't fire it's weapon. I have labelled all of the controls correctly, though. :confused:

Here are the bindings:
Code: [Select]
list.append(("HammerHead A.I","Poker",{'invertible':True,'radius':0.1,'nose':math.pi*2.5, 'topspeed':200,'throttle':150,'turnspeed':5,'weapons':(13,14,15,16,17)}))

Yes.

EDIT: The piston fires now but it still drives weirdly... It snakes around the arena. :confused:
Title: Re: A.I-ing Problem
Post by: G.K. on March 23, 2010, 01:27:42 PM: You gave it a topspeed of 200. That might be a tad too much.

Before it was 150 but it still started to snake.

Title: Re: A.I-ing Problem
Post by: Gazea2 on March 23, 2010, 01:36:40 PM: Now it snakes sometimes. :confused:

Any other suggestions?

EDIT: Thanks, G.K! I changed the top speed to 99 and the throttle. :bigsmile:

when in doubt set all values to the defaults (located at the top of the bindings) have your robot running fine then tweak out what you want ;)
