Title: AI won't spin their weapons.
Post by: helloface on May 20, 2013, 02:15:03 PM: I am just starting out AIing. I've made spinners in stock before, but for some reason it isn't working in DSL. I named the SWITCH "Spin" and named it as a Spinner in the bindings. It acts like spinner, but the weapon won't work. The AI guide says I don't need a smart zone, so I'm confused.

Post by: Naryar on May 20, 2013, 02:18:09 PM: Don't use a switch, use a button.

Did you named it "Spin" WITHOUT spaces before or after the word ?

Did you made an error in the binding ?

ai is the exact same thing in stock and dsl just so you know.

It's DirectionalSpinner.

That has nothing to do with the problem. They're all spinner ai's and they all work equally as well.

Post the bindings so we may see if there is a problem.

Post by: Naryar on May 20, 2013, 02:54:49 PM: You forgot the 'weapons' entry. They're not rammer.py.

Reduce throttle and topspeed to 130 and 50, because 1000 throttle is hax.

My bot exporter doesn't work so I don't know what weapons numbers to put.

Numbers and number of numbers are irrelevant.

No.

Post by: Naryar on May 20, 2013, 04:50:40 PM: You should. It is more helpful.

Post by: Thyrus on May 20, 2013, 05:18:15 PM: I had this problem once as well. notepad shows you when there`s something wrong. you have to fix it then and it`ll work
