Title: Some AIing Help
Post by: Urjak on July 14, 2011, 09:43:50 PM: I was curious as to whether or not there was a way to AI a bot (in my case a vertical spinner) to stop spinning one of the parts is knocked off it weapon (thus preventing it from vibrating erratically from an unbalanced disk or bar).

Any response would be appreciated.

You'd need to set some variable equal to len(self.weapons) in def Activate. Then in def Tick, you tell it to spin if that variable == len(self.weapons), and if not, to stop. Like so:

def Activate

self.initWepCount = len(self.weapons)

def Tick

if self.initWepCount == len(self.weapons):
self.Input("Spin", 0, 100)
else:
self.Input("Spin", 0, 0)

Also this needs to be wired with an analog control and you need to set all the weapon ID's on the VS in 'weapons' in Bindings.py.
