More Bot Problems

Jul 05, 2003 roguelazer link
I've been seeing A LOT of these recently, but let me relate to you a story from about 5 mins ago.

I went into sector 10, fast on my way to 15. As I pass the first IceYo, I see a 75c bot ramed into a roid and not moving. I shoot it, it doesn't react. I kill it. At the second iceyo! I see one more 75c bot and a 150c bot, both also stuck in the roid. I kill them. Then, I find a 250c bot and two 150c bots just floating in space. They ALSO don't react to my shots. Finally, I make it to 16, my true destination. I find all of Beta Wing rammed into the IceYo! I kill them and get about 4 squads of bots attacking me. Then the frigate respawns and in under 5 minutes, every bot in the sector rams it and it is destroyed. *interesting*


That's the first two problems. Here's the other one.

This problem happens mostly in sector 12, but also in 3, 2 and 4 to some extent. It deals with the NPCDEF bots. Not the hvys, the Defenses. If you fly through a roid (holy roid, of course) while being chased, they issue. However, if you fly NEAR a roid, they will sometimes fly into the roid and sit there, nonresponsive until you kill them and they respawn.


Oh yeah, and the flag defense turrets are back to instant respawn again, pls fix.

well AIs are pretty stupid and now that we figured out them out it's easy to cap.
