The ai Frontier - My ups and downs

[C.Brutail]

I know I can test it locally too,I just didn't want to test it with idiot bots
And on the last sentences of Alien:
+1 !

Ok people. I have two different versions now, one with 1 flag and one with 3 flags. Try them out and see which one you like the best:

1 flag: http://ai.planetnexuiz.de/Models/z_aiFl ... V0.4.2.pk3

3 flags: http://ai.planetnexuiz.de/Models/z_aiFl ... E_V0.4.pk3

Sa far it's:
1 flag = 4 votes
3 flags = 4 votes

-------------------------------------
I write this up here just as a reminder, however later on I'll prob make a vote which will have a big (if not the final) impact.

1 flag:
Z
Fisume
Brutail
MirceaKitsune

3 flags:
ai
Morfar
Tweak (I think it was)
A guy on IRC (forgot his name, possibly Dib or something like that)

I like the "1 flag" version ai, but it looks a bit strange when you're running with it. I don't know how to change that, but it wouldn't be that easy.

Anyway, good job. Keep it up.

Q3 flags examples:





You can see how the part of the flag which is outside bb pokes inside the wall.
It seems q3 walls were specially made thick in order not to allow the flag protrude.

I'll check UT too to see how flag problem was solved there.

UT99 had an awesome flag animation iirc.

Could anyone else try the flags out and vote? So I get a more general idea of how many wants what.

[KillaGrunt]

WHAT is that thing holding the flag?????

WHAT is that thing holding the flag?????

Lasers, glow isn't there yet so it looks strange. But this is just a beta stage yet.

Can you angle the (single) flag ~20-45 degress to give it more visual understanding?

[ai]

I can try 35 degrees to be a bit random. However you can change the rotation on the flags when building maps. So I can only give a "standard" rotation. But to get arbitrary it would be up to the mappers.
