Many thanks for the effort ! No AI required for the NPCs ... i think u ve just missed this point ! Simple basic "magnet range" idea ! And that's what I'm talking about, when i ve said that never saw that in other game ! Your example of FALLOUT 3 like others, fail because they try to put some AI for the NPCs !!! " take them ( PIMPs ) too much precious time ... ??!! " > Well, TIME is the the last word u should mention, with the development of ending this game !!! Besides fun ratio, these NPCs rescue missions, should get us a new hook for more REAL zombies movie like sensations, when u should feel a REAL hero by saving people, or feeling BAD when u lose survivors ... and that's what's missing in this game, and all others that don't have that feature. But HEY, that's only my opinion ! I've stopped playing 7D2D because the lack of those rescue missions, that should give daily new results to hook to it again, and again, ... There's a HUGE bunch of programming ideas that u can stick to the NPCs rescue missions : special npcs like "presidents", "mayors", family, animals, ... u name it. With different reward values for each type of NPC ! PIMPs pls use your bright imagination !!! I´m just a gamer, do whatever u like ... cheers !!! +- 1600 hours now with 7D2D !!! Cya ...
