Jost Amman Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 This was a fun feature to do and took less than a day: Added AI head tracking to movement or target positions. [ATTACH=JSON]{"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","data-attachmentid":1729343}[/ATTACH] LOL! That's great! You should also have them do the 180° turn like possessed people! That would scare the crap out of most players! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jost Amman Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Wtf, are you snitching on some random dudes opinions. What are you, 12 year old. Yes, I hear most of a developer's work is based on snitching, you know... ;-] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laz Man Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Sure was. Take a look at this baby: Thats a pretty sweet looking base...especially for early alpha standards. Symmetry, ramp column accents, walkways and sniper roost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ATTACH=JSON]{"data-align":"none","data-size":"full","data-attachmentid":1729343}[/ATTACH] This is awesome, a seemingly small detail but will have a dramatic effect. Glad it was relatively easy to implement. Kudos. Will be fun in multiplayer, watching them switch focus from one person to another, should make Neebs videos extra fun. Will even add some spice to Glock9's videos(my current fav), sure he'll have some colorful language the first time he notices it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're gonna make the game feel fresh again... by having less fresh zombies, ironically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MechanicalLens Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I was remodeling and I don't feel any shame in breaking a block I earned and placed the hard way that I put down in the wrong spot. Hopefully we will have a remodel feature someday that does the same thing. Ahh okay, totally understandable. In case you or anyone else is curious, this is the extent I use the CM menu and DM menu for: DM To go into Fly Mode to take screenshotsTo roll the time back 3 hours at 10 AM on day 1, since you lose 3 hours on the first day CM Spawn in T6 military stealth boots if I craft a T5 pairSpawn in deco items for decorative purposes at the end of a game, and only those you cannot craft or buy at a traderIf the game cheats me, I cheat it. If I die and my vehicle disappears, I'll roleplay that some thief took my vehicle and rode off with it. However, for example, if I lose my fully modded T6 steel spear by tossing it at the Earth and then it passes through the ground like a ghost, then I'm spawning it back inAt the end of a game I type in "schematic" in the CM menu to look at what schematics I have yet to find, and just out of curiosityTo spawn in iron hatches, garage doors, or rolling garage doors after I've crafted the first batch, since it's almost impossible to tell which side they will open from; if placed incorrectly, I destroy them with the Dev Super Digger. I do the same if I misplace drawbridges... several dozen times And that's the full extent of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechanicalLens Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 This is true. But tempering the mind along the way can lead to some amazing personal growth and lead you to new adventures where you are successful. Start small and aim higher as you go. Practice with an aim to get better than you were yesterday, not better than the best in the world and see how far you can go. Very true. I'm currently looking into learning editing skills so that perhaps I'll be uploading videos I can be somewhat proud of by the time A19 rolls around; perhaps mythbusting content and tutorial videos for new players, to help build up an audience and, of course, to help the growing playerbase. But the trick isn't getting out of bed, metaphorically speaking; it's sticking to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laz Man Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 lol gosh haha brings back memories lol.. Those Male or female player models are iconic. If you ever played with more then 2 other people, it was like twins everywhere lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faatal Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Is that in code, the controller or the avatar? Thanks! Code. Done using EModelBase LateUpdate LookAtUpdate, which modifies the head rotation after animation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Survager Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 We do use A* but how the zombies use it and react to it doesn't fall out the sky with zero effort. Its possible we've modified it heavily too. People are stupid and think making games is easy. If it were easy everyone would be a millionaire. MM, you are wrong! If games were easy to do, there would be no millionaires, it would just be 100,500 times more games =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stallionsden Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Those Male or female player models are iconic. If you ever played with more then 2 other people, it was like twins everywhere lol lol yep least now and at end game i guess there be more variations and with modders adding more in at some stage even more. so uniqueness be available to us all.

MechanicalLens Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Code. Done using EModelBase LateUpdate LookAtUpdate, which modifies the head rotation after animation. Now all we need is for the following sequence to occur: Player steps on pile of trash. A Marlene, who is in the same room ahead of them and slumped over the floor, slowly turns her head around a full 180 degrees to face the player.
