Hi I'm having loads of issues with the enemies:



Edit 2: I posted this a while ago but it ended up in the wrong board, and now the issues are largely covered elsewhere, or explained by Lee and Dave



However these currently remain:

1. They ignore waypoints completely (Though seem to walk off on an exact tangent)

2. They are quite happy to wade through solid rock (Or walls, or other entities)

4. They ignore the player and its very hard to stop them walking away and get them to shoot you.

5. They walk off the edges of lowered terrain and walk about on the seabed/riverbed.



An army of aimless wanderers walking off cliffs is entertaining, but not quite the effect I was after...



**Edit 1: - I swear I posted this in product chat, so how's it ended up here? Can a mod please move it? Sorry **



Regards,

S

These issues are solved in the current internal build. Turns out it was due to AI obstacles encompassing 'islands' that are completely surrounded by water.

Thanks
Now it's zones that are the major issue to be solved...

At the detected score [passmark 9074], my SSD is ranked 3rd of all SSD's in the charts

See your other thread and a solution to deleting ALL waypoints and zones from your existing levels.
