Tuesday Nights

[liquid]

Me, Scorpy and Davy played some rounds last night. Good fun.

Map is nearly finished. Fixed the problem with the stairs and made some changes in the navigation mesh. All working fine.
Have one problem though, when the bomb is planted in the garage all bots stop moving. They are staring at the ground (in the direction of the bomb). Not even bothered when an enemy is in sight. Very weird and don't I know how to fix it.

Seriously, go do a music thread or something. The band names alone are hurting my head.

Liq, I would guess that there is a special bot map needed for when the bomb is down? No idea but just a thought. Which map is this one anyway?

[skeletor]

I think the walls/floors might be too thin. Probably the same reason why T's were shooting CT's through that wall at spawn.

[liquid]

Could be, but I would say that the material type of the texture should prevent this.

[skeletor]

Does the material actually make any difference to bullets? I thought it was the actual thickness of the blocks that you use.

[liquid]

Well, I did some testing with materials and thickness.
It turns out that material doesn't matter at all indeed, but thickness is not the key either.

If you take a brush with a thickness of 8 units, texture it on one side (like you should, because everything the player can't see shouldn't be textured), a bullet goes strait through it.
Take the same brush and texture the whole brush, it stops a bullet.

Skel, you on tomorrow?

Possibly, although this is my internet at the moment:

You downloading porn or what!?
That is awfully slow

I think Virgin are throttling me. I have uploaded 50GB in 5 days.
