Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

Hi! I'm following Nilau's tutorials but I'm doing something wrong and really can't figure out what. The hauler is not taking or dropping anything from the miners to the depot. It once smashed a miner close enough to a depot so that the inventory of the miner was transferred to the depot. But hauler...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

I actually already have walls everywhere where the vehicles shouldn't go. The problem is that they glitch through the walls on a frequent base. And even tough everything is walled off and there is literally just one way to go, they still roam around cluelessly. That's weird, long range bug pathfind...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

I'm having huge issues with the path finding of the vehicles. If vehicles have to travel longer than a short distance they can't find their destination and start to roam around randomly. Also they seem to bug themselve through walls which makes it very hard to prevent them from getting into crowded...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

Im using bobs vehicles and its equipment. And just realized vehicles are using battery energy instead of solid fuels (which I have tons of). If it isnt bug, how to turn it off? EDIT: It does even without bobs mods, just with vehicle grid... EDIT 2: Its most probably caused by your mod - if i turn A...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

My vehicles hit anything at it way to reach the target when following. Can you add a path-finding when following to avoid obstacles? the vehicles would use biter pathfinding anyways and would screw everything over personally I dont tell them to follow anything until they're out in the open, trying ...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

how feasable is it to allow vehicles with a color signal or something similar to take on that color on their exterior, similar to how when a player of a particular color is controlling them?

it would be nice to visually organize them

Re: [MOD 0.15] Orbital Ion Cannon 1.5.1

A life expectancy of mirrors or cannon carrying satellites was proposed a while back and I still think it's a good idea to have them wear out from handling the high density beam after ~10 shots. Refuelling is unfeasible with current technology. Launching a supply rocket with fuel to a satellite has...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Vehicles: Miner

I've poked at the Unit Data settings for the miner I crafted to play with, and it doesn't seem to change what it mines in response to signals. I tried negative (the default), zero, and positive signals for the ore types in vanilla, then drove the mining vehicle over ore patches. It picked up ore no...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

There will be some new vehicles soon, I might rush them out with temporary graphics just to fill the current role gaps (flame and gatling tanks). Would be nice to have some kind of artillery-type vehicle. Poor manuvering and speed making it difficult to get into position after deployment, but able ...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

About multiple weapons: why not restrict autonomous weapons programmaticaly to one (also select weapon with ammo, so you can have for example half of tanks with bullet ammo and half with cannons), but leave all available for player when he is riding vehicle. Assigning ammo and weapon as signals sou...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

I'm having a huge problem regarding friendly fire when attacking alien bases. Attacking with chaingunners and cars works fine. Attacking with flamethrower cars turned out to be a huge no-no, because they set the ground on fire and then I lose lots of vehicles because they drive into the flames. See...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

The warden scans once every 60 ticks, if it finds something to do the next scan is 10 tick later instead of 60. That's already quite optimised without sacrificing usefulness as a healer. I've had a battle squad of 30 units with no problems. Maybe other things are cluttering up the found entities li...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

This probably isn't directly your fault but the base AAI vehicles mod seems to hog a lot of CPU time even idling around. I had around 20 or so tanks following me in a warden and the base vehicles mod was using about 5 cpu time per frame while the warden was taking about 6 due to random damage and sh...

I'll have to upload it later it might be due to something else. For now killing enemies in a small radius with a console command seems to get rid of them.

Re: [MOD 0.13.17+] Rampant - 0.15.13

Rampant doesn't have any underground enemies yet, I have code for them but nothing has been implemented in the game to make them appear. "The ground begins to shake" is supposed to be the start of large attack waves coming in. Usually this is triggered by a recycling biters event. Sometim...

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

Some structure of mine seems to be trying to query ID 0 on a vehicle and keeps crashing the game when it tries to perform an operation on "x" which is a nil value. Only seems to happen in very particular instances and I can't pin it down to what.

Re: [MOD 0.14] AAI Programmable Vehicles

Speaking of (un)loading ammo, could the loading include the count in fuel and ammo slots? Right now if you set a vehicle to load 200 bullets, it loads 200, puts them into an ammo slot and then load another 200, meaning unitdata of 200 actually gives 400. Even worse if the ammo slot has one bullet l...
