SI AI

[Eric]

I think the fighting AI still needs a little brush work. The fighting itself is okay, I'm just talking about when the characters go to attack eachother. Instead of directly attacking one-another they go to where they first saw the character that they're attacking. Then the two fighting characters do a little dance until they finally meet up with one-another and exchange blows.

Also, theres a bug where sometimes (only for certain stairs) if you walk down the stairs (actually down a level, like into a basement) you can't walk back up. The only two ways back up the stairs is to either stack an object (like a crate) at the bottom of the stairwell and then walk up or to use the teleport cheat.

yeah it needs some work and because of this glich my poor shamino was slain and dupre knocked into a coma...

[Dominus]

as for the stairs: we need exact location for those certain stairs to do something about it.

Yes, I know about the fighting problem. They should check at least when they're half-way to their original destination to see if they need to pick a new spot.

This is part of our general pathfinding/followers problem, which I plan on addressing after the 1.00 release.

Okay, that'll be a work in progress. I'm playing through SI right now so I'll make a list of which stairs don't work. As well, I'll jot down any tile/building glitches that I notice in the game.

Uhmmm... ... I tried the buggy stairs again. They do actually work, it's just some of them are a little trickier to get up than others. These were all in Fawn. But I dunno, maybe screw the idea of a stairs bug as they do seem to work. I'd just focus on the pathfinding AI and List Field quarks.
