Title: AI can't enter area
Post by: Optik on 14 Jul 2006, 15:30:29

I have a problem with one of my missions on Kolgujev. There is one small area which looks like a small base. It has 2 gates that are opened. The problem is, when i play the mission, AIs dont follow me, they go around it and do nothing but get killed or say "negative". Its like the gates are closed for them.
I have attached this part of the mission here. Any ideas what it could be?

ai in flashpoint are good in open spaces, but act like brainless lemmings in enclosed spaces.

just think of it as a "feature" of flashpoint and try to work a way round it. part of the challenge of mission-making ;)

Maybe the AI's could magically get positioned into a better spot where they could continue following you. Like use setPos to place them on the other side of the gates and see if they can continue from there. Will look cool in a mission, it's like in Star Trek you know ;)

haha im sure he dosent want star trek teleporting in his cold war mission, when that happens to me, I just get the men in front of the gate and then put this playmove"combatrunf" and they will run thru, then just play it from there.
