Stealth system

[Livermore]

hi

I need help with my mod
I need to know how to make the stealth system "not invisibility sphere"
for example the game commandos:

[Tux]

Code: Select all

<Tux[Qyou]> oh god
<Tux[Qyou]> I think I know what he meant
<Tux[Qyou]> he wants to hide behind obstacle sprites
<Tux[Qyou]> thats why he points at place behind cross

Unfortunately, the Doom engine just can't handle stealth. Monster AI is very binary. Either they don't know you exist, in which case they do fuck all, or they know you exist, in which case they hunt you down. You can't really do anything in-between.

You can still have monsters forget they were chasing a player and wander around aimlessely to simulate a search :P

Having them be unable to see through objects? Goodluck with that

have you looked into the aow code?
The turrets can't see the stealth players, make a similar system in all the monsters, and make the pole use a_firebullets and give it a puff, which gives the player the invisibillity thingy.
hope I'm not getting too understandable :V
good luck tho.
