| Summary | 0000377: Clientsided A_JumpIfInTargetLOS should target the console player only. | ||||
| Description | I know that A_CheckSight checks only the console player if the actor is client-sided, but there may be some clientside actors that demand even more processing, and A_CheckSight may not be enough to reduce the resources needed. A_JumpIfInTargetLOS only checks if the target can see the object, unlike A_CheckSight, which establishes an unobstructed line between actor and target(s), regardless of whether one can see the other. However, also unlike A_CheckSight, A_JumpIfInTargetLOS has no special client-sided behavior; I have tested this once before. If the actor is clientsided, it should target the console player only, because like A_CheckSight, it may prove useful in reducing function usage in objects that the player cannot see. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | |||||
| Additional Information | A_JumpIfInTargetLOS should not be used for actors that cannot resume their behavior immediately without any greatly noticeable differences, such as most actor spawners. | ||||
