ai driving AI Driving Control

The entire purpose of the script (pedestrians side) is to stop exactly that.

They should slow down first and stop when men are near (now even at 360º).

 

You deduct that from the video or you tested it yourself?

If you tested it, beware that speed will always be the enemy of this script, a man running full speed dead on onto a vehicle at full speed will probably result on a kill.

If you say that from the video, all I see is them running over people when they are reversing, and that is beyond my control. ForceSpeed apparently only works forward.

Hey there .. no I was commenting on the vehicle to vehicle collisions.  The peds seems fine from the video.

Oh you are right, I misread, sorry.

The vehicles collide head on because I found it best to not mess with their speeds once other vehicles are not coming from the side, or are not facing forward. Why? Because AI has to find it's own path and could eventually end up stuck otherwise.

That only happens when there's too much going on though and on straight road oncoming traffic behaves pretty well.

I might take a look at that down the road and try and figure out a way of them not getting stuck but as I said, AI has to find it's path anyway.

 

PS: I misread because I had been editing vehicle/pedestrian relation only so you caught me by surprise 😛

Sorry about that ... I was just watching the video with interest but the glaring issue was the HEMTT smashing head first into other vehicles.

Great work. Will you also distribute this mod on Steam's Workshop?

@RCA3 Thanks for your efforts. Incidentally, any chance you could upload this to Steam's Workshop?

You're welcome. No Steam, sorry.

An amazing example of a modder doing BIs work. Why the AI has been allowed to deteriorate over the years is beyond me.

Does this mod run as servermod?

 

Will running this mod server side force players to run it client side in order to join my server?

 

Also what is required to just use the script version?

 

Thank you.

Yes. However, if you are a player on a server (talking dedicated here, not sure other modes) with AI on your group, those AI will be run from the client, therefore the player needs the mod.

No.

Follow INSTALLATION.txt. Locality wise, again, if your player has AI driving, you'll have to execute the script at the client. It executes to every vehicle present at mission start (server or client), and then you need to run it for spawning vehicles. Zeus starts the script automatically, script or mod version.

No problem.

[pazuzu 21]

Thank you.

 

This looks nice. I'll be testing it this weekend.

Changelog:
v2.5.3 - Fixed: "Bounding box" loop would not exit for driver disembark, death or vehicle damaged.
                [Warning] Changed: Script version makes use of remoteExec on zeus and optional spawns. Meaning client/server's AI will have controlled driving on non-locally created vehicles (same as in addon version). Read INSTALLATION.txt for new instructions.
                Changed: Renamed functions main class.

[RCA3 593]

Hey guys, if you're using the script version please replace aidrivingcontrol\cfgremoteexec.hpp with this new cfgremoteexec.hpp.

Sorry, I named the wrong function 🙄

Fixed.

@Hi @RCA3

Just wondering what each side considers an obstacle. For instance, do opfor care if they're about to run over blufor? Are there certain rules in place for this?

Hey,

Right now is only isKindOf "Man" and the gates ["Land_BarGate_01_open_F", "Land_BarGate_F", "Land_RoadBarrier_01_F"]. They don't discriminate sides, do you feel the need that they should?

Edit: changed already 🙂 (read changelog). Did you want this btw 😄?

                Added: Discriminate between friend or foe pedestrians (i.e. ignore foes).

I suppose it is a moral question. However this is Arma, the opposing sides are in conflict and when a BMP full of AI is barrelling toward you, the last thing they would be thinking about is whether they should stop or swerve to avoid their enemy. 😀

@RCA3

 

Congratulation mate your did an amazing work, and great progress build after build.

 

I would like to ask if you can do that when AI disembark after vehicle get hit and it's about to explode that the AI run away from it.

 

I really hate that they eject the vehicle then they stay near it and talk with each others o it's a nice day today, Greta was wrong see it's cold this winter... and BOOOM the vehicle explode and kill them all...

 

I know that is not a driving thing but would be so cool if you can address that somehow.

 

🤙 keep rocking

I actually like the idea but i'm not sure if that should be hard coded into the script because people might have their own ideas of where/how the driver should move/behave. Let me think about it.

That said it's not hard to write and you could write it for you own particular case using something on the likes of:

addEventHandler

Event_Handlers#GetOut ex: if (damage _vehicle >= 0.8) then{move to new position}.

getPos  ex: _newpos = car getPos [50, (getDir car + 270)]. new position 50 meters to the left of the car. Or use BIS_fnc_findSafePos instead with a ~50  meter radius in case there's no room on the left.

doMove

 

If you need help PM me, i'll be glad to help you.

Cheers.
