SINI AI

[Troodon]

Hi,
I'm trying to make artificial intelligence but I have some problems. Currently SINI (my AI project) can solve basic labyrints but it can be cheated very easily. I tried to make it so that it remembers the wall collisions but that just made the labyrints more difficult for SINI. I will try again some things (for example picking a new way in collision from a specified side). Has anyone good hints?

Hey, the SINI has moveto candy in draw actor and I'm using 1.3.3 version of GE. How can I make in timer:
-create timer2
-moveto random direction by forgetting the candy moveto in the draw actor
When the timer2 ends:
-forget the random direction
-keep moving towards the candy

No one can help me?

Hi again,
I solved that problem already myself. Currently I'm needing a simple code to make this:

Four actors fly in four directions. After every actor has collided, the main actor goes to the direction where the farest actor collided.
Could somebody help?

Create an array lets call it "dir" with 4 slots.
On collision each actor stores it's distance from the main actor in one of the slots.
When the main actor begins to move, use a multiple if statement to check which distance is the highest and move the actor accordingly. Like this

Code: Select all

if (dir[0]>dir[1]&&dir[0]>dir[2]&&dir[0]>dir[3])
//move in the desired direction
else if (dir[1]>dir[0]....
//you get the point


This could be done in different ways but i cant think of any now except using the max function and pointers but that would be over complicating.

Thanks Novice!! You've got new avatar!

I will try the system you told but I've never used directories in GE. Only in one tutorial. How do I make dir? In the variables thing? And how can I make slots?
