Defining Awesome

I decided to use a hybrid method. Cached paths aren’t flexible. The bot will calculate paths in his closest area. Farther he’ll use cache.

Excercising caching today. The pathfinding speed proves not to be satisfactory. I’m precalculating the routes and storing them in memory.

First ever LD deathmatch MM (Mieciu) vs. Bot (Unnamed player) scoreboard

My bot mercilessly finds the player and then shoots the pistol 25 times a second. I need to dumb him down to appear more human.

Started work again. Path-finding works but there’s more. Had to sit down and really rethink how the nuts & bolts of the bot brain will work.

Having a couple days off to sort out my life. Been working non-stop since xmas. Planning to have a deathmatch bot for everyone to play by the end of the month.

LD Terminator bot chase – This was the hardest video I’ve done. It’s really hard to escape this evil bastard.

Haven’t read this yet but it doesn’t matter I’m thrilled. Two of my childhood Idols in one interview: link

“Man is something to be overcome”. This is what must happen if I make these bots. It’s tough. I am struggling on and off with them each day.

Not mine but good. Quote: “Almost all programming can be viewed as an exercise in caching.”
