- K_FindBotController returns the line_t directly, instead of a linedef index.
- Trick panel code is in its own function.
- Try to fix infinite bot heat death
Instead of searching for walls around the player, and then deciding to make the radius tighter if it found anyway, it instead checks if the waypoint it's trying to predict towards was blocked by any walls / hazards.
Needs adjusted some, I think its being pulled back too hard sometimes, but I am optimistic about some of the improvements I already saw.
They will no longer do it on a whim after getting bumped out of position of hitting walls, instead checks if they're trying to accelerate and they physically can't.
- If they're already turning in one direction, they are more likely to steer in that direction for objects
- Bots have to want to turn in 1 direction for a few frames in a row before it'll let them
Prevents twitching & makes them less indecisive in general
- Make ring usage smarter
- Ring usage threshold varies between characters (Tails will be more willing to dump rings, Metal will hold onto them)
- Decrease ring use threshold when they have a speed boost (tethering)
- Decrease ring use threshold when slowed down more than usual
- Properly implement Triple Sneaker & Rocket Sneaker usage
- Use smallest radius of all waypoints being predicted, to improve precision
- Bots never use prev waypoints
- Use sneaker if held for too long without a proper use
- Use sneaker if losing too much speed
- Use sneaker if you have another boost (tether, boosters)
- Add triple sneaker & rocket sneaker support
- Don't go towards shortcut waypoints without a shortcut item
- Bots get naturally better handling
