PropHunt
2 years ago

Hunter AI is complete now.

The basic search, investigate and shoot functions work.

I'll make it better over time, adding newer search methods, checking if the player switches props etc

Read Article for more info :)


Right now, the AI has 3 phases

Checking all the Props

The AI will go to the nearest prop (this includes the player) and shoot it a couple of times before moving on to the next.

If the AI can't reach the prop but has a line of sight, it will shoot from that position.

If all the props have been investigated, the AI will now chase after the player (wherever they are).

Investigating Noise

A timer has been set to reveal the player's location every 50 seconds. This will report a noise event to the AI. The AI will abandon the check for props and immediately go to the location where the noise was reported from.

AI Caught the player moving

Some modification needed here as it's only checking for speed and not intentional input.

If the player happens to move in the peripheral vision of the AI, it will abandon everything and chase after the player.

Update on the hunter AI:

Some problems here & there but the overall AI is coming together pretty well

The problem shown in the clip has been fixed

Had an issue with portal cameras

Spent a couple of hours trying to fix it....

Solution was just to change the Tick Group

Weird sketch post process

Sky sphere doesn't render for some reason

I don't even know if I'm gonna end up using it

Thanks to @TeamHalfBeard , it is Time to Morp.

Begin to Morp in your quest log and then Morp more here: https://bit.ly/time2morp

Changing the prop mechanics to accomodate the size of the object by using temporary capsule.

Its a bit hard since not all objects are round, and that the character sometimes falls through the floor.

Edit: Found a solution
