Hi folks. I'm tinkering with making some single player maps for JA and have run into a bit of difficulty understanding exactly how the NPC waypoint system works. The few tutorials I've found on it have either been vague or haven't produced the right results when I followed them (particularly true of https://jkhub.org/mapping/richdiesal/Entities220_Lesson_5_NPCSpawning_files/en220lsn5.htm), so I thought perhaps I could find some enlightenment here. :3 What I can do: use ICARUS scripts to move NPCs among waypoint_navgoals via a waypoint chain. It took some time to figure out that NPCs apparently can't detect a waypoint that isn't relatively close to them, but looking at the original Raven maps seems to support that this is the case. What I can't quite do: get point_combat to work correctly. That old tutorial I linked above seems to claim that NPCs will use the waypoint network to find a point_combat from which they can attack the player, but I can't get this to work...or, more accurately, I can't get it to work with most NPCs. For example, take this setup: The entity on the left is info_player_start. On the right we've got an enemy. If the enemy is NPC_Stormtrooper, it'll attack you if you're in its line of sight, but never pursue you if you go outside of it (even if you use an ICARUS script on spawn to toggle its SET_CHASE_ENEMIES to true). This seems right -- without waypoints, it can't really figure out where to go. However, if I add waypoints that would allow the stormtrooper a path around the wall (having first set the stormtrooper's behavior states using a script, of course), then get in combat with him before hiding behind the wall again, he stubbornly stays where he is. Likewise, point_combats seem to do nothing...but only for the stormtrooper! If I change the enemy to a Gran, for instance, it will actively try to reach the point_combat entities when the player is out of line of sight. It's easy to track this by using nav show all in-game and watching the arrows. I know that the type of weapon held by an enemy factors into its AI, and I've looked through the JKA source code enough to see that the various NPC classes have pretty different reactions to various combat situations, but I still feel like I'm missing something (probably something quite simple!).
