Blasphemy!! :O My universe is shattering! The All Powerful Warboy1982 .... the Omnipotent... declares that he can't DO something! That its impossible! Ack!
Wouldn't the first thing the AI checks for be an accessible target?
1- Check for target
2- Check for 2x2 path to next (randomly generated?) patrol point
3- Check for 1x1 path to same point + destroy obstruction
I omitted checking for targets since that's a pretty obvious first thing to do. If there is a target standing in the house or blocking a 2-tiles door, you don't want the reaper going to chew the wall.
All the 2 by 2 aliens pathfinding should have an added clause like:
If a 2-tiles wide path can't be found.
1-Find a 1-tile wide path.
2-Find chokepoint of the 1-tile path
3-Attack scenery next to the chokepoint
This way, a reaper could find a door and chew at the wall next to it so it can get out. Or a cyberdisc/sectopod would just blast that wall bit away.
Changes:
- Some more UFO maps added from grzegorzj's Yet More UFOs! collection.
- Some ruleset cleanup.
- Laser Cyberdiscs are now orange, with orange weapon sprite.
- Added Medikit hand sprite by Ivan Godovich.
- Added some urban map blocks I made in spare time.
- Using MiB armours now requires MiB Activity researched.
- Fixed erroneus starting ammo.
- Dogs have Bravery 10 now and are more expensive.
Bravery will only get you so much in this respect. If you really want immunity, you need to bump Psi Strength.
Of course. Welcome to the team! You'll be hired somewhere between episodes 34 and 36.
Btw. in the next LP (FMP, coming soon) we'll be recruiting in reverse order, so you'll be one of the first :-) "The last shall be first, and the first last."
More illustrations are in order.
