[v0.11.1-rc2] ZetaBot: The ZScript Bot

[Gustavo6046]

Done. I hope NoFile.io works for you

[Vertigo]

The nofile link works for me.

When I try to run the pk3 with the latest GZDoom SVN it's crashing to desktop every time (Very Fatal Error) Which version are you using / can anyone get it to run?

It seems to work fine on 3.2.5, wich I downgraded to to test it. Some feedback, their speed seems to be greater when compared to the player.

their speed seems to be greater when compared to the player.

I have an idea: I'm doing a BotThrust function that divides subtracts the amount by the current velocity, thus efficiently setting a max speed.

I cannot download for some reason...

[Gustavo6046]

There are two download links, are you sure you tried both of them?

[TheNightATK300]

Eh, the other link works. So I'm fine, I still have startup crash though, when playing on GZDoom g3.3pre-662-gde0a81521.

[_mental_]

I can check why it crashes if someone will provide a better link, on hosting which doesn't require authentication and does work through my proxy.

[Gustavo6046]

Try playing on the stable version (instead of SVN). These Very Fatal Errors are pesks, and I rarely manage to fix them.

Well...

Hopefully this new version I just uploaded (now only NoFile is available) works for that as well! It has a bunch of fixes.

There is NoFile.

EDIT: Either way, why the heck do these errors not occur for me?

Having this problem too. Didn't work with 3.2.5 or 3.3.0 after I updated the my GZDoom copy in case that was the cause, also ran the x64 editions if that helps any.

[_mental_]

Because they are falling into undefined behavior category caused by bugs in the engine.
One of them is still not fixed. Another one has been fixed today.
Both cases can solved by editing ZScript code though.

To avoid the first issue change

Code: Select all

CVar.GetCVar("zb_wtypes").GetString().Split(wmodules, ";");

at zscript.bot:158 to something like

Code: Select all

string tmpstr = CVar.GetCVar("zb_wtypes").GetString();
tmpstr.Split(wmodules, ";");

Do the same for ZetaCode/PawnClasses/ZetaBotPawn.zsc:34

Add the third argument for two Vec3Angle() calls in ZetaCode/Pathing.zsc to workaround the second problem.
The default value (i.e. double z = 0) wasn't handled properly there.

Er, Gustavo6046, regarding this -

I can check why it crashes if someone will provide a better link, on hosting which doesn't require authentication and does work through my proxy.

I'll give you a subdomain on DRD Team if it will stop you from using such horrible hosts to store your files.

[_mental_]

Gustavo6046, you have GitHub account. Why don't you use GitHub to host all your projects?
Instead, you are providing poorly versioned download links located on some random hosting. But why?

GitHub offer almost everything open source developers need at zero price.
For example, I can leave comments for lines of code mentioned in my previous post.

[Gustavo6046]

Fine, I think I'll use GitHub.
Does PK3 support XZ compression? Or is it just ZIP?

PK3 is just ZIP, and I'd recommend using only the default (deflate, IIRC?) settings for it - the more advanced algorithms cause programs like SLADE to assume the archive is broken.
