confusion and frustration @_@

I have a battle arena map that I have these computers with ai, in the past I already done a fairly cheap dodging system that didn't work so good, lately I've been trying to figure out a new system for it, I did but to do it is very confusing and frustrating for me... I put 3 locations vertically across the arena in even sizes to fit it, then another 3 horizontally across the arena like an x-y coordinate grid. I'm trying to make it so that when an enemy tries to attack the computer with a spell he will run the other direction but seeing that locations are limited, the location each coordinate is fairly big and the only way the computer can tell which way the enemy is coming from that it can react to the opposite direction to run, I tried using switches but the confusing part is to know what triggers you've done and going back to look at it, with so many ways to dodge it would need so much triggers you could imagine. If anyone know a simpler way or recording or just a better legit system in general please help @_@.

I think a mobile grid would be easier than a coordinate grid, is there any reason why you need a coordinate one?



None.

hmm.. mobile grid, that perhaps has a better chance, i wish blizz made simulations for map making >.> then you'd be able to test things out in the editor rather than remaking over and over again

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating
