Ai questions

Post by EvilShindo »

Hello everyone,


I've just started getting into AI mods.

The most recent one i downloaded was T Beezie's Night Ops mod.

I have to say, it was AMAZING. However out of curiosity i've been always wanting to know this:

How come when people make AI mods for Gametypes like Slayer and Team Slayer, how come Ai kills don't actually count as kills?(Double Kill, Triple Kill, etc)

Like how you can't have them count as actual kills? and have a score. That would REALLY make my day...

Thank you!

I don't believe anyone's figured that out, but you can try asking TruLife or another good AI person.

Simply put, you don't get kills from AI in SP. Since we're taking the AI from SP and putting it in MP, we don't get kills regardless of MP having a point system.

Because they have to be registered as actually players, The game doesnt recognize AI as anything but objects with instructions on what to do.

And even if bungie for some strange reason did put AI in MP maps they still wouldnt be given points for killing them, thats just how the games engine/ AI structure is built.

Well, if Bungie did put AI into MP, chances are they would have a different AI structure than in SP, considering they wouldn't just throw them into MP and leave it as is.

Well obviously, Im saying if they put AI in MP using the same game engine and AI engine.
