Hi!

Im using DarkGDK to develop a RTS and for path findig I use DarkAI with all its AIGoToPosition etc.

Atm im having one huge problem. Imagen a scene with 1 tank and 2 soilders.

the tank will should have a bigger radius(AISetRadius) then the 2 soilders, else the soilders will walk party trought the tank.

So how would I go about setting the "avoidance"-radius of the tank?

I tried the avoidance distance, but it not work for me. my case same like yours, i created the object with different size different speed but i cant set the radius(AISetRadius) differently. i tried to add in the different avoidance distance according to their size but it make no different. when the big and small entities walk together, they will overlapped.

You could use the collision system. detect if the characters are within a certain radius of the tank and if they are use the

AI set entity hit command.

I don't have the command list infront of me, I'm pretty sure thats the one. Its the command to tell the entity that he's bumped into a dynamic object not in the AI collision system

I want robotic legs.

Ye, looks good. Will give it a try.

Can I remove AISetRadius(2.5f); if I use this method?
