In FPSC, if the world is dark, the enemy can see the player.
My questions are
1)Is it possible to reduce the visibility of the enemy according to the light intensity?
2)How can we reduce the player's height?

Open the script that the enemy is using, and edit the conditiond PLRDISTWITHIN and PLRDISTFURTHER to be smaller.......

Yeah, most every script given for enemy AI is not going to satisfy every condition that the enemy could possibly be in. To tailor fit your enemy with his surroundings may, in fact, require some scripting on your part to provide the illusion that you're looking for.

I could have sworn I saw something in the source that checks the lighting when an enemy is looking at a player - but that might have only been for accuracy.

No, you're right, Airslide, I've seen it too.

I believe it was in a way related to the "plrcanbeseen" command. Or at least used by that command.

Only problem with it, though, is it's not tweakable by the end user.

Thank you guys.

But you didn't answer my second question
The player's height. He's taller than all other human models in the game. Otherwise , can we reduce the other humans' height?

Wouldn't reducing the other humans' height make them EVEN smaller than the player?

Lol, you could try openning up the character models in a modelling program (MilkShape, for example) and adjusting how big they are. You could probably get away with simply stretching the entire model vertically with no effect on animations.
