- Added Fika sync plugin (currently only needed for the host machine) for the following features:
- Allow bots to be interrupted to select a new quest based on certain triggers (#89). The chance of bots being interrupted is reduced the further they are from the trigger, and some bots will not be interrupted if they are performing a more desirable quest. The currently supported triggers are:
- Airdrop landings (for Airdrop Chaser quests)
- VEX activations (for VEX Rush quests)
- Switch activations (if enabled for the quest)
- Added VEX Rush quest type (#88)
- Disabled Spawn Rush quests on Labyrinth
- Added new quests:
- Hermetic door switch investigation on Reserve (enabled while the switch is on)
- Multiple camping and switch-investigation quests on Labs
- Improved bot movement
- Bots will seek cover if possible when taking a break from questing and looting. This causes them to stand guard against a building, hide in a bush, and anything in between. While standing guard, they will face against the nearest wall and look in random directions to search for enemies.
- While in cover, bots will reload, heal, eat, or drink if needed. This also makes bots more likely to seek cover before starting to heal.
- If bots hear an enemy (before SAIN takes over), they have a chance to investigate its estimated position of the sound. The louder the sound is, the closer they are to it, and the more often the enemy makes noise, the more accurate the estimated position will be. If they do not investigate the sound, they will either freeze and look in the direction of the sound or they will hide in cover.
- Increased the minimum time for bots to be suspicious from 5s to 10s and increased the maximum time from 20s to 60s
- Allow followers to wander up to 20m away from their bosses (increased from 12m) so their movement is more fluid
- Refresh bot cover and patrol points more regularly, not just when they stop questing, so they're more likely to find eligible points as they travel
- Added PMC and PScav spawning system enhancements:
- Added
max_alive_bots.use_map_lobby_sizeconfig.json option to spawn all PMCs at the start of the raid. This is disabled by default due to the possible performance impact and to prevent all PMCs from killing each other in the first 10 minutes of the raid. - Added a chance that certain maps will sometimes not have full lobbies (so fewer PMCs will spawn)
- Added an additional chance that sometimes fewer PMCs will join raids at night
- Reduced
max_alive_botsfor Labs from 9 to 6 to keep PMCs in raids longer
- Added
- Debug gizmo changes:
- Added new debug gizmo to show the time of day
- Show current enemies of bots and how far they are from them in their debug overlays
- Only show the path status of bots in their debug overlays if their path is not complete
- Slight performance improvements for the AI limiter
- Cache server queries to improve performance in subsequent raids
- Lots of refactoring
- Bug fix for bots momentarily shuffling while sprinting as they change the actions they're performing (#15)
- Bug fix for PScavs spawning at the start of night Factory raids
- Bug fix for bots never jumping or vaulting to get "unstuck" if they are trapped in weird parts of the map geometry (especially on Customs)
config.json files from previous versions are not compatible.
