Cool.

I'm having trouble with Rantako's telepathic behaviour script; KeeperEnforcerSeesPlayer doesn't seem to be triggering. I've set it all up exactly how his post specifies. ((http://ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1256944#post1256944))

I realise that it didn't work in OMs because the link wasn't being created on already-created assassins, but the first script should at least be firing. It's not.

I've even done this in an attempt to provoke a response:

CONDITIONS:
When linked AI [MYSELF] sees player
ACTIONS:
Kick the user to the title screen
Invisibility: Pawns attached via [MYSELF] will become invisible for the next [10.00] seconds.
(etc.)

No dice. I've tried adding the script to the archetype, and to the concrete actor. It simply isn't triggering. :weird:

I've saved and resaved everything (the map, the gamesys, all of the scripts). It can't be the When/Query problem because there is exactly one When condition. Grr.

I'm doing this in a modified Stonemarket2 map. I would try it on a different map but I'm getting crashes (on any map) - I think I messed up the gamesys somehow. Now I remember why I don't like T3Ed. :sweat:

No, I was testing in non-debug mode. (Send to Xbox.)

And they were seeing me and searching after me, just... individually.

I sure hope so. It's apparent I'm late for this thread, but I like the changes. :D
Please make a patch! *puppy eyes*
I'm only about to download the Editor, and it will be ages before I learn how to use it, if I ever do.

As for NPCs being more on edge when Enforcers are near.... You could somehow make them mory jumpy and inspect the slightest noises, like the sensory acuteness when you change the difficulty of a mission....
The changes made so far would, I expect, add enormously to the 'stalked' feeling.
Another suggestion: If you take one out, even unexpectedly, the others notice. Geez, guys! You remember the mental screams they make?!

Yes, and that's a sad thing. But my opinion on T3Ed is settled for now: It just can't do it. And that's even more sad. T3Ed, although loaded with lots of properties and stuff, is far away from being a tool as versatile as the "simple" Dromed. I think it's out long enough now to have proven its strengths. A comparison of the traffic here and over at the Dromed forum tells you the whole story. It was like that from the beginning and it hasn't changed a bit ever since. One would expect that the interest in T3Ed would rise even a by a small amount after all that time. I don't believe this is because T3Ed is still new and people haven't tamed it yet, or because guys like me keep bashing it. It's because it doesn't work as expected. It has weaknesses everywhere, not only in scripting (although I think scripting is a major issue). But what is even worse, there seems to be no way to overcome these weaknesses other than by hacking the whole engine.

Fixing the Keeper/Assassins isn't that hard. Making a patch to fix them in the OM's is another story. :p
