Solved Weird monster behaviour in TFS 1.1?

[Ahilphino]

The monster AI in tfs 1.1 (idk about 1.0) is EXTREMELY dumb. This has discouraged me from using TFS 1.1 even though i've spent so much time with it.

A couple of examples:

If you chase any ranged mob, let's take lizard legionaire, they will turn around every time they make an attack and this causes them to barely run away even if you set their speed to 2000.

If you're getting chased by a fast monster, let's say a grim reaper - he will stop at times. Especially when you're in melee range, then just decide to run away. It will take him like one second to react and start running after you.


There's youtube videos about it a couple of posts below

Geisor version.

Also found something weird. Monsters always look at you directly. And it leads to them snapping back and forth.

Fixed with Geisor additional fix above.

@Gesior.pl so then this code is the best?

  if (hasFollowPath) {
            if (walkDelay <= 0) {
                    g_dispatcher.addTask(createTask(std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                } else if(!isUpdatePathScheduled) {
                    isUpdatePathScheduled = true;
                    g_scheduler.addEvent(createSchedulerTask(walkDelay, std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                }
                isUpdatingPath = true;
            }

or this one?

    if (hasFollowPath) {
            isUpdatingPath = false;
            g_dispatcher.addTask(createTask(std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
        }

edit i adapted gesior code to make it work with tfs 1.5 (for me this one works pretty good the mosnter reaction is fast and attack okey too

        if (hasFollowPath) {
            if (getWalkDelay() <= 0) {
                    g_dispatcher.addTask(createTask(std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                } else if(!isUpdatePathScheduled) {
                    isUpdatePathScheduled = true;
                    //g_scheduler.addEvent(createSchedulerTask(getWalkDelay, std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                    //g_scheduler.addEvent(createSchedulerTask(&Creature::getWalkDelay, std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                    g_scheduler.addEvent(createSchedulerTask(200, std::bind(&Game::updateCreatureWalk, &g_game, getID())));
                }
                isUpdatingPath = true;
            }
