Author Topic: Zombies with a twist  (Read 561 times)

AI has taken over recently, all making havoc over servers, so I have a better idea for new AI monsters which are nicer.

I was playing City Build (On my server :D) and thought 'hmm...I wish zombies didn't attack'.
I am useless at scripting and wondered if it would be possible to remove the follow and attack scripts from the original zombie mods to get basic, friendly civilians that walk around. It would make Cities more realistic.

There...Answer...  :panda:

Yeah, the wander script inside the copy mod. That would be cool. And they should pull out a knife or gun and attack you if you attack them first. ;D

Yeah, well the general idea was peace loving citizens, but undercover agents would be awesome too!
However, noone has worked out how to make a zombie draw a gun. they spawn with it

They could also have some sort of randomly generated personalities. For example:

So a civilian spawns and randomly gets given a number from 1 to 90. So lets say... 86. They start exploring and they see a person. They have an 86 percent chance of attacking that person with a weapon that they pull out. So the civilian pulls out a pistol and shoots away! If they are killed, it all starts over again!

Soo... in conclusion, the larger the number, the more aggressive that person will be. They will wander around randomly, and depending on their personality number, they will attack people, or stay away. if someone had personality # of 90, they have a 90 percent change that they will attack the first person they see.  If any civilian is attacked, they will have a chance of attacking back depending on their personality number. A civilian with a number of 1, will most likely run away if attacked.

Also, the longer a civilian has been alive, the more powerful weapons they will get.

Incorporation with CityRp: They could get jobs depending on their personality, ask to buy weapons (maybe) and get jailed by cops. Getting jailed would lower their personality by 10 or so, and their weapons all get taken away.

If this is at all possible, then I think it would be quite epic.

EDIT: Holy long post...

Amade made this for the clan, it's quite nice. They wouldn't be zombies, just a civilian AI. Amade's Craftsmen Suit Bots do the following:

Has 4 different skin colors, randomly chosen. (Pale, White, Mexican, Black)

Has two types, Walking that moves around randomly and Sitting that just sits and watches the nearest player.

And features some OnBotActivated, OnBotHarmed, etc input events.

So it's very possible, and I do agree that it's very nice.

Fine...
But can i be made like...now?
