Pathfinding problems in 0.74.16
Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2015 7:38 pm
Hello,
While i'm quite happy with the changes in pathfinding system, since the previous one was quite terrible, i encounted several problems with this newest build :
- When loading a previous game, i got one of my characters stuck below terrain. I solved it by using the "reset squad positions" without quiting the game, but i got a stability problem thereafter, when i attacked a wandering disarmed (by me) dust bandit. Little time after i knocked him out, the game crashed (see file attached).
-> When i saved the game to another slot, quit the game and launching it again with the "reset squad" option, it worked fine, no longer crash.
- As i said to another post, sometimes, all my squad gets stuck, unable to move, without reason. Can be solved by saving and reloading the game (tested only with "fresh" restard, ie completely quitting the game and launching it again, since it looks like build has some stability problems when loading a game when you are already playing one)
- Problem with finding corpses, dump dead corpses (a) and the "medic" function (b)
(a) They seem to no longer work properly. For the corpses finding and dumping, the automated task, when at highest priority work only when i select the character which is doing a task which as lower priority (3) and make it move it order to make it work.
(b) For the medic function, unless the character is already in healing range of someone to heal, it no longer moves automatically, have to set the healing manually, selecting suad members to heal one by one.
