Summary0003422: AI ignore breaking glass of gas arrow
DescriptionSince a gas arrow makes a breaking glass sound when it hits, it should draw the attention of any nearby AI. This should cause them to at least look in the direction of the sound.
Additional InformationThe projectile result for the gas arrow creates the green cloud effect, the sound of the glass breaking, and the gas stim. It should also create a propagated sound that nearby AI can hear.
TagsNo tags attached.

How did you fix this?

I just shot a bunch of gas arrows near patrolling AI and none of them paid any attention.

"tdm_showsprop 1" should show that the AI are hearing the arrow. It's not a very loud noise though, about the same as a water arrow, so they won't react unless you shoot it fair close. But they definitely hear it.

I don't want to make it too loud, or AI will walk towards it, possibly walking right into the gas.

To me it sounds loud enough to be something they'd be interested in, but it's not loud enough for them to care. I planted one next to an AI's head and he showed no interest, and a moment later he was on the floor anyway.

Ah, well.

Thanks.

Were you on the same team, by chance? In my testmap AI didn't react when I was a friendly, but they did when I was an enemy.

We can try something louder if you like. How far away should AI react to it?

Yes, same team.

Leave it as it is. I was able to at least get a guard to say something about having heard something. He's supposed to look toward a sound when he doesn't plan to walk to it, but that's not happening, and is something I need to look into.

Ok, I'll set it back to resolved then.
