SRB2-AI

[shadowstar]

Would it be possible to make a character AI? Like make it learn from you by watching what you do in the game and copying it.(keystrokes, pathway, ect.) Or, you could make it learn from other people...like make commands in the console: learn from me; learn from others. You could also make it like already have intelligence and not be able to expand on it... of course that'd be no fun so... Also, you could make it like so either you could battle with it or it could play WITH you against the other players...That'd be cool on 1P because Tails could help you....You could also speak commands to it to tell it to do certain things... I doubt anyone would have the time to do this.. even if they don't, posting this was worth it just in case. 8)

 

[SRB2-Playah]

I don't think that's possible at the moment. :?
But still... :|
That would rock.
"Tails, Bop that robot!"
"Tails, fetch me that emblem there!
"Tails, Jump into that slime!"
"Tails, jump into that bottomless pit!
"Tails, smash your head repeatedly into that wall!"
"Tails, get me a danish!"

Kinda like INNER SPACE action connamds?
You could use hotkeys to guide your character! Like, R would be to get rings, K would be to kill a robot, I would be to get an item box, A would be to attack another player, E would be to find the exit, etc.

If those were implemented, then making an AI BOT would be a lot esier!

 

[shadowstar]

Yeah, that could work, seriously.

 

[JTE]

... ... ... No.
Noone has the time to do that for SRB2 currently, not even me.
And if I were to make it, it would only be a learning racing bot which would record which sectors it goes through, and getting knocked into the wrong sector would lead to it struggling to get back up to wherever it was. And even that would take a long time to make. So... No. :) Maybe later. You know. After SRB2 is 'finished'?

 

[shadowstar]

It's gonna be finished??

 

[hotdog003]

!
It really is going to be finished?
!

 

[JTE]

If you call 1.10 finished, sure.
But it might not make it too far past 1.09. Lets hope it does.

 

[Omega the Hedgehog]

The day that SRB2 is finished is the day that the full-length, 100% 3D-rendered, 2 hour TNAoStH movie special premiers in theaters.

 

[hotdog003]

Rendered in realtime, of course!

 

[Shadow Hog]

Powered by ATi Radeon X850 XT PE, of course.

In the Source Engine.

 

[hotdog003]

No. By then, computers will be so powerfull, they only need the CPU because they only will use light to bounce everything around so fast.
0.5 GBs a sec, yeah! :P :D *drools*

 

[Shadow Hog]

Bah. If you're thinking an era when processors are good enough to render all that crap on their own, then we're talking several TBs per second.

 

[Supershadow]

TB? What's that? A Tegabyte?


I'm a... a... noob.

 

[Shadow Hog]

Close. Terabyte, actually.

 

[hotdog003]

1000b = 1KB
.............1000 KB = 1 MB
.............................1000 MB = 1 GB
..............................................1000 GB = 1 tb

Get this:
1 Tb = 1000 Gb = 1000000 MB = 1000000000 KB = 1000000000000 B!
That's 1,000,000,000,000 bytes, or 1 trillion bytes. Terabyte. Get it?

 

[SSNTails]

Using standard metics, anyway.

Computers use Base 2, so 1024 bytes = 1kb, 1024kb = 1mb, 1024mb = 1gb, 1024gb = 1tb, etc.

 

[ST218]

1000 is easier to remember and calculate though.

 

[hotdog003]

Which would you rather do, SSN?
5Mb * (1024 * 1024) = 5242880
or
5Mb * 1000 * 1000 = 5000000?
Much easier, although less accurate.
:D

 

[SSNTails]

*shrug* 5mb in binary is

10000000000 (1024)
x
10000000000 (1024)
x
101 (1024)
=
10100000000000000000000


See? To a computer, 1024 is an 'even' number.
