Zombie Pathfinding and waist height barriers

Recommended Posts

The new Pathfinding is looking great. Thanks dev team. :thumbsup:

However,I would like to make a small suggestion.

 

What about if barriers at waist height, the type we can vault, caused the zombie to fall over them as they run into them, May look a little less odd than have them run around such a low barrier.

What do you think? :blush:

Anyway,thanks again for the great work you are all doing. :beans:

I have try for 1 hour the 0.47 and this is what come to my mind, they should be able to "jump" over it, but the idea of having them run like a retard and fall into the fence, then start run at you on "4 legs" or stand up and start running again at you can be both fun and nice to see and if their is a huge noise while they fall, like they make a should and the noise of the fence it can save your life cause sometimes they run at you without making any sound...

 

Also a IMPORTANT ask about zombies pathfinding.
Zombies should NOT be able to understand what stairs are for, they should ONLY use it when they see you up in the stairs, otherwise they should run like retard in the other floor and try to find a way and if they are lucky they will run at it, but only by luck, when a zombies hear you (or see you through windows) they should NOT run directly at the stairs like if they are intelligent and able to understand that they need to take the stairs to reach you...
They are not, its the point of zombies, deadly but stupid, they should not even be able to understand if you put blades or pike in front of them that they will impale their body at it.
So PLEASE devs, no more intelligent zombies that can take stairs.

Same for doors, idk if it will be done, but i have hear that you plan to make zombies able to smash door, and again they should NOT focus on doors or windows, they are not capable to recognize door or windows, they should try to smash the wall, BUT if they are lucky enough and that they try to smash directly at a door or a windows, well it wont take them long for brake it, and if they see you through a windows, well they will try to brake through the windows (which make barricade logic).
