Make Knights&Barons actually KNOW about their immunity

(1/4) > >>

ZZ:
Immunity to acid, if somebody doesn't know.

Actually, this is really strange - while they're immune to acid, why they're running from it and stay paralized when surrounded by it? I don't think it's a bug, but by some thoughts it can be.

I propose that they should don't differ acid floor and ordinary floor.

thelaptop:
While I'm not sure how the AI is currently written (either Kornel or someone who is actively reverse-engineering can advise), I suspect that each of the monsters have very similar AI programmed in them.

I think a worthy cause would be to come up with specific strategies for each monster-type to address this problem as a whole.

There is some indication of this already in place with the way demons will charge across anything, including acid or lava. I agree - it should be extended

ParaSait:
BoH's are like cats. Cats are also "immune" to water, yet they will always avoid swimming in it.
Conclusion: There's a bug in God's AI code for cats.
:P

Seriously now: I think, since HK's and BoH's are still some sort of dumb beast, they should have the "instinct" to stay outta the acid/lava even though they can bear it. Like a cat.

Oh we knew that there's a bug in the AI code for cats... something about allowing a genetic algorithm to run amok without control parameters.

But then again, HK and BoH are among the aristocracy of Hell.  Why should they be like cats?  Especially if they take zero damage from acid -- they should actively hunt DoomGuy down to purge him of hell.
