The purpose of the ai2_chump is simply to test pathfinding. The idea was for the devs to be able to see the pathfinding grid and watch the chump as it followed Konoko to see how it chose a path along the grid. I don't know of a way to change the enemy that is spawned or to make him fight.

I'll leave the question about taking control of an AI to someone else more knowledgeable, but I don't think it's possible.

"What is spawn?" I don't know what you're asking.

The console is just glitchy for some people. The only glitch I've had personally was that the console would not show up at all in high resolutions. It works reliably at 1024x768 for me.

To "spawn" means to create something new, so to "spawn" an enemy is to make him appear in the level.

Hopefully that's what you're asking.

The only way to change what the chump spawns as is through engine hacking.

Phydur · 10/28/09 14:10

To control AI:
type "who" and a list of characters will appear (if any characters are in range.)
look for the # symbol. thats the number you want. then type
"chr_focus chr_index:int" where chr_index:int = the number you want. then type
"ai2_takecontrol 0"

so for example, if you where in the beginning of the dream lab level you would type

who

and it would say
konoko (class k4_G, #0)
IntroMuro (class muro_generic, #1) (state none)
see how it says #1? thats the chr_index number you want, so type

chr_foucs 1
ai2_takecontrol 0

and now you're controlling muro.
to switch back to konoko, type

chr_focus 0

be careful though. i haven't used it too much so you might find glitches.
one thing i do know, if you kill konoko, its game over,even if you're controlling someone else.
and i think if they have a gun they'll try an shoot at konoko, even if you're controlling them.
this is all in the command console, of course.

oh, and remember to give control back to the AI, by typing "ai2_takecontrol 1" before swtiching back to konoko, because otherwise they'll just stand there. i think.

nothing come out after i press who in the cmd =[

Iritscen · 10/28/09 15:10

You had characters standing near you at the time?

dream996 · 10/28/09 15:10

right in front of me

Iritscen · 10/28/09 16:10

Was it the chump? Or other characters?

Samer · 10/28/09 16:10

I just tried it it works for me, thanks Phydur, it's fun to play as the bad guys and just make them walk off the ledge
I should be studying :S bye

dream996 · 10/28/09 17:10

other characters...

Leus · 10/28/09 18:10

Yeah "who" did nothing for me either, but I just typed the number I knew they spawned as because I was just spawning them manually anyway... Lol... So, that focus/takecontrol 0 combo is cool. I kind of have a script idea based on it now.

Phydur · 10/28/09 21:10

hmmm maybe "who" is a windows only command?
*edit*
well, i checked the wiki, and its in the list for both windows and Mac.
so i donno.
maybe gumby, or someone else can help you...?

*edit2*
Try entering

co_display=1

do you see any console text when you type things in? after you hit enter, I mean?
if you don't, that might fix it.

very interesting... i found out about the "focus" command, but i hadn't thought to combine it with the ai2_takecontrol command

if you want to make it so that you don't loose when Mai dies (if your willing to go through the trouble that is) you would have to edit the BINACJBOCharacter file for each level i believe and change Konoko's flags, there should be a "you loose" flag there, if that is deleted, then you wont loose when she dies

this combo of commands could definately open some new doors in scripting... ill definately look into some new concepts when i have time

Gumby · 10/28/09 22:10

Or you could just edit the "you_lose" function in the scripts...

Leus · 10/28/09 23:10

Or you could just edit the "you_lose" function in the scripts...

Yeah.

Speaking of which, isn't that just a function that's instructed to be called when <event> happens--in this case death? 'Cause I typed the name of a function of mine into a character's <die> tags in the BINACHAR but it doesn't execute when they die... Hrm.

Gumby · 10/29/09 00:10

That's how it should work...I've used it many times before and never had a problem...

Phydur · 10/29/09 00:10

hey leus, im curious, did my sugestion work?
for the dev console thing?

and while im posting, i'd like to mention again that a long time ago i had an idea for a "treasure hunt" game
now that we can make our own flags, its possible!
i'd do it myself, but i dont have the time, realy.
but basicly have a bunch of random locations where a set item could be found (say the LSI?)
and when you pick it up you win.
this would be better for a multiplayer game as you could compete wtih other players to find the item first...
but thats not possible yet...
its simple but a fun idea.
maybe one of you guys could make it...

That would be very easy to do.

Leus · 10/29/09 00:10

Yeah the co display thing was the problem. Also I'll think about that treasure hunt idea.

dream996 · 10/29/09 04:10

You don't type the cheat codes on the console, but there are scripting-command equivalents for a number of cheats. See the table on the "Cheats" page on the wiki.

dream996 · 10/29/09 09:10

If you press an illegal key during console input (such as F1), the input display will freeze : hit Tab a few times to fix.

use the ~ key, or whatever key you have the console set to, again to turn it off first.

and nothing happens when you enter "who"?
thats weird. it should show something...
does it really not do anything at all?
