J20hawkz Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Nope. I literally saw a guard walk thorough full red beams. Before we could trap a guard in a room if we left the beams active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirsh Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Through hacked laser? looks like bug, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleThunder Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 As far as I know this has been fixed or the case sins update 3. Hacked or unhacked does not matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shirsh Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hacked or unhacked does not matter.why not? nonhacked beams and walls turns off when guard goes through them (and you can pass through if you drag guard), same works for agents with hacked beams and walls so if guard can pass through hacked laser beams it's bug, but if laser panel wasn't hacked it was intended behavior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleThunder Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 why not? nonhacked beams and walls turns off when guard goes through them (and you can pass through if you drag guard), same works for agents with hacked beams and walls so if guard can pass through hacked laser beams it's bug, but if laser panel wasn't hacked it was intended behavior I get the point. What I meant was: it currently does not matter whether lasers are hacked or not, they walk through them either way. Whether this is a bug, idk, but when not correctly addressed in the code, trapping guards behind a laser desperately trying to get out can cause some serious lag and/or game crashes. Though I have noticed that patrolling guards eventually go stationary during repeated pathing problems. Happens very rarely, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5thHorseman Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I get the point. What I meant was: it currently does not matter whether lasers are hacked or not, they walk through them either way.That sounds like a specific, nonrepeatable bug. I use as a tactic all the time hacking a knockout beam and then leaving it on. Guards tend to run back and forth through the beam KOing themselves for a turn at a time. You can tie up all the hunting guards on the whole level that way. I've never had one step into the beam and keep walking, once I hacked it.

Shirsh Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Looks like here at forums always would be misunderstandings with mix up of infrared and lasernormally, guard never will go through hacked laser (which is lethal cause it's not an stunning infrared wall or alarm-rising infrared beam) but will stop and change his routedoesn't have lags with trapped guards though, maybe it some issue with specific system?

J20hawkz Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 I'm only talking about lethal beams. In another play though afterwards, I had one guard behind a lethal unhacked beam. I got his attention and this time he didn't walk through it. Instead he just stood there. .So it must have been a bug in my other game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvisibleThunder Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 The same thing happened to me. I thought the guard was trapped, but at some point in the game (maybe 2 or 3 Alarm levels further) the guard was suddenly free and hunting me. Now I created a testlevel (Normal) where a guard goes from A to B through 3 beams. This is the result: Infrared beam unhacked > passinfrared beam hacked > passinfrared wall unhacked > passinfrared wall hacked > passlaser beam unhacked > no passlaser beam hacked > no passAlarm level 5 (all guards go into hunt mode) > no pass. Conculsion: the guard should not be able to pass a laser beam in any situation. Eventhought he was stuck there for a while, I started doubting myself thinking I made a mistake. But now the same thing happened to J20hawkz. Either we both made a mistake or this is a rare bug, sins he was still stuck in the test at Alarm 10.

Shirsh Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 laser beam unhacked > no passbug is a bug, I hope you detect it not too late and it would be fixed at 7th update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
