So why can't sackbots be in water?

Archive: 11 posts


They get electrocuted if they touch it, why is this? I mean, I understand logically, they are bots, so makes sense. But why couldn't of MM just ignored that?2011-02-05 23:33:00

They would have to program the artificial intelligence to be more advanced to be able to swim in water, which is silly, because it sounds like it would be simple to program anyways, but AI programming is really hard...

Anyways, as a small workaround for this, check this out. (https://lbpcentral.lbp-hub.com/index.php?t=44635-Placing-Sackbots-in-Water-Without-Tragedy)

Thanks warlord But to the OP I would say exactly what warlord said but Mm told us "It would fry there circuitry" I mean they are SackBots but Mm is just saying that because it would be to hard to have them in water 2011-02-06 01:19:00

The navigation AI of the sackbots is EXTREMELY basic and simple. To make them swim would require to make their AI quite more complex that what it is now and Media Molecule probably didn't want that for multiple reasons. Time is probably one of them and they probably didn't want the AI to weight too much so we have more "space" when creating. Current consoles' memory is sparse, it's already amazing to be able do to all that we are doing right now in create mode.2011-02-06 04:11:00

I was so disappointed to find that my sackbots got electrocuted. I had to change my whole level plan... Very sad...2011-02-06 06:52:00

Uh, I'm no programmer but cant they just copy the code from Sackboy into the Sackbot?

Anyway, we don't need Sackbots to have any logic or swimming A.I at all, just made to not die in water. We can do the logic ourselves.

You can make Sackbots survive in water, I watched a video once... but it invloves complex settings and recording the swimming animations and stuff.2011-02-06 08:38:00

Short explanation:

Sackbots+Water=Tragedy

Water proof would be great though.
