[Question] Unstuck?

[-Ryuk-]

Hey guys.

Just wondering how do you detect if you are stuck?

I am thinking of using movement speed like this:

                LUA.DoString("Speed = GetUnitSpeed(\"player\");");
                return Convert.ToSingle(LUA.GetLocalizedText("Speed"));

How do you guys do this?

the only bad thing about this is that it doesn't say your speed is zero when ur running into something

1. Record time
2. Record position
3. Wait
4. Record time.
5. Record position
6. Compare this time and position to previous time and position

I'm doing what MaiN said: keeping a backlog of (position, timestamp) tuples for the last N frames so that I can calculate the average speed over the last M frames to compensate for "jitter" that occurs when you're running into a steep wall.

I use the TimeMoved field in the movement struct that all units have. If it's 0, you are standing still or running into something.

Neat.
