Heat-seeking Charger (Script)

Description
YE NO DODGE CHARGER

Charger automaticly turns towards nearby survivors.


Blame Simplex for this

Settings in ems/trackingcharge/settings.cfg
MINDOT: a number between 1 and -1, the smaller this is the sharper turn the charger can take (default 0, max turn is right-angle)
MAXDIS: the max distance at which the charger starts guiding towards survivors, in hammer units, default 960

The configs in the thumbnail are MINDOT=-1, MAXDIS=1440 and the survivor is sped up to 1.5x speed
The configs in the example image are MINDOT=0, MAXDIS=720, survivor moves at normal speed

How cool and terrifying! I guess this means it's no longer possible to dodge chargers by quickly side-stepping them when this mod is on. So just be hopeful it doesn't have you in its sights!

Unfortunately, i didn't succeed, i wrote "MAXDIS = 15", but the Charger still freezes in place while grab a survivor.

This sometimes caused by charges locking onto survivors directly below it when it hits a survivor, making it think it should go "down" to get the survivor which it cannot do. Can probably be fixed by making it ignore survivors within say 20 hammer units.

Hi, great mod, but why Charger is "gets stuck in air" when he grabbed survivor, and stops run?

I almost forgot that conversation! Okay. I take full blame. ☠️

the usual pitfalls of using script addons and using addons in versus apply, but, aside from that. Yes, you can
