Event Timeline

Huge collision issue with all games. The only way it will work is if they program something into the AI engine to either recognize the objects like we do, and figure out a path scheme.

Or

Avoid all objects and allow them to pass through them, so they don't cause massive lag, until something happens on the AI engine to recognize the fences.

I like fences and all, but the video glitch with them is almost not worth it.

In the case of this lifetime license of 5000.00 might be worth it. But BI is known to do their own engines, and i believe they already have one for the AI. It just needs to be tweaked.
