How to check that player is seened by AI

OK. There is cog description:

Stormtroops (basicly 3-4) should patrol building outdoor (4 ghosts) and when player go intro they see area (stormtroops get alerted then they start fire etd ai order) cog should fail level (jkendlevel(1[0?])). Someone can make such cog for me? (or write part how to check ai see player.

Hi there [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

I've been wondering the same thing, but the sighted message is not the appropriate method for going about this... and neither is HasLOS() [http://forums.massassi.net/html/frown.gif]

I've tried a couple of things but so far I've run up against a brick wall... I've also tried the IsAITargetInSight() verb but that doesn't seem to want to work either...

In short, I'm stumped for the moment, but I'll post back if/when I find a solution/work-around fix [http://forums.massassi.net/html/wink.gif]

you can check to see if an ai has seen you like this:
Code: 
pulse:
     if(AiGetMode(ai_thing) & 0x400)
          {
          //-AI has a target do something...
          }
return;

it works as far as i know.

I guess you could combine HasLOS, vectordist, and getthinglvec of AI to determine whether you're more than likely to be attacked.

look at what i posted again.

its:
if(AiGetMode(ai_thing) & 0x400)
not:
if(AiGetMode(ai_thing) == 0x400)

fix that then it should work.
