Mainly, I don't click on random links on these forums, especially not youtube. Was trying to figure out how to get rid of the tab auto-update thing when Lowtax added it before he eventually scrapped it and that lead me to clicking on a few things I normally wouldn't.

Ho hum. I've seen weirder poo poo.

hello.jpg, often referred to as "goatse", is an image of a man bending over, naked, and holding open his incredibly distended anus and rectum with both hands. He has a wedding ring on his left hand. The image is part of a larger series of images that show him loosening his anus and rectum with a progressively larger selection of adult toys. It was referred to as goatse because of the website that originally hosted it, goatse.cx.

A modder has fixed broken elements of the AI in the famously-bad Aliens: Colonial Marines by fixing a single-letter typo.

Modder jamesdickinson963 posted:

Inside your games config file (My Document\My Games\Aliens Colonial Marines\PecanGame\Config\PecanEngine.ini) is the following line of code :

code:
ClassRemapping=PecanGame.PecanSeqAct_AttachXenoToTether -> PecanGame.PecanSeqAct_AttachPawnToTeather
Im sure you'll notice the spelling mistake

code:
ClassRemapping=PecanGame.PecanSeqAct_AttachXenoToTether -> PecanGame.PecanSeqAct_AttachPawnToTether
If you fix it to look like the above and then play the game, the difference is pretty crazy!

Why is this line important? There are two reasons :
1) AttachXenoToTether doesn't do anything. Its basically empty or stripped
2) AttachPawnToTether does ALOT. It controls tactical position adjustment, patrolling and target zoning

When a Xeno is spawned, it is attached to a zone tether. This zone tells the Xeno what area is its fighting space and where different exits are. In Combat, a Xeno will be forced to switch to a new tether (such as one behind you) so as to flank, or disperse so they aren't so grouped up etc. (*disclaimer* this is inferred opinion, I cant see the actual code only bits)

Whenever the game tried to do this, nothing happened. Now it does!

ResetEra poster JigglesBunny posted:

Knowing full well how absurd this sounds on the surface, I took it upon myself to reinstall the PC version of the game, look at the .ini file and check myself. Sure enough, a single letter typo was found exactly where he claimed. I was in disbelief. As recommended, I fixed the typo, saved it in Notepad and booted the game up.

The improvement is immediately recognizable in your first encounters with the Xenos. While they still charge you perched on their hind legs, they now crawl far more often, flank you using vents and holes in the environment and are generally far more engaged and aggressive. Five years after release, a single letter managed to overhaul the entirety of the enemy AI behavior in the game.

this is a testament to that game's legacy: nobody cared, nobody checked, nobody bothered

There was probably a debug message saying it couldn’t find the remapping target, but it was probably drowned in a sea of debug messages. Or maybe there was no debug message at all, who knows?

Logically, the game engine should’ve aborted at startup as soon as it figured out the remapping target didn’t exist, except games spend 90% of their development cycle partially broken so if you can’t boot the game, you can’t test whatever it is you’re working on while the AI programmers are off doing their own thing.

There should’ve been a Release mode that turns all warnings into fatal errors, except all games ship unfinished so there’s probably multiple fatal errors at startup that are ignored because they ran out of time and it was good enough.

The Xeno method was the empty placeholder, the typo was in the name of the generic method that should’ve been used instead.

There is apparently a second typo in the same spot that also breaks parts of the game. Truly a masterpiece.
