IsInDangerousArea Condition

[Cindervein]

Reporting on a vanilla bug ~ I'm tinkering with the AI and I've discovered the IsInDangerousArea condition doesn't work. A commonly called upon condition as it's used in the CheckIfNeedToMove behavior. This is suppose to be a check for whether they are in a hazardous area or not (fire, acid, gas).

Likely to be problematic to fix - When the behavior tree looks at IsInDangerousArea as a condition for doing something, it checks bt_status IsInDangerousArea() in X2AIBTDefaultConditions.

The code path is XGAIBehavior::IsInDangerousArea & in turn, XComPath::TileContainsHazard, which is native. So options are a bit limited.

The behavior is largely part of the DoIfFlankedMove node, which is supposed to check if units are already standing on a hazardous tile or not. In practice, units with DoIfFlankedMove high up on the behavior tree should also try to get out of tiles with fire/acid etc. on them, but it's not used to prevent units from pathing through such hazards while moving.

Would be interesting to log the output of the isindangerousarea function and seeing whether the native part of this is not working or if it's actually a more conventional AI / tree related problem.
