okay, i have a question about info_nodes...
first, what are info_nodes, and what do they do?
second, i've never included any info_nodes in my maps, and they turn out fine, so what do info_nodes do??

info_nodes are used for AI navigation.

They set points for the AI system to help the navigation of enemy monsters such as hgrunts and islaves. Proper placement and tweakage can help the AI systems a lot and make enemy monsters seem much smarter.

for example, make a few rooms and put an enemy in. one that can move. as soon as he sees you he attacks, and when you move out of his range...... ... ... ...

but with info nodes in place he would chase after you, as long as the info nodes allowed. read the last "in the beginning" tutorial for more info.

Suggest you get familiar with the Search bar on this site, other wise I might think I wasted several day's writing an Entity guide....
