AI Perception age and stimulus source registration

Development Programming & Scripting AI

I have 2 questions.

First of all, what happens when the max age of a stimulus is reached, it says the stimulus will be “forgotten” which is visible in the debugger but the stimulus still seems to be there and not “forgotten”, only its age and location have become invalid (large numbers).

Second thing. My AI can sense other pawns of different classes that aren’t even registered as a stimulus source and I am not using the AIPerception stimuli source component. I have detect neutrals on.

I do this in blueprint in 4.9.2

For the 2nd part of your quetion:

Second thing. My AI can sense other
pawns of different classes that aren’t
even registered as a stimulus source
and I am not using the AIPerception
stimuli source component. I have
detect neutrals on.

Here you find a solution to not making pawns autoregister as stimulus source:
