CheckSight

Note: This function is for ACS. For the ZScript function of the same name see CheckSight (ZScript).

bool CheckSight (int source, int dest, int flags)

Usage

This function performs a sight check to see if an actor is (or multiple actors are) within the line of sight of another actor (or other actors). This check is inclusive and returns positive if any actors with either tid have a line of sight between each other. 0 can be used in place of either tid and means the script activator.

Parameters

• source

TID of the actor(s) doing the searching.

• dest

TID of the actor(s) to search for.

• flags

Flags to modify the search behavior. Currently supported flags are:

CSF_NOFAKEFLOORS: Ignores fake floors created by Transfer_Heights.

CSF_NOBLOCKALL: Ignores lines marked "Block Everything". Monsters can see through these lines if there's a chance that shooting them will make them unblock (like scripted breakable glass).

Return value

True if any of the specified actors have a line of sight, or false otherwise.
