AI not moving
Posted 5 years ago

Hi all,

Hopefully this hasn't yet been posted. But since today's update all AI have not been moving/interacting with the player. It's as if it's back a few years ago to when we had server nav disabled.

Looking at console, this is the error that pops up when trying to spawn a Scientist. 

assets/prefabs/npc/scientist/htn/scientist_junkpile_pistol.prefab failed to load AI design!​

Thanks!

Hey Guys, the server's root folder now (I don't know if it did before?) contains a folder called "cfg".

/home/steam/rust_server/cfg​

My Linux user running the server didn't have access permissions to that folder, as soon as I gave the user full access the AI started working again and the error messages stopped.
Check if you have that folder - if not, something probably went wrong while updating.


Demo71 found the solution for this!

Hey guys, I'm having this same issue, AI don't work in my server and I getting the same red errors in the server cmd window

"Error trying to find AI design by name: cfg/ai/scientist.junkpileassets/prefabs/npc/scientist/htn/scientist_junkpile_pistol.prefab failed to load AI design!"

Here's where it gets weird. I reformatted my entire server today, fresh new windows server install. I installed steamcmd, installed the rust server, no oxide, pure vanilla. Started the server, and I'm getting the same errors again, AI errors.

What in the WORLD could be causing this to happen?
