Figure has changed a TON in The Mines Update.
Here is what you need to know from what I have experienced so far:
- Figure's AI Figure did get "Reverted" back to his old AI, but they also changed him to have 2 different AI Paths, so be aware of this.
- Figure's New States. Figure now has "4" (2) new states, that wheren't apparent in Hotel+ / Backdoors Update.
-
Ultra Hearing. In this state, in high graphics you can visibly see this state. His ears will glow indicating he can hear very far and minor noises too. Don't be too close to him in this state!
-
Roaming State This is basically his normal state before, but in this case he can't hear across the map, so he will be just roaming through his default AI path.
-
Seeking State This is his new state after he has lost you where you made noise at. He will hover about 5-8 studs from the location he last heard noise. Then he will go back to his Roaming State.
-
Attacking State No matter what you do, if you are in 5 studs within this range, you will be eaten by him.
Figure's Ultra Hearing state is not found in The Mines (even after the balance change) but he can hear flashlight clicks and lighters.
Also he can get stuck behind a Flower Pot where you grab the paper. Have Fun!
