Big thanks to Keeps for supporting the channel! Here’s the site if you want to check them out! > keeps.com/techrules Hey everyone! This video was supposed to go up several hours ago! I'm extremely tired!! Essentially, there was a bit of hardware failure on my end, or in other words, there was karmic retribution for my poor backup habits. Thankfully, everything turned out okay and the video was pieced back together. There does seem to be a bit of an issue with the voiceover file, but I've smoothed it over as much as I can. Hopefully it sounds acceptable. I had a whole speech about personal goals and the direction I wanted to take the channel, and in the chaos I seem to have forgotten pretty much all of it. If it comes back to me, I'll let you know. Until then, hope you enjoy!😅

[@omegahaxors3306]

The cool thing is that in the remake you can actually tell if Baldi finds a sound interesting by his reaction in the HUD. If he gives an unsure expression then he'll consider going around that area, but if he knows you're there, he'll look excited.

[@kichiroumitsurugi4363]

Close. Basically, if he has the thinking expression, it means that the sound is lower or same priority than/as whichever one he heard prior, meaning he win'y follow it until he found the last noise. And the excited face means that this noise is on top of Baldi's priority list and is heading to it

[@cristianospohr69]

[@ZenoDovahkiin]

His internal math is more complicated because you are simply not on Baldi's level, scrub. :P

[@dylanmerleking2651]

Baldi never says “Divided by”. No multiplication or division problems appear. In the glitchy question, he does this: “(Loud noise) plus (loud noise) times (loud noise)”. In every question he says equals after he reads the question to you.

in any game, the player should be controlling an NPC technically no different than other entities. the reason for any action against the player should not be because they are the player. im guessing the principal doesnt catch other people and objects running is because your natural walking speed is low because you are extremely wide and theres no rule against teleporting.

So, this video was actually my first introduction to Baldi’s Basics. After finishing this video, I then went on a week long Baldi Binge and watched a bunch of letsplays of all the different versions out there, and then I came back here and watched this again. Needless to say I was far more informed on the information this time around, but more than anything what had originally fascinated me was the AI breakdown of this meme-era horror game I had never seen before, and how different it appeared from a stereotypical horror game, yet still manages to be so incredibly unnerving. Anyway thanks for that

Makes me wonder how fast Baldi will go at his normal absolute maximum speed - and also at the highest speed possible, probably breaking the game or Baldi's A.I.

[@ashleybyrd2015]

Depends on the implementation of "absolute maximum speed" If you were to set his move timer to 0 (or less), he would move and slap every frame (can be seen at 12:51). If you were to extend his movement range per slap higher than before, I'm pretty sure he'd move so fast he'd overshoot the player and would be stuck circling around the player.

[@ZaHandle]

NpDGilQTST STSETZXuXz **plays in 5 fps**

[@meyes5671]

baldi at least possible delay will catch you nearly instantly

[@emilyy03]

Baldi's highest speed possible is pretty much around an interval that is as long as Baldi's slapping time. He will never go any faster than that, besides ear killing. Baldi's AI and the game don't break when he's slapping regularly (he always uses the same speed for slapping, and not the interval, if you actually watched the entire video) so it's safe to say he won't even at the lowest interval.

hey, since you're on the topic of taking apart horror game AI, why not do it with a game that has a similar following to Baldi and FNAF? SLENDER! I'd love to see you tear Slenderman's AI to pieces, either in the original 8 Pages or the remake, The Arrival. I imagine the 8 Pages game would be relatively simple AI, while The Arrival would... also probably still be simple but with more to it? Like Slenderman doesn't even do anything to attack you, technically you only die if stare at him too long or in scripted sequences. Perhaps the Proxy from The Arrival would have more substance to it, but still, I'd love to see how Slenderman works in those games.

[@authenticallyopal351]

[@ZenoDovahkiin]

I think classic Slenderman just teleports after you in a zigzag pattern.

[@HansonJ]

ZenoDovahkiin He slides around behind you while you’re moving, and increases in speed with the more pages you collect. He stops moving and rotating when you’re looking at him. There are a few points in the game where there are “scripted sequences” where he spawns in certain points, I’m 90% sure it checks certain spots to see if you’re looking at them, and when you’re not he is teleported to the position that he is needed in.
