Hej there, I've been around here for a time as guest, and I really like RC Bot2 for TF2.
It works like a charm (most of the time tho...) And to improve this bot, I have some suggestions here: Arena Mode: - Bot check time until capture point is available else they would all rush to the capture point and stand there - on my dedicated server (same binaries) they dont seem to capture points, even theyre doing it on a listen server with SAME waypoints and scripts Snipers: - make them sound sensitive to visible players again, they just stand on their sniper pathnodes and dont move/shoot even if there are enemy guys all over the place Soldier: - he shouldn't use his shot gun so often Heavy: - fix this god damn heavy aiming, the heavy has like 0 recoil and can hit a target with 100% accuracy (every bullet hits, even if the minigun has a large spread fire cone) - heavy should check for distance to the nearest enemy (needs testing, because there are classes that you should take out in favour of others) Spy: - spies should try to melee attack enemies from behind with knife when possible - when spies try to cap (CP, CTF, PL) they should remove their disguise Medic: - make medics heal more, than attacking, make them sensitive to "call for a medic" event and let them stick with this guys as soon as he is healed or even buffed - let medics use their ubercharge when their current healing target is being attacked: event player_hurt waypointing: - let bots check for visibility between path nodes on calculating paths to the target ie. when a door is closed, this path is blocked and they'll choose another path or another target could be a problem with doors where you can see thru though... but that will eventually render setarea and givetype areaonly useless. (needs testing, because of defense points/sentry points/teleporter exit points) this is implemented by using the "givetype openslater" waypoint type, but bots can see through EVERY door! (even though they are closed) so it doesn't work, an engine bug maybe - a waypoint type for an alternate route would be nice, so the bots dont attack only by one path, maybe with priorities, so 1 is main path, 2 a good alternative and 3 an alternative, but less good than 2 or even 1 but possible.... I've implemented "route" waypoint types for next version, they are simple additions, so we'll see how they do after a lot of testing Misc: - gravity seem not to affect bots, they jump and fall like 4x faster than usual players this is an engine bug - when bots see a dispenser (and need supplies) they should use it this is implemented but happens rarely nice to have: - bot and equipment support (use hats, other inventory you usually earn with achievements/find items) - bot should learn how real players move around in that map |

First i wanted to commend you on some excellent work I love the bots. My two kids are new to the game and still young and letting them play with bots keeps them away from the adult language in regular servers. So thank you for your hard work.
Most of the suggestions we wanted to share have been mentioned but I guess it won't hurt to add a few comments. Medics - We would love to see some ubercharge atacks. When we establish a good sentry section it would be more challenging if we had to deal with some ubercharges. Engineers - Is there anyway to get them to stay close to what they have built. It seems they build and then frolic off alot ![]() Heavys - in the latest version they tend to shoot at walls and floors or friendly players occaisionally and then hop alot. THeys still fight when attacked but their behavior seems erratic which maybe be why the medics dont heal them or team up with them. Scouts work great btw Love em. Snipers do as well Spys have definitely improved and are almost as annoying as real ones ![]() Just a few things we noticed in the games we play, We cannot wait for the next version and look forward to seeing what you dream up next. Sincerely, Doomer1 and his siblings Doomer Jr. and Misfire. P.S. We would love to see waypoints for all the default maps. Any chance you could get the community to assemble a default map waypoint pack? |
