little Summary of RCBOTS2 for dedicated DODS Server & Gungame! Options

[darkranger]

first let me say that the bots are doing very well. its a great work. thanks.

but there are some little problems on dedicated servers.

-> when the last player leaves the server the bots are also leaving, but comming back a second later. but now they are dumb. running around and do nothing. only a mapchange will help here.
as bypass i have a sourcemod plugin installed that changes the map 2 minutes after the last human player leaves the server.

-> they server crashes sometimes. i think its comming from my plugin that removes the reload from Rockets and Pistols. it seems its a problem with "dod_stats_weapon_attack" on Sourcemod. the problem also exits on my server where i have DOGs DODSBOTS installed. after removing the plugin all runs fine till today.
--> and 1 thing i notice too. server crashes when running custom player models on the server.

-> waypointing: its easy when you only have simply waypoints. i figured out how to use ladders, but the JUMP waypoints didnt work. the documentation is, in my eyes, poor.
i do LADDERS with that commands in a row: STARTPOINT: waypoint add - pathwaypoint create1 - givetype ladder ENDPOINT: waypoint add - pathwaypoint create2 - givetype ladder.
thats ok, but how i do with JUMP ? the documentation is confusing my in that point. i didnt understand how to make JUMPs.


but again. the bots doing very well and sometimes you cannot say if the enemy that kills you is a bot or human

if someone will test the bots here is the server adress: 62.93.103.39:27550 . Server is up from 16:00CET to 06:00CET.

greetz, darkranger

Am I missing something here ? Has this been patched or has someone figured out a way to move the install stuff around to make the bots work again ?

ERRRRRR..... STEAM.... YUK ... Its not just you... steampipe borked rcbot here too. I'm getting same errors as darkranger's post... Tried moving things around & using the custom folder too, but its still a no go. I think it broke the installer too? Looks like we may need a hotfix or new procedure from Cheeseh... Guess I'm back to rcbot1 games for a short while..

Yeah, what darkranger said...

I've read thru that 3 or 4 times and I'm still a bit confused on just where to put things. Seems to be more complicated than before... The priorities of vpk's loading first & custom folder and download folder last, I think?

I've already updated the source but will have to update the files myself to test it and then update the installer too before releasing, problem is the time I have right now ...
