CODE

This release includes two DLL files.
One which is the normal dll (HPB_Bot2.dll) expects the rcbot2 folder in the users/ directory
Another (HPB_Bot2o.dll) uses the old filesystem position in HL mods folder which either:
   1. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / account name directory for non steampipe mods, or...
   2. expects the rcbot2 folder in the steam / common directory for steampipe mods

Is it my imagination , or are the bots using multiple routes better (multi-pathing)? I've been tweaking & testing flash, and it seems they are covering the map better than before. Also, snipers seem to hold better in the axis sniper perch without being forced to stay?

well yeah sniping has been slightly improved, but only their aiming and waiting a little bit. If they see an enemy they'll wait a bit longer for the same enemy to come back out, and look in or around the same place they saw the last enemy. Although I can't remember if that would have been available already in the last release

I don't think there were any improvements to path finding however! But it might depend on your rcb file which is made and updated automatically, or maybe it was deleted and bots had to make a new one . Rcb files put a value on each waypoint for each team (a danger value), bots will take routes with lower danger values depending on the situation. They will defend waypoints with higher danger values
