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 |

For other mods made on Source SDK Base 2xxx you could include some simple installs for the bots.
So they just know how to follow waypoints and use +attack towards enemies. This could be the first step for bots in a lot of other games than CS:S. Came here because of FA:S and their bots: http://forums.firearms-source.com/threads/...rce-Google-Code |

Came here because of FA:S and their bots: http://forums.firearms-source.com/threads/...rce-Google-Code I love FA and it's awesome bot called...Marine bots...it's wpting app is kinda tricky though but manage to make a workable one on tp_dust....lol yeah de_dust for fa haha! Hope they do make one for FA:S or have rcbot2 support as well in the future. Btw mp AI is big business again as big companies like activision are incoparating them fully now on black ops 1 (bots can do tdm and ffa only), Black ops 2 - bots plays all game modes and for this year...COD:Ghost has full blown mp bots with some new good stuff to it. So yeah bots are here to stay and will soon rule the world hehe! |
