rcbot 2 - no cheats needed Options

[Cheeseh]

I've got bots to join without needing cheats now without needing an extra plugin! It was so simple but I just thought of why it wasn't working today and fixed it.

*Waypoints made in this version won't work in older versions!

As far as I know, waypointing and many waypoint commands, on dedicated servers, are not supported by RCbot2. Waypointing can only be done on listen server client. Remote waypointing won't work, it must be done locally. RCbot1 does support dedi/remote waypointing, at least over LAN it works fine.

Cheeseh talked about this a couple times I believe... I had to google search to find this one... HL2 sdk won't support it, see this...

It probably shouldn't crash, but it may cause one ? I never tried waypoint save on dedi... Is this new with the latest .79 dll, has it worked before?

Should i try to use RCbot 1 instead of 2?
Well i have to say some earlier versions of rcbot2 worked perfectly fine until this one

No, RCbot1 is for Half-life 1 engine and HL1 mods (svencoop, natural selection, tfc, The Specialist, etc.). RCbot2 is for HL2 engine & mods HL2:DM , TF2 , and DOD:s...

RCbot2 should work on dedicated server, but as far as I know, waypointing on dedicated server doesn't. So if waypointing on dedi was working for you, that is a surprise to me!

You can waypoint with .76 or older and the waypoints will be compatible with .79. However, as soon as you load an older waypoint into .79 , .79 will generate a new visibility table and save the waypoint automatically in the new format. So, the newly saved .79 waypoint is not compatible with older versions of RCbot. (With .79, If older version waypoints load ok on your dedi, then at least the auto waypoint save doesn't crash on dedi)

I would like to point this out again...

I would recommend to anyone making or modifying waypoints with this new version, to backup thier .76 and older waypoints before loading them into .79. Once that old waypoint has been loaded into .79, it will no longer work in .76 and older. The original waypoint is replaced with the new version/format.
