RCBot for Svencoop 5 (Angelscript)

This version of RCBot has been created from scratch with some code converted from RCBot1 and inspired by RCBot2 code. It uses the built in plugin system "AngelScript" that comes with Svencoop 5.

instructions and download here:

https://github.com/rcbotCheeseh/RCBotSven5

Usage
just download all files (Download/Clone as zip) extract into the BotManager directory in scripts/plugins. (overwrite) The files will overwrite the current "Bot" scripts as it was based on the sample.

Features
Bots can run around / shoot enemies, pick up ammo/health/weapons/armor, use health/HEV chargers, use teleports, take cover, press buttons (at objective points -- not tested), shoot breakables (not tested). (i.e. its a work in progress).
Bots CAN'T use ladders yet, or secondary fire, or use grapple etc yet or other fancy stuff.

Commands:

waypoint_off        Display waypoints off
waypoint_on        Displays waypoints on
waypoint_add        Adds a new waypoint

pathwaypoint_create1     Adds a new path from
pathwaypoint_create2     Adds a new path to
pathwaypoint_remove1
pathwaypoint_remove2
waypoint_clear
waypoint_info        (print waypoint types on current waypoint)
waypoint_givetype     give waypoint type
waypoint_removetype     remove waypoint type
waypoint_toggletype
waypoint_convert_type (from) (to).    Convert waypoint types
debug                  debug messages toggle
godmode         god mode
noclip             noclip
notarget            (no target mode)
killbots         kills all bots

<to add - notouch (needed for waypointing)>

all commands accessible via command "as_command rcbot.<command>" e.g. "as_command rcbot.addbot"

if you run into trouble (usually becuase of a nightly build) find the problem by first using the commands

CODE

note down any errors and report them

I'm needing waypoints redone These are now "rcwa" files in a different format. I made a program to convert rcbot1 waypoints to these. Downloadable here:

The new wpt converter didn't work for me, same error message. So I converted a few on my win7 PC. I double checked in installed programs, I have framework 4 Client Profile and Extended v4.0.30319 installed. Also have 3.5, 3.0, 2.0 & 1.1.

The toggletype works perfect, thanks. got my binds set now, notarget & godmode set, think I'm ready... But ran into problems with desertcircle, it might be my XP PC, not sure yet. I did add a couple bots & they did run in the direction they should, but I'm having serious lag on this map, all the wpts refresh every few seconds. I can't see most paths, and the deeper I go into the map even the wpts vanish, but wpt info says they are still there. Think i'll check this map in sc4.8 for lag, but I don't remember having paths and wpts disappear?

Quarter was the opposite, it is a perfect match, the bots are working in it, just didn't have time to fully test it. I changed all the objective/EOL (End) flags except the last one to "important" flags. I may need to tweak the important flags, may not need as many. I was using objective flags in many of my rcw's sorta like a navigation flag, to get bots to patrol an area or take an alternate route, is it ok to use important flags that way (ie. no button nearby)?

There are some unimplemented wpts in this map (crouchjump), but i'm going to leave them in for now, I assume they will just ignor them. I put the crouchjumps at some spawn room doors the old bots had wierd behavior at, slowing them way down. It will be interesting to see if that behavior is gone now, maybe the crouchjumps won't be needed?

Quarter should be ready for upload once I run the bots thru it once or twice, I hope...

I noticed on Jumpers, they are missing jumps more, i think? I need to take a close look and see how they are jumping. Many of the more complex maps have some difficult jumping spots that were extremely difficult to waypoint with the old bots. I spent days working on that first area in sc_Persia. I ended up doing non-standard ways to get bots to make those complex jumps (& human towers). Anyways, most of that can wait for latter after you implement more givetypes. I'll try to give you better feedback on that stuff latter...

For now I'll focus on converting the easier maps and checking wpts for proper fit to the sc5 maps, etc.

The .net issue night have something to do with the fact that it's using WPF but i thought that was supported in .net 3.0. I can have another look to check it is targeting the correct framework

Not sure about the lag. Don't know how the plugin system handles it. It might cause those issues you re experiencing but i haven't tested with many waypoints yet.

Its fine to use the important waypoint as a milestone. If they don't find any button etc they will just look for the next objective .

Will need to implement crouchjump. I can't remember or not if there was a long jump type , which I'll also need to do.

For maps like quarter, i think there was a defend waypoint type. If not i can add it.
