RCBot 1.4 BETA, For NS 3.0 + other stuff (GET IT :P) Options

[Cheeseh]

remember this is BETA, meaning I haven't tested it properly, but is most up to date version of the bot

june 12 - 2006

fixed bots still chatting with chat_percent 0 ( i think)
better unwaypointed navigation (still crap though)
more robust team detection in the specialists (could have been causing crashes)
mvm/ava maps in ns: fixed teams not moving to enemy base (I think),
added more commands (see rcbot digest post!)
more stuff

fixed hanging in the specialists when grenade thrown

30th january
svencoop: new pain waypoint (place areas where death occurs until triggered e.g. svencoop2) also make sure no paths pass by the waypoint in your waypoint files.
svencoop: bots shoot shootable buttons better
svencoop: bots stopping and zooming with sniper rifle sometimes
svencoop: when a bot is being healed they will also heal the healing player
all mods: fun command "rcbot util explo" (try "rcbot util explo 2000" hehehe)
NS: another tweak to hopefully fix bots not shooting when holding mines


16th december
changed: faster GA learning
changed: dynamic aiming speeds
fixed: bots using teams in HLDM
changed: learning stuff in NS for attacking electrified objects with melee weapons

note: you might want to increase the aiming_speed in bot profiles a little bit.

can now edit rcbot folder with rcbot_folder.ini file:

here's what to do: if you want to put rcbot in a fodler OTHER THAN half-life/rcbot then make a file called "rcbot_folder.ini" in the MOD folder (NOT rcbot folder!! or that's just stupidity...) then just put the folder where rcbot is installed in the file RELATED TO THE "half-life" folder

For example: If I wanted to put the rcbot fodler inside NS/ folder you NEED a rcbot_folder.ini file in "ns/" like this:

ns\rcbot

that's it

...............

[edit]

heres a more up to date version...

added config varaiable "rcbot config not_ns3final" set it to 1 if not using the latest NS for compatibility.
fixed aliens weapons
bots 'learn' when they want to follow enemy (not tested much) no doubt they'll never follow, making them live longer

------------
Okay I got some stuff fixed for NS 3.0,

aliens attack!
marines receive orders without crashing!
faster waypoint path-finding algorithm (less cpu!)
bots learn when to take cover + where to take cover sometimes
added skitchy's code for aliens evolving in combat!!

mtamod rcbot dll DOWNLOAD is attached right here

Heyyo,

Err.. standard protocol? bot's have on?

Anywho, did some waypointing, w00t! check for lift now has its own waypoint color! I'm guessing tan?

Cheesh, can you give "Objective/End Of Level" waypoint flags a color too please? obviously that's one of the most important waypoints, so giving it an identity would be cool. Right now I think it slighly shades the waypoint a bit brigther.. not a very easy difference to spot.
