Compatiblility with NS marine vs Marine Options

[ockchul]

I wanted to know if you can make rcbot work on mvsm mod for ns
i have the mod on listen server with rcbot

when i create the bot they join the first (blue) team only. so i join the second (red) team(which is actually 3rd team i think)

the problems are:

1. even if i'm in second team the bots on first team dose not shoot at me. they just come close to me and say "i'm in position".

2. the bots join the red team(again it's 3rd team) after a round or so, but they remain frozen.

These are the problems i see.

i just wondered if it could be made possible.

if you want to know more about mvsm, play on server named richnet mvm

Hello Cheeseh,
I too am very intrested in the MvM mode with RCbots, i can bots to join both sides but the red bots do not attack. I can very easily waypoint maps and most of the MvM maps are very easy to waypoint as they dont have ladders or many objects in the way.

The main problem i am having is that its very hard to get the bots to join the red team even with abnormal_game 1 some maps accept bots on red, some maps dont. The blue bots works perfect, they follow waypoints etc...but red does not. Although i know you are working on RCbots in your spare time and everyone is very greatful but would you consider supporting them? i am a software development but i am not familar that well on C++ so cannot code it myself.

I am sure it wouldnt take long for someone with your skills to add support for MvM as the only difference between what you got already (MvA) and what alot of users would like to support (MvM) is the team name and color.

Because of this, it would take very little coding to support another team. Possible either add another section which handles / checks mvm name in the maps_config folder, if it returns to be true (mvm map type found), then run a little module of code which can then run Blue (which is already built-in) and run Red team which is currently not supported.

Not sure if you can simple run a little bit of code which adds support for red team or whether you have to completly copy and paste the marine code again but into anothe module called red team, either way shouldnt take long with your knowledge of rcbot.

If you could do that alot of people including myself would be very greatful and it would be a shame to see MvM maps being unsupported and MvM maps are far simpler to play on and develop on compared to the previous way (MvA).

So please support MvM...we beg of you...
