PLZ test it, Captain ! (U can downlaod below ,ALL latest modified source and DLL uploaded)

After the secondary attack code, i added some new codes of AUX Power for bot,(of cause my new code is based on bot button again, this time i think it 's not as good as i thought, because bot only use AUX power to rush when he wants to kill an enemy or he is under attack. I think let bot rushing is a random thing, so i need time to try if i can change the bot button thing to random bot action.

Now i bring u a small problem:

i think these code below make bot stand and jump on one point to shoot his enemy, would u plz adjust the time value so the bot can be standing there for a short time. then bot can take more time to use AUX power to rush and flank. (i tried a whole day to adjust the time value, but in vain)

bot.cpp

void CBot :: jump ()
{
if ( m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_JUMP) )
{
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_JUMP,0/* time to press*/,0.5/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
// do the trademark jump & duck
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_DUCK,0.2/* time to press*/,0.3/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
}
}

void CBot :: duck ( bool hold )
{
if ( hold || m_pButtons->canPressButton(IN_DUCK) )
m_pButtons->holdButton(IN_DUCK,0.0/* time to press*/,1.0/* hold time*/,0.5/*let go time*/);
}

Well... Running this version might be the cause of server crashing with this error: ED Aloc: No Free Edicts
Tested on 2 servers, and when we go back to the cheesy dudes version it works fine again... Maybe there is something here you can look at: http://articles.thewavelength.net/444

A quote from this article: "Firstly, if there was no delay, as the use key is held down for about a second the code will loop, dropping and picking up weapons. This will result in a not enough edicts error and crash the game"

Thanks to [EYE] Loki for finding this article

Keep up the work
