Please forgive me, I'm a little confused about the paths. My dedicated server is installed via HLDSUpdateTool. Consequently, there is no "steamapps" or any such folder on my server. Base folder is: CODE C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf So, do I do this: Put "rcbot2" folder like this: C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\rcbot2 Put HPB_Bot2.dll into C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\bin Does that sound right? Can I put rcbot2 under C:\Program Files\Valve\SourceDS\orangebox\tf\addons? or must it be directly under the TF base folder?

I see a min and max_bot option there, and that may work on a lan server, but as its a dedi server, and we're adding bots via rcon, am i right in saying, this will be able to remove the bots under rcbot control, but it wont be able to add them again ?

Because of this then i think the auto kick/join function wont work on dedi servers. am i right in saying this?

This is my problem, when the slots are available for a bot to be auto re-added, the bots wont join as rcbot/d doesnt work on dedi servers? just wondering if there was another way to do this
