[sourcemod] Bot management Options

[Tom Hackers]

~EDIT~ by cheeseh ---- file uploaded attached below

~EDIT~ by Tom ---- sorry, guys, i don't support this anymore, source code can be found in attachment.

First of all, i would like to thank Cheeseh for RCBot.

But i thought it would be great to make bots change classes after a while, as well as removing them when humans connect, and adding them when they disconnect, i saw "rcbot config minbots" and "rcbot config maxbots" cvars somewhere on forum. But i decided to create a sourcemod plugin for maintaining bots.
And i guess i can post it here on forum. Source code of my sourcemod plugin is provided.

CODE

Plugin game: Team Fortress 2
Plugin require: RCBot!
Plugin author: Tom Hackers
Plugin category: Server Management
Plugin version: 1.0.6 (updated 10 august 2009)
Plugin description:
bot_count_blue - Keep that count of bots in blue team. Default: 9.
bot_count_red - Keep that count of bots in red team. Default: 9.
bot_changeclass2 - Allow bots to change classes after X deathes. Default: 1.
bot_changeclass_dc - Death amount. Default: 4.
bot_count_humans - Count humans as bots. So humans replace bots. Default: 1.

bot_respawn_time - Respawn time of bot's in second, keep in mind that this will be +1 second longer due to class changing. Default: 1. Value less then 1 - Disabled.
bot_respawn_humans - This will respawn humans just like bots. Default: 1. If zero, only bots will be spawned if time >= 1.
bot_names_file - Bot names file. Default: botnames.txt, warning! File should exist in "sourcemod/configs" directory!
bot_console_cheats - Allow server console to use cheat commands and adding bots without sv_cheats 1. Default: 1. Switch this to 0, if you use admin cheats plugin.

I will keep this updated... Also you should find "tf2.bots.cfg" in "cfg/sourcemod" folder. Have a nice time.
Do not forget to create botnames.txt file in "sourcemod/configs" folder, with names of bots.

Notes: This is sourcemod's plugin, extract sourcemod folder into addons folder, overwrite: yes. Enjoy.

Changelist 1.0.3 to 1.0.4:
- Fixed SourceTV bug, now you can use SourceTV on server and it won't crash (tv_enable 1).
- Fixed possible join/disconnect spam issues.
- Now sv_cheats cvar affect bot_console_cheats cvar, if sv_cheats is 1, everyone can use cheats, i.e. my plugin won't block cheat commands from clients.
- Changed version to 1.0.4.

Changelist 1.0.4 to 1.0.5:
- Now you can use spaces in bot's names.
- Default names file plugin looking for is botnames.txt! But you can create your own one and change the file name plugin is looking for!
- Changed version to 1.0.5.

Changelist 1.0.5 to 1.0.6:
- 2 new cvars!
bot_respawn_time - Respawn time of bot's in second, keep in mind that this will be +1 second longer due to class changing. Default: 1. Value less then 1 - Disabled.
bot_respawn_humans - This will respawn humans just like bots. Default: 1. If zero, only bots will be spawned if time >= 1.
- Fixed possible issue when server is full and bots do not respond to their count cvars.
- From now plugin works both on dedicated and listen servers.
- Plugin do not work without RCBot dll!
- Few misc. changes in code.
- Changed version to 1.0.6 and made "bot_manager_version" cvar, so from now you should be able find servers that use my plugin, for example, thro game-monitor.

You can get latest version ~snip it is attached~.

Also i uploaded example of botnames.txt file (255 names). Also i guess people can post bug reports here (plugin's bugs).
I'm not super plugin coder... I do my best. ^^

Crashing problems, I've tried to install this, it took me atleast an hour to get it to even run RCBots, then, i tried to use your mod, and it crashes after adding a few bots

I tried disabling your mod, and adding bots with the rcbot addbot command, it says "bot added" (or something similar) then no bots are actually added

I've tried all sorts of different builds, none have worked so far, i really want your mod, as it will automate things for me

A little more info, I'm using HldsUpdateTool Version of TF2, i have "RCBot2" in the same folder as "orangebox", i have the "HPB_bot2.dll" "in orangebox/bin" folder, i have 32 profiles, i have a profiles.txt with the following in it:

CODE

Valid Weapons in HLDM

weapon_smg1         (Submachine Gun)
weapon_shotgun         (12-Gauge Shotgun)
weapon_rpg         (Rocket-Propelled Grenade Launcher)
weapon_pistol         (9mm Pistol)
weapon_physcannon     (Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator Gun)
weapon_crowbar         (Crowbar)
weapon_frag         (Fragmentation Grenade)
weapon_crossbow     (Crossbow)
weapon_ar2         (Overwatch Standard Issue Pulse Rifle)
weapon_bugbait         (Pherapods)
weapon_357         (357 Magnum)

(this file is in the profiles directory)

configs folder, i have my steam ID in "accessclients.ini" with a 63 after it

"bot_mods.ini", i have the following

CODE

mod = TF2
steamdir = orangebox
gamedir = tf
bot = TF2

It seems to load the plugin just fine, it seems to load your plugin fine, then, it says it's putting in the bots, it's change their classes, i can see them in "view server info"

then, after like 5 seconds or what ever, i get

CODE

"The instruction at "0x########" referenced memory at "0x#######". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program

The last lines in the console are:
