Bots won't chat with v1.441 Beta (Linux) Options

[junktext]

Hi,

I'm having problems trying to make the bots "chat" during gameplay. I have tried searching through the forums already, and I've already tried the suggestion from the older "Sven Coop" thread in which you suggest to insert more sentences in the "Idle" portion of the document. Down below, you'll see my "common_hal.trn" file contents, and I just used the sentences I made and threw them into that "Idle" part with no luck!

I am running Linux with the 1.441 Beta version of RCBot (and Metamod), and I believe I have set all the CVARs correctly to enable this (but apparently not)...

Here is what my "bot_config.ini" file looks like:

CODE

config commanding 1
config wait_for_orders 0
config dont_shoot 0
config chatting 1
config real_mode 0
config max_bots 3
config min_bots 0
config gorge_amount 0.8
config update_ladder_time 1.0
# max path revs, the lower the setting
# the better CPU performance in the
# path finding algorithm, but it takes
# longer to find paths.
config max_path_revs 150
# update vision revs, time to update what
# the bot can see, as it is quite cpu
# intensive you can change these values
# depending on cpu speed.
config max_update_vision_revs 150
config update_vision_time 0.07
# dont reserve bot slots
config reserve_bot_slots 0
# bots old chat chance
config chat_percent 100
# bots reply chat chance using megahal
config chat_reply_percent 40
# keep bots learning their chatting skills
config chat_dont_learn 1
# bots try to balance teams
config balance_teams 1
# build ip at NS start
config marine_auto_build 1
# reply to bots too
config chat_reply_to_bots 1
# allow bot cam (may run slightly slower)
# (needs to work out stuff in game)
config allow_botcam 0
config disable_bot_squads 1
config bot_stuck_speed 7

*** As you'll notice I'm using some high percentages for the chatter, but it doesn't seem to do anything for me...

Also, I created my own "common_hal.trn" file, and had also erased all of the original bot profile ".brn" files (i.e., 1_hal.brn) to have a fresh start for their vocabulary (since they just recreate their own ".brn" file on a clean server restart). I assume this is the normal procedure to follow when changing up the main "common_hal.trn" file, but I may be mistaken (so correct me if I am wrong here, as maybe this is my root problem).

Lastly, if you're curious, here is a portion of my latest and greatest "common_hal.trn" file (so you can inform me if you see any problems):
