RCBot for Svencoop 5 (Angelscript)

This version of RCBot has been created from scratch with some code converted from RCBot1 and inspired by RCBot2 code. It uses the built in plugin system "AngelScript" that comes with Svencoop 5.

instructions and download here:

https://github.com/rcbotCheeseh/RCBotSven5

Usage
just download all files (Download/Clone as zip) extract into the BotManager directory in scripts/plugins. (overwrite) The files will overwrite the current "Bot" scripts as it was based on the sample.

Features
Bots can run around / shoot enemies, pick up ammo/health/weapons/armor, use health/HEV chargers, use teleports, take cover, press buttons (at objective points -- not tested), shoot breakables (not tested). (i.e. its a work in progress).
Bots CAN'T use ladders yet, or secondary fire, or use grapple etc yet or other fancy stuff.

Commands:

CODE

addbot            Adds a new bot
waypoint_off        Display waypoints off
waypoint_on        Displays waypoints on
waypoint_add        Adds a new waypoint
waypoint_delete        Adds a new waypoint
waypoint_load        Loads waypoints

<to add - notouch (needed for waypointing)>

all commands accessible via command "as_command rcbot.<command>" e.g. "as_command rcbot.addbot"

DEBUGGING

if you run into trouble (usually becuase of a nightly build) find the problem by first using the commands

CODE

developer 1
as_log_level 2
as_reloadplugins

note down any errors and report them

I'm needing waypoints redone These are now "rcwa" files in a different format. I made a program to convert rcbot1 waypoints to these. Downloadable here:

Cool to see RCBot active again

I tested it on Windows and seemed to work just fine but on linux the bots crash the server almost immediately. I ran with developer 2 and got this:

CODE

SUB_Remove called on entity with health > 0
L 10/11/2018 - 08:14:02: FATAL ERROR (shutting down): NUM_FOR_EDICT: bad pointer
FATAL ERROR (shutting down): NUM_FOR_EDICT: bad pointer

Any idea what could be causing this?

Try to run with "as_log_level 3" and developer 2 then if it happens again check the latest log in svencoop/logs

Cant get anything but the bad pointer error in the logs. Nothing in angelscript logs either. Also seems like the SUB_removed line was a one time thing only and not the problem.

Well those BAD POINTER crashes appear to occur a lot in Osprey map, but some other maps maybe affected by that crash.

Tried hplanet, sc_another and osprey. I get bad pointers in all of them in under a minute.
