As my title would imply, is there any way to make it so the RCBots can't join the alien team?

That's how I've got it set up now, but after the maps and whatnot are over, they won't auto team. Seein' as how the marines lose quickly without a human commander, I need the RCbots to only join marine, and the WBots to join the alien team all over again. Do I see a
CODE
rcbot config bots_only_join_marine 1
setting in the future? biggrin.gif

Yes and here is how to do it.

Go to your rcbot/map_config/mod-of-choise folder ( in this case, we are using ns ) and create map spacific configs for each map your going to play. If your using ns 3.0 beta, the folder name will be nsp.

example:
ns_bast.cfg
ns_eclipse.cfg
ns_nothing.cfg

You get the idea so far?

Next, edit your map spacific configs so they contain the rcbot commands you want used on each map. In this paticular situation, we want 5 rcbot marines and no rcbot aliens. Your map config would look something like this:

CODE

#Marine team
rcbot addbot 1
rcbot addbot 1
rcbot addbot 1
rcbot addbot 1
rcbot addbot 1

#Alien team
#rcbot addbot 2

#Random team
#rcbot addbot

#If also using whichbot
#wb balance on


Anything on the same line following the # symble is ignored by the HL engine and there-for, will not be used.

Will it execute that CFG file at the start of each round in the map?

Rcbot will execute each .cfg that matches the name of the map loading at the start of every map that has one. If the round is completed before the timelimit has been reached then the last known bot placements will apply. So yes. Even after round restart, the bots should rejoin the same teams they were last on.
