To those who don't know me, I used to help teh Cheeseh way back when RCBots first came out for NS (aka kwikloader). Right now, I am setting up the Duel of the Bots so this necessitates my return to RCBotdom. Also, I have "rcbot addbot 1" in my server.cfg to (hopefully) add a bot to marine team only, but instead it adds TWO bots, one to each team. Help ?!?!? Thirdly, as some maps don't have rcbot waypoints I would desire no bots join while said maps are playing. How do I do this? PLEASE don't tell me I have to create a map.cfg for EVERY map!

As you can guess, here is where you have all your map spacific config files. And yes, you will have to make some. As for waypoints, ask and you shall recieve. Or you can make them yourself if you remember how.

Ok, will create them then.

In preparation for the "Duel" I have somewhat tweaked the bot profile. Please let me know what I can change to further improve accuracy.

CODE

favmod=1
favteam=1
skill=100
aim_skill=1.0
aim_time=0.0
aim_speed=18.0
spray="8ball1"
gorge_percent=0

numgames=0
hal_pretrain_file="common_hal.trn"
hal_aux_file="common_hal.aux"

I don't want RCBots on every map in my mapcycle, and I darn sure dont want to have to create 50 plus map configs to prevent it. Why can't this be coded so that no bots will join if there's no waypoints for that map? === edit ===Why won't the bots upgrade weapons in Combat if I have hmg priority at 5 and lmg priority at 1? Enclosed find 1 tabshot from a test (rcbots tweaked by lordskitch) Attached image(s)

My guess is that rcbot was not truely designed for dedicated server usage, mainly only intended for LAN games. Why cheeseh never used a check for waypoint method, only he can answer.

Ummmm, I don't know why your having this problem because rcbots are upgrading agressively in beta4a combat. Although, rcbot marines are far more devistating then there alien counter-parts.

Why would anyone choose using a welder over a shotgun for attacking live enemy targets? Seems kinda pointless to me. Now unless I am mistaken, the lower the priority = the higher the desire to use that weapon? Please correct me if I am wrong.

LordSkitch sugegst I check my version number, and low and behold, I failed to install the latest. I simply changed the dlls and fired it up, and all is well now, TO well actually. Thanks for your help thus far.

I cuddle with my bots.

Lerks are like the most feared class on my server now

Only problem is that my connection is only good for maybe 15 hltv spectators. I could record a demo if that is do-able? You would just need a good host to distribute the demo.

It's about as interective as if you were actually connected to the server. At least that is what I remembered from my STA days with clan Torque. But then again, that was TFC and on WON, not steam. Anyway, the offer still stands. I can record an HLTV demo for you given that you provide a time, IP addy and a slot for HLTV. That's if you can't find anything better.
