I was just testing my luck with nsmod forum and that Extralevels tread and this I got for an answer from White Panther: "you need to ask Cheeseh i will add support if possible" So keep it in mind that Extralevels coder is backing up this idea.. It would truely be great if bots could use the extralevels

You said that yes, but Extralevels give also something more. This is from the amxx plugins thread:

ExtraLevels3 offers the following upgrades:

Marines:

Cybernetics = improves movement speed (higher level = more speed )
requirements: lvl5 / 1 point (most server use here 2 points)

Reinforced Armor = higher armor (higher level = more armor)
requirements: lvl1 / lvl3 armor / 1 point

Nano Armor = your armor welds itself (higher level = better weld)
requirements: lvl1 / reinforced armor / 1 point

Advanced Ammopack = increases clip size and reserve size ( higher level = more ammo each)
requirements: lvl1 / lvl1 armor / weapon lvl1 / resupply / 1 point

Static Field = reduces aliens HP and AP (higher level = reduces more HP + AP )
requirements: lvl1 / motion tracking / scan area / weapon lvl2 / 2 points

Uranium Ammo = increases damage for all weapons except Knife + Welder
requirements: lvl 10 / weapon lvl3 / 1 point

Aliens:

Thickened Skin = higher HP (higher level = more HP )
requirements: lvl1 / carapace + regen / 1 point

Ethereal Shift = similar to cloak but scaner wont uncloak you and 100% invisible / time based (higher level = longer shifting time )
requirements: lvl5 / cloaking / 1 point

Blood Lust = energy regenerates faster (higher level = higher regen of energy )
requirements: lvl1 / adrenaline / 1 point

Hunger = for killing u get HP + speed bonus + Primal scream / time based (higher level = more HP + speed + lasts longer
requirements: lvl1 / blood lust / 1 point

Sense of Ancients = class depending upgrade
Skulk = parasite more damage and chance to parasite nearby players
Gorge = stronger healspray
Lerk = gas damages HA (only the armor)
Fade = blink energy is reduced
Onos = devour multiple players
Gestate = more armor
requirements: lvl 10 / 1 upgrade of each upgrade chamber / 1 point

This whole thing is in thread: http://www.nsmod.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=2512&st=0

Etheral shift is not needed because it is for the cloaking. The costs are configurable so it should be somehow checked how much level is needed.

Extralevels3 is very vastly used plugin and it is constantly updated. This would be a great deal for RCBot to have available for bots to use

The extralevels buy menu comes up by saying /xmenu or xmenu and the Extralevel abilities are choosable from the menu with numbers.

This affects only combat but is extremely fun

More so on marine side but they won't get hand grendades or scan so cloaking would always be an effective upgrade for aliens.

And I don't think I would be coding the extra stuff in, not anytime soon anyway (you could think of the amount of plugins to make the bot suport, and with that the number of mods) or unless I code in REAL AI like get bots to learn "how do I get those upgrades", "well you press xyz when your level is xyz" hehe, bit difficult.
