No, I didn't do anything to stop it from working, most likely the update and I don't know what you mean by updating the server because I don't have one.
I will try to explain it with simple words.
For a multi player game (like TF2) you have to understand the client-server-concept.
You cannot start a multi player game (like TF2) without a game server.
Someone is creating a server, and other clients can join this server, to play together on the same map.
TF2 has an integrated in-game server.
When you click "Create Server" in TF2, then you are starting a local game server and you are automatically connecting to your own local server.
Although it's a local server, it is still called a server.
When TF2 gets updated, your local game server also gets updated.
RCBot2 is a plugin for this server.
So when somebody in this forum is saying "server" they are referring to your (local) "game server".
This game server can be created on your local computer, or somewhere else (it doesn't matter).
But the installation of RCBot2 is the same, for every server (local or dedicated).

I don't really understand metamod tbh and nothing about servers; I go onto create a server, cp_dustbowl and start and sometimes type commands in the console (that's what I mean by offline kinda lol)
What you are using is called an in-game server, or listen server.
Metamod also works for in-game servers.

I don't really understand all of that, I just mainly want it, so I can play solo with them, or even spectate. No big deal though I guess.
As I mentioned before, RCBot2 is a server plugin. Therefore this plugin has to be loaded first.
There are two ways to load a plugin. Via the native plugin interface of your game, or metamod.
Cheeseh is currently not updating the native plugin (which you were using).
But, Cheeseh updated the metamod plugin of RCBot2, which is working with the latest updates.
So you have to download metamod (metamod is used to load plugins).
And then you have to download the latest metamod plugin from Cheeseh.
1.) First delete your installed RCBot2 plugin.The file is called "HPB_bot2.dll" or "HPB_Bot2o.dll", search it, and delete it.
2.) Download metamod from here:http://www.metamodsource.net/mmsdrop/1.11/mmsource-1.11.0-git992-windows.zipThere is a folder in this zip called "addons". Copy this folder to
"steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf", afterwards it should look like this:
"steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\addons".
3.) Add "-console -insecure" to your launch options in Steam.Then you should see this message, in your in-game console.
QUOTE
Loading unsigned module ..\tf\addons\metamod\bin\server
Access to secure servers is disabled.
4.) Afterwards download the latest metamod plugin from Cheeseh.http://sourceforge.net/p/rcbot2/code/HEAD/tree/utils/RCBot2_meta/Debug/rcbot2meta.dll?format=raw5.) Then create a folder in your "addons" folder called "rcbot2".It should look like this "steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\addons\rcbot2".
Place the "rcbot2meta.dll" in this folder.
6.) Then go to your "addons" folder, into the subfolder "metamod".This folder "steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\addons\metamod".
Create a file called "rcbot2.vdf". Open this file with a text editor.
Write following lines into this file:
QUOTE
"Metamod Plugin"
{
"alias" "rcbot2"
"file" "addons/rcbot2/rcbot2meta"
}
7.) Then start the game, and everything should work
