hi ppl... where do you get bots that u can play offline games against? iv heard of them a bit, and i know there stupid, but it's better than sitting infront of my comp with nothing happening (lol)
RCBots you can get <a href='http://www.rcbot.net/' target='_blank'>here</a> and Whichbots are available <a href='http://whichbot.com/' target='_blank'>here</a>. There are several good topics on bots in these forums, so rummage through em before you ask anymore. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> (I happen to run BOTH on my server 66.177.40.168:27014 Depot's Nutz NS 2.01 FINAL)

Don't you have that problem where 4/4 bots sit and slowly turn around? This happened with 4 RCBots, and the game couldn't start.. the marine bots didn't build an IP or anything

My server has 1 bot (Whichbot preferred, but all NS maps aren't waypointed for Whichbot so sometimes it's RCBot) join aliens, and I have the ability to add as many bots as needed during the course of the game.
nm iv done it now... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

They could "command" anyway, the "bots" could have "commanded" the way they did in older versions when they went in the command console without needing to, becuase it's just the bot program making a new entity anywhere it wants.
well... im in serious need of help here... iv tried to install the whichbot's, rcbots metamods and all that stuff, and sadly to no luck. im running it on a home computer. is that ok?

REPLY SOMEONE! PLEEEEEEEASE!<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> Yes it's ok to install it on a home pc. I recommend, after starting the game, typing "meta list" in the console to see which plugins are operational. This may be typed in the console of the HLDS or in the console of HLSW or whatever you may be using. Once you've typed meta list, copy what it says and paste it here as a reply. Then we can determine more...... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
