<div class="IPBDescription">Pathetic...</div> I got myself bots which (i thought) will be worth the downloading. But now when I see how they act I dont know what to think... (They cant get up ladders, go to the enemy base) Is there anyway to give them a brain? Or do I have to wait for a new version?

Edit: The bots that I use are RocketCrowBots 0.24 If there are any better ones tell me!

    Welcome to the forums DrVirus. May I recommend use of the search function. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    WhichBots = Great aliens, do not work as marine.
    RCBot = Pretty good, mostly naff bots which work for both teams.

    Okay. I got the wonderfull RC Bot but they dont seam to be any better. Okay they move forward, and sometimes obey orders but its not so satisfying. What command should I use so that it will be better?

    ugh, bots are horrible things and should only be given to people with no internet connection <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    it would only be around 1000 if you are going in servers on the other side of the world <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> if your on 56k and you go to servers in your state or near, you should get around 300

    Not true we have a pine of above 3000 usaually here because we are on a college campus. We can do everything but play hardcore on Steam. When we are lucky we make it into a net game.

    OMG! LAN PARTY! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    100M/bit connection in the college? Go for it!


    Anyway, make sure you add the RCBot on it's, aha, "inteligent" setting, else it is really stupid:

    (rcon) rcbot addbot [TEAM] [INTELIGENCE] [Name?]

    You only need rcon if you are using rcon. Duh. (FYI, rcon is server plugin that allows admins to run commands. Not as good as admin mod really. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->)

    I think the inteligence ranges from 1-5, 5 being inteligent, 1 being as useful as a Snooze button on a smoke alarm. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    ... using a proper node-network for the bots so they find their way makes them seem about 100 times brighter.... You are using waypoint files for your bots right?

    The bots are noobs in general, i camped a hive and knifed them for about 45 minutes til i got bored, they had only half killed me.

    I have a screenie of my console with all the lines quoting kills on bots, all but the top 2 bars are knife kills.

    Concur, it might be a good way to practice aiming, but not for playing <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Well the bot i hate is PODbot. I get rediculously high ratios against em and they get so owned, but what annoys me is the bugs in the cs bot...

    1- They ALWAYS hit you with shotgun, and a rratio of about 60% is to the head, test it urself.
    2- They tend to shoot you through thin walls.
    3- If they see you or you dont kill em as soon as you see them, they always bs-hs you.

    But it doesnt matter, coz they suck at range. it is their weakness.

    Enough on that, for ns the game is just to complicated to expect bots to be created for it unofficially. It's a job only Flayra could do, but he is hands-full at the moment starting a company, so the chances of him doing it are....

    Wait, there are no chances... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    IMO RcBot are very good bots, correctly waypointed they put up a good fight.

    Try it, rcbot.net link and my personal waypoints on www.bostream.nu/asa

    Cheeseh is still improving RcBot and you can try their resistance on my parttime server "theBotServer of LG" which runs mainly nighttime Central Europe.

    Well, you should know. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I think I have your older version. The bots there range from 1-5. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    There is a ladder on Veil. Bottom-middle hive, leave it from the left entrance. Along there somewhere. I cant remember offhand without an overview. Still, it is a very sloped ladderless map.

    Long live onos friendly maps! May ns_nancy burn! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
