    So far, the only bots available for NS are RCbot and WhichBot. Unfortunately, neither has been updated yet for compatibility with NS2.0 (both were made for 1.0 through 1.04)
    RCBot for NS has its website at <a href='http://rcbot.houstondod.com/' target='_blank'>http://rcbot.houstondod.com/</a> . It covers both teams, and is available in Metamod and non-metamod forms.
    WhichBot's website is at www.whichbot.com ; it covers only the alien team, but since they've focused on only one team it has been far more intelligent and teamwork-oriented. It also comes in Metamod and non-metamod forms.

    The creators of each will most likely post a big friendly thread in General Discussion to let everyone know when their bots will be compatible with 2.0.
    Until then, if you want to practice things alone by starting up an empty server, search these forums for how to enable cheats so you can give yourself enough resources to quickly and easily try out whatever buildings/weapons/evolutions you want.

    If you go digging on the WB forums, you can download BETA bots that are NS 2.0 compatible.

    Then head over to the patches section (on the WB site, not here) and download the waypoint files that have been completed.

    If you are dedicated, you can use WBs now. I do. Just don't expect too much at this point.

    The official NS2.0-compatible release of WhichBot is now <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=1&t=31861&st=105' target='_blank'>out</a>.

    they should combine RCbot's marines and WB's aliens

    all in one DLL package

    that would be sw33t

    Cheeseh is currently rewriting RCBot. When he gets done with that, I'll most likely talk to him about a combined distribution bundle like the one you describe.

    i downloaded RCBot... for the entire game my marine bot's simply circled my resource tower slashing thin air with their knife

    That's probably an older version your running, although in the later version bots still try to wave knives at breakables that they simply cant reach.. bit annoying..
