Bot support

[Doomgiver]

Hi,

I want to ask, if you are going to make bot support in Renegade X. I like playing Ut3 against bots, because they are very good. Are you going to add bot support to your mod?

Well like the UT games it will be a server side option if you want to add bots into your own server. I believe you're able to command bots around and stuff, and have it that human players start replacing the bots as more people join your server.

Can I play the mod offline in Instant Action with bots acting like human players, too?

[[NE]Fobby[GEN]]

Yes.

It'd be better if you guys scripted bots to minimum, as the bots would only shoot troops, not attack or repair buildings.

Have the option sooner and cause less bug fck ups.

i.e having a bot attack a building when already dead.

Actually bots would shoot and repair buildings, because they already do that with power nodes.

Why should they make less intelligent bots than what is already in UT3, beside it would be boring to play against bots that wouldn't kill your base really, and even Renegades bots could attack buildings (though they rarely got far enough to hit them as they ran rambo into the enemy base defences)

I agree with GummiBear. It would be boring if you couldn't lose against the bots, because if I am playing against bots, I want to play against some, who behave like real players as the UT bots are doing. So the bots should behave like human players. They should purchase characters and vehicles and use them meaningful and they should attack the enemy base to destroy it and defend and repair their own base.
