CT bots not defusing (happens randomly)

[Joker23]

I have been playing a lot of CSS lately against bots. Something I noticed, and it just happened again, is that in some rounds, the CT bots will NOT defuse the bomb. They all freeze in place as soon as the bomb is placed by the Ts.

This seems to only happen when I am on the CT team and I die before the bomb is placed.

I do not have the option selected for bots to defer goals to humans, and it doesn't always happen.

When it does happen, it's annoying AF because I know if I die before the bomb is placed, the Ts pretty much win by default.

Is this a known bug, or am I just lucky?

I was just able to reproduce this. I started a map of de_train, chose CT team, died during the pistol match (on purpose) and when the Ts placed the bomb, all of the CTs froze in place. SMH.

...just use these:

bot_defer_to_human 0
bot_allow_rogues 0

Next time I see it, I'll do that.

Thanks!

...you're welcome but these are not the commands, these are the cvars (console variables) which you're supposed to add to your "autoexec.cfg" file or use as a launch parameters according to the example:

-novid +con_enable 1 +bot_defer_to_human 0 +bot_allow_rogues 0

...then the unwanted bots' behaviour should never happen again.

Got it, thanks again!

...there's a typo - it should be con_enable 1 there but it's not related to your case, it just enables the developer console.

After playing for a while, I found that this only happens on map de_train. I guess I hadn't realized that when I posted this topic.

I have not seen this on any other map. It just happened again. The Ts planted the bomb at B, I ran in by myself, killed two Ts then died, and every other CT just stood frozen to the spot they were at, none made any attempt to move.

...try bot_auto_follow 0 and maybe increase their difficulty. If that won't help then there's a bug in the map.

It happens frequently on de_train. I have never encountered this bug on other maps. Unfortunately, the easiest solution is to not play de_train.

At least it's not just me...

Thanks!

also happened to me, thanks for the answer

...has it a ticket for the official bug yet?
