New bots

[{EXILE}™GuitarSlayer]

Has anyone got these bots to auto spawn on your server yet?
hl2mp_bot_join_after_player 1
hl2mp_bot_quota_mode fill
hl2mp_bot_quota 4

There is a cfg file in your cfg folder called "autumnbot.cfg". in that file is

sv_cheats 1
echo "nb_debug behavior"
nb_debug look
hl2mp_bot_gravgun_only 0
hl2mp_bot_ignore_real_players 0
hl2mp_bot_add 4

and in the server.cfg i added exec autumnbot.cfg
restarted server and 4 bots joined.

so what are these new bots tho?

Make a video I wouldn't mind seeing the bots in action.

In my experience they don't have any waypoints even on stock maps.

There are quite a few commands, just type hl2mp_bot and arrow key to check out all of them.

I tried this but for some reason, doing this makes it so I can see the bots through walls and see where they're looking with big colorful sight lines. Does anyone know how to turn that off?
edit: got it. it was these console commands screwing things up.
echo "nb_debug behavior"
nb_debug look
to fix, just type in "nb_debug" into console and hit enter.

No worries.

just so you know, to make bots move around on there own, the map needs to have a nav mesh. they do not use info_nodes like older bot plugins.

Majority of the cvars are ported over from TF2 and are non functional, including the quota cvars. Trying to give bot names doesnt work and corrupts their name instead.

Here are nav meshes for the base maps: https://gamebanana.com/mods/579304

..
Try this format :-
.
hl2mp_bot_add "bashing"
hl2mp_bot_add "beshing"
hl2mp_bot_add "bishing"
hl2mp_bot_add "boshing"
hl2mp_bot_add "bushing"
.
I can not find how to assign a particular model for a BOT though.
Any Idea's?
.
Thought this may work :-
nb_command "bashing ; cl_playermodel models/humans/group03/female_01.mdl"
Dosn't error but nothing changes !

wait a minute!! what bots are these???

[AYKO]

holy s..t. i didnt know that.
i'm just trying it now. there's an error message on console after adding bots with hl2mp_bot_add.

it says
HandleCommand_JoinTeam( 0 ) - invalid team index.

also bots are stuck where they spawn, like not moving at all.
also all of their names appear as Bot Name.

should i download nav meshes first?

i did a integrity verification.

this is in your game not your server, but you will create a nav file for each map , then place that nav file in your server
so in your game create a server and type in sv_cheats 1
add the amount of bots you want via hl2mp_bot_add 12 for example
type in nav_mark_walkable
type in nav_generate, it will generate a real fast nav file and your bots will act human
sv_cheats 1
nav_mark_walkable
nav_generate.

sorry for being an idiot, but i don't run any server. i just create the game and play the game with bots and should i do all of these after i downlad vanilla map nav meshes from gamebanana?
