how do I add more bots in L4D2

[Kenji]

I keep seeing videos of people having like 10 bots in one singleplayer game, I want to know how

[**DeiRowtag]

Admin system from workshop maybe


Sourcemod dedicated server for sure can do

Chances are the people making those videos, probably aren't very good at the game itself because having that many bots then you might as well just be asleep and let the game play itself.

Or they are just having fun and reveling in the chaos of it all. Stop being a preemptive hater.

Trust me. You'll get bored very soon when there are too many bots around you, as game will become too easy & you'll get almost no chance to kill zombies, & also special infected get bullied by bots just before they can do anything on a survivor.

You can try "United We Stand" mutation mod if it's just 7 bots to accompany you.

There's nothing fun or chaotic of having ten bots at any given time, if anything you probably break the director because it tracks the stress levels of ALL the survivors and reacts accordingly to whoever has the lowest out of the FOUR.

One way to absolutely do this, is to use sourcemod on your local or dedicated server. Here is the actual plugin that I use on my server and it works flawlessly. You can also turn up the special spawn on your server at this point to make it more challenging with the extra bots if you want. That's a separate plugin though. Anyway, here is the sourcemod plugin.

If you have trouble installing sourcemod, feel free to ask for help.

Good luck.

This game is 15 years old dude. Get a grip on yourself lol. Imagine calling people out on a game this old that has no progression and is free to mod without ruining anyone's day unwillingly.

Ridiculous to even have to explain that, but if they *really* want to balance it with all the bots you know there's also mods/commands to up the common health, spawn rate, etc. right? Nice try.

There's mods for it. I didn't remember what the name is but it doesn't involve administration thingie as you can just simply subscribe and go for it. The catches? Considering it was 2019 at the time, the mods might been outdated now and being weird or just crash on you. Might save yourself the trouble by finding mods that make the bots little more tolerable than adding more trouble on the plate.

Because if any 1 out of 10 bot is down, EVERY bots will abandon you to save those downed teammate and that's problematic when you want to rush to rescue at finale considering you have to wait those 10 bots instead of 4 to enter the rescue zone or else the campaign won't end.
