Setting up a server using Jumbots
Figured out how to get the jumbots to work in a game of hl. I'm using the extension -game jumbot in my desktop shortcut. Okay, so now I can play a game against some bots, but I'm not online.
How can I start a server online, and get the bots to join at the same time?
Using the -game jumbot command makes the server unable to go online, it starts a local server only.

Just set launch options, instead of making a shortcut.

The mod should be in steam library

Would it be possible for you to explain how I would do that?
Where can I set those launch options, and what would they look like?

Go to library, right click half life, go to properties and you'll see a bar. It says "set launch options" or something among those lines. Add -game Jumbot and it should work. You can do it with any mod. If you want to try another mod with that technique just simply add -game (folder name).

I followed your instructions to the note, and started a server....yes, there my bots were, but no Internet connection. Exactly the same as using the shortcut I had earlier, only local server.
It's not that big a deal, just thought it could be fun to try it out, getting a server online. Thought it would make it a bit easier to get players to join if there were some bot already on the server.

Oh, you want people in your server with bots in it too? Honestly, i have no idea how and i'm very positive it doesn't require Jumbot mod.
