SurvivorBot+

Description
SurvivorBot+ is a complete set of cvars that only made changes to survivor bots, and nothing else.
My goal is to improve upon the survivor bot problems that hinders regular gameplay while staying true to the vanilla

- Campaigns no longer reset when all players are dead & will be continued on by bots [SCAVENGE EXCLUDED].
- Slightly readjusted bot reaction speed to act responsively
- [REALISM] Bots will try not to shoot through other survivors, friendly fire is enabled
- Bots now wield melee & will not exceed max amount of present melee users (2 survivors max)

And more to come (if I have any plans..)
For those who wants to make an edit or their own bots, I left something for you in the addon itself ;)
Have fun!

FOR MODDERS NOTE:
- Bot leading has been disabled. (Bots don't perform well both on custom & official campaign)
- Escort has been disabled. (Not sure what it does, if anybody know what it does, please do tell me)
- Side-stepping has been disabled. (Causes issues when fighting specials)
- Melee victim approach as been disabled. (Causes issues when fighting a tank)

bot no AI behaviour when battling with tank?

can you make it so bots never use their first aid? or at least a command to toggle it on and off

Another base game problem, the only way to circumvent the pipebomb issue is with vscript / plugins. TL;DR: can't be done normally.
This addon should help in a way or two with that; https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2279814689

If you want to combine this script & the supplementary addon above, follow these step;

1. Find your left4bots cfg folder (Steam\steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\ems\left4bots\cfg); if it's not there, load up a campaign first and it'll automatically make one for you.
2. Edit settings.txt and find "load_convars", set it to 0
3. Save your newly edited settings and you should be done, have both addons enabled and it will work seamlessly

On another note I have began to experiment the bots again so I may or may not find a way to circle around these issues hopefully, but I know it might not do much
