Bot placement

Post by Lumpy »

When you play against the bots you have to choose fixed position.

I would like to have the bot start at a specific place

I have tried changing the team number / id number....

but we allways end up starting on points 1 and 2.

Is there a way to make the bots start at different areas?

as i cant get a team game happening etc

Yes, there is a way. When in 'choose your start position' mode, use .cheat to change to bot's team and place their start markers, then change back to your team.

Actually it is possible to place them in the lobby, just not using tasclient.

AAI plays water (mostly) fine, but you'll need the new version for that (look in the AI forum, it's there). It doesn't like water starts though, give it a piece of land to start on, and it should go water if the map allows that.
