Bots 2 Beta Released!

lizardkid · Post by **lizardkid** » Sat May 01, 2004 8:28 pm

yeah, good idea Blue, be a lot more fun and probably around the same time frame.....

bots that bash? *shivers* think of it, panzershrecker runs out of ammo and charges at nearest living thing....

and they do run out of ammo as well...

i have another complaint about the rocketeers, they never reload, they fire off a rocket, replace their stance, fire again, they get about 6 rockets in 5 seconds!!! if even that. i like being able to be forewarned about the rockets shooting and be able to get away from it....

Wow, I just played it for only 5 mins, but in that 5 minutes I was blown away (figuratively and literally

) by the human-like qualities of the bots. If I hadn't been playing by myself, it would be hard to distinquish bots from humans. The one main thing would be the fact the bots don't stand still and shoot and they are more un-predictiable. Like there was a bot strafing back and forth with a smg and not very predictable, now I don't know if the paths they take are un-predictable, as I only played for about 5 minutes...

Good job!

This is coool

One problem tho....I put it on my server and when I load it the server shuts down?

It worked fine when I ran it and played it on the same pc.

Ill try it again and see if I can get an error report.

Ok got it.....it said "ERROR Command Overflow" or somthing like that. There might be more to it but that was the last thing before the server shut down.

so when will you impart the magical wisdom of Bots 2 SDK to us mortals oh high and supreme scripter jv_map?

Post by **jv_map** » Sun May 02, 2004 8:47 pm

Oh well I think I'd better work on the final first, 'cause I'm due to change the ways to add bots a dozen times before I'm happy about the convenience and flexibility anyway

Just because i didn't see it mentioned anywhere yet...

Weapons are sometimes behaving very strange in the hands of the bots. ie. weird angles, twitching and such...

Yes, looked like a 90 degree rotation at reload...

How can a problem just go away? Somthing has to be changed to fix it. This needs to be addressed or it could cause more problems in the future.

Right?

sometimes the computer has variables stackedweirdly at first and a restart clears the stack and RAM.thus making operations completely different with each go.

lol, wasn't what i meant to sound like, but it's true, sometimes programs don't clean up after themselves very well. but it's nearly impossible to duplicate a program twice because you're bound to have run something else in the meantime.

Wow, very nice Jv_map. Where do you get all this time?
