cant you just make the surrounding nodes duck nodes?

Then you could put bots in Stock Maps
This is theoretically possible but I'm a little (=very) worried about the CPU requirements for in-script pathfinding....

The best bots for other games always have hand made waypoints. Although mybe one day jv will make a path adding or building system like used in podbot for cs. While in game you go to a waypoint mode and you bind keys so as you run around you set waypoints and then you select special ones from a list. Mybe something could be made a script written that adds the nodes via the player in game.
That sounds ridiculously hard, it would be better if jv finnished his single player level.

Nope. But I have a sneaking suspicion that jv is on top of the situation... For I have seen the light brothers and sisters! I have seen little bots crawling where no bot has crawled before!
Amen brothers and sisters!
Haleluja!

I've already made a 'compiler script' that does this for you. You can just relax and lay back while your pc is working hard to make a pathnode grid

In the new version it is necessary to make so that when you look on bots it was possible see his name for example [BoT]BradWurst, and also when someone from boats killed should displayed the message, for example [BoT]Brad Wurst was killed by Alex's SMG. As with real players!

it's possible, but it wont work when a bot kills a player.
look out for v2, there's the botscore coming out.
