Limit one bot's movement

Did a search and found nothing so...here I go.
I want to limit one bot's movement. I'm making an assassination obj map and didn't want my "target" to move around too much, just stay where he is w/ just some variations (maybe he can go to a room)...
Any ideas?

use SP AI, have him in an area (#area 1 for instance) after spawn.

Do you know how to use SP AI in a MP map?

sure, put
exec global/ai.scr
before your level waittill prespawn in your script and put in your AI, fling in the pathnodes, and boom, you've got it.

The global/ai.scr is mainly for makeing enemyspawners and spawning them . It can be used to spawn bots too if you give the bot a targetname of enemyspawner . What you need to do is spawn a bot not a normal ai . The bots are just normal ai's with the animations enabled and useing the targetname of alliesspawnpreset for a allies bot and axisspawnpreset for a axis bot and useing the bot script you have a bot so by not useing that targetname the bot won't be used by the bot script and you can have him do as you like . You will of course have to tell him what to do since he is no longer a "bot" .

Nice try, how many times do you think I did this? Don't work, m8.
Nuggets have a modified new_generic_human.tik that makes SP AI work on MP, problem is that axis Ai shoots at you even if you join as axis...
My idea is to "place" (not spawn) a bot and give him a targetname, problem is to keep him in the same area...

Nope won't work with jv_bots
If you want only this single bot then probably do as bdb said, use simple ai by placing a bot tiki in the map. Also exec the bot scripts but set the number of bots to 0, that will stop your ai from shooting spectators
