I've seen them picking up my mines from the field, and hopping over the laserbombs.
They also seem to take cover sometimes.
How smart are these?!

Really, they have done that? Never seen them do that myself, but I'll take your word for it.

I actually had this bot who knew that the minigun had a lot of recoil, and he crouched whenever he shot it, and it always worked. I've also seen them spray unignited fuel at perfect choking spots.

But speaking of the WORST AI, the Goopgod Cult Refugium map makes all my bots stuck, and I have to pop their heads all the time.

The RS maps have slightly buggy AI pathing too, usually around the doors, laddders and hatches, but I guess that's pretty much unavoidable unless you path the bots to avoid them completely.

Yeah, which is totally useless, if you want fair play.

Yeah. . .But bots standing still in the open without cover isn't really fair play either. Though it is good sniper practice.

Or rain a hail of AM67 or minigun fire on them. Or my favorite, alt fire with the G5, and blast them to heck.

Tell me, isn't the G5 plenty of fun when reloading is disabled?

Loads of fun. :p

Though not as fun as dual wielding miniguns with all stats and TweakTool settings set to max. 8)

Yes, at full capacity you will get 8 shots I think.

Sounds awesome, gotta try Ballistic Arena with that.

yeaah...

lets get to topic about bots AI? xD

I've made my own map, placed a starting point, some pathnodes and an Udamage charger. I went into it, placed some mines, laserbombs and other boobytraps, spectated a bot getting blown to pieces by all of them. It was like he didnt saw them.

But I guess that is becuase I made the most crappy map for bots. And I think the bots use Defence points and stuff to place their mines and watch out for. Ive really seen a bot crawling towards the flag, picking up a mine I placed there, and he ran off with the flag.

What a smart bot.

I'd call it a smart bot if he'd put a mine into the flag base before running away with the flag.

They do place mines at smart spots.

Ive seen them placing mines at pickup bases alot of times.

My bots are weapon smart I think.....

None of them place efficient traps (except in sniper spots, and then they spam the place with FP9's and BX5s at the same time), but they all can account for BW recoil. Infact, I think I saw a G5 actually being guided by the bot once to kill me. Either that or I just saw some horrid lighting on the level I was on...

My bots know how to use G5's effectively: suicide yourself to kill your enemy. At point blank range...

Hmm, i seem to use that in desperate situations when living is deemed inconsequential. 8)

Same here, and I never see them until their explosion and my death arrives. !mistrust

The bots are also smart enough to know when to take out their melee weapons and hack you to pieces. This bot got to close to me, and we both took out katanas at the same time and the bot was pretty good at it.

Yeah their melee is good but not if you have a M290 in your hands 8)

Author:  Bjossi [ Sun Mar 25, 2007 1:28 pm ]
Post subject:  BW bots are smart...

The M290 is gonna be painful for anyone who is too close to the barrels. 8)

How do you disable reloading(and dual wield miniguns)?

There's an option to disable it. Add Ballistic Weapons to your mutator group, and open the Config window and then the BW config window. It should be on the 1st tab. Just read through all of the options ti you find it.

As for dual wielding anything that's not a Pistol or SMG, good luck. Though, there may be a 3rd party akimbo (as it is known for simple dual wielding) mutator, as I remember a screenshot before BW 2.0 of someone with two Skirth Rifles.

There is a mutator that can dualwield any weapons, both official and custom ones are supported.
