How to command the bots?
« on: February 02, 2013, 07:48:43 am »
Now, before you all jump to conclusions, I am not talking about commander mode here.

For the last two weeks I've been spending countless hours trying to figure out how NW bots work... Or rather, wasting countless hours, since I could barely make any progress at all.

I figured that you can actually take command of server-provided bots in certain game modes (siege and conquest, for instance), but I still can't figure out how to set a few parameters.

I'm pretty much trying to lock the bots into only spawning as line infantry, while keeping the commanding enabled in TDM mode. However, it seems to be impossible to do this via the admin panel...

Anyone knows how to deal with this problem?

Is it just me or are people getting less and less friendly?

If i was a newbie to the whole game and came onto the forum and saw replies like the one above, i would never come back here again

Yeah, never heard of being able to command bots in any mode other than Commander Battle.

It IS possible. I've seen people doing it. Just look at the 15th Humans vs Bots server. If you join the bots' team, you get to command them.

So true, I hope they'll all just get permabanned at some point.

Anyway, I think you can control bots at; Commanderbattle & siege.... Atleast thats the ones I know about. And all those spawns, they're un-predictable. I can't tell you anything about that. I want them to spawn as footguard, and they'll come as lancers.......  :-\
