BotSpawn

What kind of idiot are you, you found the reason, it already means something)

 

Steenamaroo updated BotSpawn with a new update entry:

1.4.0

[DOUBLEPOST=1515122969][/DOUBLEPOST]

Haha, sleepy idiot.
Night folks.

 

Yeah, I did not sleep all night. It's already 6 AM)

 

Works now! Thanks!

 

Turns out a few other options wouldn't have been taking either, including roam range.
Should be good now.

 

Everything works fine, thanks)

All this came up after installing 1.4.0..........just fyi.

 

Same as here - #2168

There's been a few small patch updates, but the major update was 1.3.7
Update notes are worth a read.

 

Thank you! Even with the last couple of minor hiccups this plugin has become a very big part of my server. Thank you again for the updates as now I can finally kit them up and configure them to be proper scary and challenging.

You rock! Sent ya a lil something for your efforts! Again, Thank You

 

Yeah thank you VERY much! One of my favorite plugins

After the last few updates, a server RESET was needed, if anyone is having trouble, reset your server, load in the CS files.

Having trouble with the new kits option, guess autokit isn't allowed? Also, does anyone have some neat kit ideas that they use??

 

It seems the bots are despawning almost instantly upon death, Is not giving time to loot the body. If there is a group of 4 in the mob, the first one down is gone before the 4th drops. I have reset my despawn timer to 360 (6minutes) and it is not lasting a minute. Is there a way to add something to the JSON file to change the rate?

 

Thanks for the tip, restarted server and all good now

 

That's not something I'm altering, although I did notice corpses started disappearing very quickly a few rust updates back.
I'll see if it's something I can make user-customisable.

Pretty sure we're all good now.
Make sure you don't have a lingering out of date config/data.

Unload plug, delete both, then reload plug to be certain.

 

Haven't messed with autokit, just authlevel 0 and npconly true. As far as creative kits. Mine aren't 'all' that but I'm having fun giving them kooky outfits and decent weaponry. I run a Heavy-Mod so it allows me some freedom to overpower the bots a bit. So far it's been awesome.

Folks come in expecting Hazmat wearing , gimpy bots and now they are running into real challenges!

 

Thank you.
No, there's no support for autokits. I think it's better to stick with manually declaring them, so we can have different kits per monument and now random kits from a list.

 

I updated the bots but didn't see them appear do I have to restart server to get them to populate? They used to just show up but with this update not sure if I need to reboot before they show up after I activate them.

 

Wondering if you might include Monument Locations for Bots to spawn for HapisIsland?

Examples: Materials Extraction, Refinery, Venting Shaft, Loading Dock, Convoy's, Sight A & B......etc

 

Why would I keep getting this

Code:

(00:41:54) | Previous version of plugin failed to load: BotSpawn

It was after I modified the json, but can't find anything wrong. Is it syntax?

EDIT: I tried renaming my json and it still happens after reload.

EDIT2: Weird the .cs got screwed. I replaced it, all is well
[DOUBLEPOST=1515131468][/DOUBLEPOST]I have my accuracy set to 4 and players are suggesting that the NPCs never miss. Before the recent updates they weren't saying that. I wonder if something may be a miss (pun) here? I set it to 3 to see if they notice a change. Going to test myself.
[DOUBLEPOST=1515131945][/DOUBLEPOST]I tested and it appears the accuracy is crazy good even at 3.

 

i have done some testing and it seams if you change the config and reload the .cs file gets messed up and you have to re downlaod it and its fine after that. my question is did you do something with the damage and accuracy? becasue even with them on 1 and 0.1 the bots are wrecking me and my m8s with only a few bullets..

 

Ok so it's not just me.

I'm even having issues removing them. I'm getting shot by bots I can't even find lol Is there a way to purge them? A command for that would be great.

EDIT: I set the suicide timer down and set activate to false for each.
