Title: moding?
Post by: McDuck on December 27, 2005, 07:46:19 PM: heya i am a non registered member & ive been working on a private mod for my cousin who likes the game but has to much lag so i have been trying to make a single player mod 4 him to mess around with
& i have made a extra menu named multiplay
(i had to remake all of the origanal icons 4 menu didint look good wiht my new 1)
and i was wondering how to make a text box to type in say 6 and when you play there are 6 AIbots

The problem is, it saves the bots in a file, so they stay across map changes, but they also stay in after you quit and restart the game. If you had it set to add 6 bots, quit, then restarted the game, it would add 6 more, so then you'd have 12...

To be honest, the bots aren't really ready for public use yet. They're just there.

widget
   yrel 16
   halign center
   type text
   text " Bots "
   command "menu admin_bots"

and make a new file called admin_bots.txt

paste this in

pb2menu 1

background menu_bg_ingame

widget
   xcent 0
   ycent -28
   halign center
   type field
   cvar bot_add_name
   width 10
   text ""

widget
   yrel 16
   halign center
   type text
   text " Add Bot "
   command "cmd addbot $bot_add_name"

widget
   type field
   yrel 16
   halign center
   cvar bot_rem_name
   width 10
   text ""

widget
   yrel 16
   halign center
   type text
   text " Remove Bot "
   command "cmd removebot $bot_rem_name"

widget
   yrel 16
