Bots in PB2?
« on: May 30, 2004, 07:16:55 PM »
Hi guys,


First and foremost, thanks for providing an alternative to standard Q2. Enjoy it though I do, sometimes I'm just more in the mood for something active, but less lethal - and paintball's just the thing. You guys are da men.

I have two questions:

1) Are standard Q2 bots (ie eraser) compatible, and if not, how do we play with bots?

2)  Is PB2 compatible with newer Q2 engines like Q2 Evolved? Just nosy.

1) Type "sv addbot" at the console.  You can specify bot names if you want, but it doesn't make a difference.  To remove them, use "sv removebot all" or give a specific bot name.  They're pretty stupid right now -- based off the ACEBot code.  They don't do much besides run around and shoot so far.  That will change eventually.

2) PB2 has its own enhanced Q2 client now.  It's actually a standalone game -- not quite done, but you can download the alpha builds and they play fine.  It should work with other engines, but will lack the paintball2-specific added features that the standalone client has.
