[TF2] Bot Manager
 

[TF2] Bot Manager

Description:
Mimics the functionality of tf_bot_quota "fill" but allows for plugins to hook into the bot adding/kicking processes. Also extends the default functionality of tf_bot_quota "fill" and customizes the join/part messages to be more clear.

Cvars:

• bot_manager_version - plugin version
• bot_manager_auto_update - enables automatic updating (has no effect if Updater is not installed)
• sm_bot_quota - number of players to keep in the server, use this instead of tf_bot_quota
• sm_bot_join_after_player - if nonzero, bots will wait until a player joins before entering the game, use this instead of tf_bot_join_after_player
• sm_bot_game_logic - 0 = use plugin logic when assigning bots, 1 = use game logic
• sm_bot_supported_map - if nonzero, bots will only be present on maps that have nav files
• sm_bot_on_team_only - if nonzero, players will only be considered "in-game" if they're on a team for purposes of assigning bots

Installation:
Put botmanager.smx into /addons/sourcemod/plugins, and reboot your server or type "sm plugins load botmanager" into your console or rcon.

Auto Update:
Install Updater. The plugin will be auto-updated according to your Updater settings. It'll work without Updater.

Changelog:

• v1.3.0 (7/14/20)
  • Added support for TF2 Classic
• v1.2.0 (11/22/13)
  • Added some randomization to choosing which bot to kick
• v1.1.0 (7/7/13)
  • Added plugin library registration

Bot Names
Allows for custom bot names. Create a text file under addons/sourcemod/configs/botnames.ini and put your names in there, one per line. Comments can be denoted with a semicolon (;).

You should have at least as many names as your server will have bots, ideally more.

Re: [TF2] Bot Manager

Re: [TF2] Bot Manager
 

Released a Bot Names module.

Re: [TF2] Bot Manager
 

can you elaborate on whath that means? what is unclear about Bot disconnect and Bot connect messages the standard way? thanks

Re: [TF2] Bot Manager
 

It basically replicates tf_bot_quota fill. sm_bot_supported_map and sm_bot_on_team_only are additions that the vanilla game doesn't have.

Normal bot join messages look like this:

Player Aimbot has joined the game
Player Aimbot has joined team RED

Bot Manager join messages look like this:

BOT Aimbot has joined the game

@Mckay:

Wonderfull that you gave it a names module. Will use this ad for sure.

BOT joined ad is also great....

mmmmmm maybe i am asking something really bizar here. But can you maybe write a module for your plugin.

- Bot module : weapons
- Bot module : hats

I know that they ar out there these plugins but for me sadly they dont work 100%...

If i have more ideas i ll post them keep up your goodworks on this plugin.

Re: [TF2] Bot Manager
 

Weapon and hat modules are outside the scope of this plugin. This only manages joining/disconnecting.
