    if(Id < IntMaxUserid)

    {

        ... connection from previous map

    }

}

i don't know if the bot has some userid, but this is an idea. You should find a signature and use in gamedata (if exists) for connections from previous maps. If the players keep their userid on map change i think there should be a signature for this.

I doubt bots having user ids, because I can't recall an event giving user id of a bot, but I don't care about bots.

All events should pass a userid for all bots which are clients, including SI bots and tanks. If you want to specifically get a bots userid either do IsFakeClient(client) within the event for just bots or use bot_replace_player or player_replace_bot events to get the bots userid specifically. I've yet to not see a bot trigger an event, but who knows.

PHP Code:


			
stock bool IsClientNew(int client)

{

    return IsFakeClient(client) || GetGameTime() > GetClientTime(client);

}
