Whenever I used to play single player or a LAN game, I was always annoyed that the bots wouldn't pick up Pipe Bombs and Molotovs. I wouldn't expect the bots to use the Molotov/PipeBomb because if they did the game would be much easier, but at least they should be able to pick up Molotov/PipeBomb and give it to a human player the same way they grab and give you pills.
This plugin does what I think should have been part of the game in the first place, but you took it steps further than that. Thank you Silvers for that
I installed it in my L4D1 server (I also use it for single player & LAN games but with different configurations).
One suggestion, the default setting for l4d_gear_transfer_timer should be a bit higher like 3 or 4 instead of 1 because if you are playing with all bots and you are in an area with multiple Molotovs and/or PipeBombs, trying to transfer that gear to them can be tricky because they will usually give it right back to you before you have the chance to pick up another one (unless you run away as soon as you do the transfer, but in enclosed places that won't work). I have mine set to 4 and that gives the right amount of time to pick up and transfer multiple items.
The settings work as intended in the cfg file. Bots picking up nearby items works great. The auto grabbing, auto giving, and transfers of Molotovs, PipeBombs, pills, and first aids kits works perfectly.
They only issue I have is that if I enable the transfer of first aid kits, but disable the bots from being able to give first aid kits, they still are able to transfer the kits to a player. Here's the setting I have:
Code:
// 0=Off, 1=Enables. Make bots give their items to players with none.
// -
// Default: "1"
l4d_gear_transfer_auto_give "1"
// 0=Off, 1=Enables the transfer of first aid kits.
// -
// Default: "1"
l4d_gear_transfer_allow_fir "0"
// 0=Off, 1=Both, 2=Bots can give, 3=Bots can grab first aid kits.
// -
// Default: "1"
l4d_gear_transfer_bot_fir "3"
With those settings, the bots
shouldn't be able to transfer first aid kits to players, but they still can and do so anyway. I tried values of 0, 1, 2, and 3 but they all have the
function of "1", meaning bots can grab & give first aid kits on
every setting. The only way around this was to disable the transfer of first aid kits, but I don't want to do that. I want the ability to transfer first aid kits to remain, but I don't want the bots giving me theirs automatically when I don't have one.
Settings for
l4d_gear_transfer_bot_mol
l4d_gear_transfer_bot_pil
l4d_gear_transfer_bot_pip
with values of:
0=Off, 1=Both, 2=Bots can give, 3=Bots can grab molotovs/pain pills/pipe bomb
all work with a value intended for the specific function perfectly fine though. So 0 turns it off, 1 let's bots give & grab, 2 let's bots give, and 3 let's bots grab. But when it comes to the first aid kits, 0 let's bots give & grab, 1 let's bots give & grab, 2 let's bots give & grab, and 3 let's bots give & grab.
Can you please correct that in the plugin when you get the chance and thanks again.
