Ok, thank you i try set 8 waypoints per team!
But my configuration was:

bots_enabled 1
bots_number 4
bots_maxsets 2
bots_leave 4
bots_setup 0

This should work with 4 bots?
And how much then i need waypoint per team?
8 or 4?

Thank you in advance!

Two waypoints per team really isn't enough. I would use eight only because it creates a variation in routes for each bot.
When you go into setup mode, all the spawn points for each team are highlighted with a white circle. Try to get a separate route from each group of two or three points, depending on the number of spawn points (most maps have 20, most custom maps have 16) per team.

It is time consuming, but worth it, to reduce lag and make the bots more human like and unpredictable.

First: thanks for this great plugin and extension !

While using this plugin+ext my server experience a lot of crashes, always at the same offset. I suspect crashes to be linked to bot spawning.

Hereafter the stacktrace:
0 server.so + 0x3997b4
1 server.so + 0x3d8df6
2 server.so + 0x5e2c2a
3 server.so + 0x17f5a8
4 server.so + 0x5f1ec1
5 server.so + 0x3dd6fb
6 server.so + 0x439329
7 server.so + 0x430cce
8 server.so + 0x4124df
9 server.so + 0x412d92

I hope it will help you to find the bug (if there is one) and maybe it could help me too

Will look into it.

Thanks for this plugin btw. Had it installed for a few hours til the updates came in.

Did the big updates, just the other day, break this? I know it broke dodHooks slightly on Windows servers but that's sorted now.

When anyone joins our server with this running, it bombs out now.
