Placing Bots - Possible?

Postby Tenn » Fri Jul 14, 2006 3:20 pm

Hey guys ;)

Im thinking.. not only now... quite a longer time (in my afk-weeks) for a single player map in nexuiz. To the question: do you guys from the developement ve made it possible to place bots at a position.. without moving, so they had to wait until you walk throught them or they see you. I dont know nothing about version 2 cause I dont played itr and cant play it at the moment ( i think in a week at least i can play it, because my pc is destroyed -.- ) ...

So I thought at a map, for example in a big building, when it stars theres a wall on which is standing "Hey dude, nice to see you, now you have 5 minutes to escape from this damn place and get into freedom with your friends and your family" or something then a few hundert bots walks throught you in the building youre in and you have to shoot them, a few minutes later you get those stairs down and you are at the lobby and can get your ass of that building and thats it, then youve finished the single player map... blubb... if that bot story works, it would be possible to make a "multiplayer - story - map", so for example 5 freaky nexuiz players can play this "story-map" at one time... but they shouldnt shot each other... so... may be an idea? ( because zymnotic isnt finished now :lol: )

It's possible, because Quake does it. I'm not exactly sure how, but it shouldn't be that complex.

No, it isn't yet. Nexuiz doesn't support monsters, and its code is NOT based on Id's Quake 1 source.

However, the simplest way to do that would be abusing the Team Deathmatch mode, putting players on one team, the "monsters" on the other team. Should just need a small change (players vs bots is a feature I want to implement anyway, but it seems too risky to add it for Nexuiz 2.0.1, but perhaps for 2.1, 2.5 or whatever the next "big step" will be called)... however, both teams would still respawn then.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

That is easily fixed by the gamemode I have in my head: "multi-player arena"
the spice extend life!
the spice expand conciousness!
the spice is vital to space travel!
sooooo.. tell me what you want, waht you really-really want
I will proceed directly to the intravenous injection of hard drugs, please.

How does that work? Many one-live LMS-like games added together?

If it is that, it is already in Nexuiz...
