Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
Are you running as a dedicated server or a LAN game?
Podbot menu is not availible on a dedicated server.
You have to use the pb comamnds.

If you are on a LAN and you don't get the podbot menu go to the console and type
podbotmenu <enter>
get out of the console.
If you have it on the screen now you have a problem
with the bind.
Try bind "x" "podbotmenu"
and see if x now works.

If you don't get the menu after typing podbotmenu directly in the console, podbot is not installed correctly
and is not running.

This is the weirdest error I've ever seen. There is a UTIL_ClampAngle() call on pEdict->v.ideal_yaw just above the failing assert(), and ClampAngle can't let an overflown angle pass, so the assert should NEVER fail, but it does ???

The only reason perhaps is that pEdict points to an invalid entity, and ClampAngle lands in a highly volatile part of the memory. In which case it's a strange behaviour of Linux, because the program should have crashed sooner already.

Try this new library, I've added a check preventing BotThink() to be called when pEdict is invalid (it should never happen but who knows ?)

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
is there a list of PD commands somewhere that I can use to put the bots on my dedicated Server?

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
As with PMB's podbot plugins those commands are available:

pb addbot <skill> <team> <model> <name>
pb newmap <mapname>
pb removebots
pb killbots
pb fillserver <team>

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
when I type that in the console it dosent recognize the command. Is there somthing I need to put before it?


] pb addbot
Unknown command:

that is what I get.

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
No, this command works if the bot is correctly installed. It is probably not correctly installed on your machine. Type "meta list" in the console and check if the podbot_mm.dll plugin is loaded and running.

Re: POD-bot back into shape.

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
heck this is curious, the syntax reported by metamod is strange... the normal meta list syntax looks somewhat like this:
Quote:

meta list
Currently loaded plugins:
description stat pend file vers src load unlod
[ 1] RACC RUN - racc.dll v2004031 ini Start ANY
[ 2] Bleeding RUN - bleeding_mm.dll v2.1 ini Start ANY
[ 3] PMTools RUN - pmtools_mm.dll vMar 2 ini Start ANY
[ 4] NextMap RUN - nextmap_mm.dll v1.0 ini Chlvl ANY
4 plugins, 4 running
Do you run the bot on a listenserver (LAN game) or on a dedicated one ?

Re: POD-bot back into shape.
 
PBM,

Here is the latest error

hlds_i686: bot.cpp:8089: void BotThink(bot_t *): Assertion `(pEdict->v.ideal_yaw > -181.0) && (pEdict->v.ideal_yaw < 181.0)' failed.
./hlds_run: line 423: 18791 Aborted $HL_CMD
Add "-debug" to the ./hlds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem
Thu Mar 11 16:06:57 CST 2004: Server restart in 10 seconds

I thought it could be adminmod but so I changed adminmod to bot protect but no effect. If it is worthwhile I can disable all the other metamod plugins to see if this has an effect.
