Restricting on specific weapons.
 

I think this has been mentioned, and I know it cannot be done through any other plugin. But, since you can restrict the bots to rifles, or snipers, wouldn't it be possible to restrict them even more? Like only using awp, and nothing else?

I hate when I'm on awp and they use autosnipers v.v players complain too, saying it isn't fair. lol. Would be nice. I also read what PMB said about other plugins ignored by the bots coz they themselves are plugins.

Just read here.

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

I don't think you got my idea. I already know they do that, what I'm saying is to go to more specific weapons such as only using an awp and nothing else. No autosnipers.. none of that.

The mean bot manager does allow you to so some specific restrictions.

From the manual ....

====================================

These commands work great on maps like shotgun_map, scout_map and
awp_map. They can be real fun on other maps as well.

player dies.

Use these commands from console or "say" message:

m_knifewar ......... Knives and nades only

These additional weapon bans are available:

I've used your mod before ^^.. a lotta fun. Hmm, and you've tried using these against bots coz I can't recall using it when I did have your mod.

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

Yes it works pretty good but not perfectly because I could not prevent the bots from buying banned weapons directly.

The method I used prevents the banned weapon from being spawned, so when they try and buy a banned weapon, nothing appears. I then force the bots to buy whatever weapons are not banned.

The bots don't know that they can't buy the restricted weapons so when a bot tries to buy the weapon it wastes money on it which puts them at a disadvantage. I never figured out how to give the bots more money which would have solved the problem (I think it can be done).

There may also be an issue with stability because preventing weapons from being spawned may break something along the way.

Despite all this, I found it still works pretty good.

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

Ohh, nice job then. ^^ I just hope in the future they can implement this to the bots. Is it that hard to be more specific when they can already restrict to shottys or rifles?

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

My reply sticked to that Your part of question:

"Like only using awp, and nothing else? "

I don't think it's not doable to make a weapon restriction. There is a need to add to bots code a cvar which will have some bits responsible for buying/using (it needs work also for pickup) some weapons. If some bit of that cvar is set to 1 - it may means this weapon is banned. So in bot's code such weapon can't be bought or pickuped up according to bit of that cvar. And to control this cvar You can easy write an AMX/AMXX or ClanMod script (this even me - I could do it)

If my C++ coding skill would be at least 10% (now is about 0%), I could do it my-self in bot code...=)

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

Well, I have no knowledge of that XD so I can for the most part just use mEAnmod. :) Thanks.

Re: Restricting on specific weapons.
 

Well - I still don't think my C++ coding skill reached 10%, but the weapon restriction is done in current sources - still in beta testing. :)
