Customized prefix before bot's name.

Hello,

I see in podbot v3b21 we can set the prefix before bot's name with this option in podbot.cfg :

Code:

# This  value sets the skilldisplay and/or the prefix before bot's name.

# 0 - no skilldisplay and no [POD] prefix before the name;

# 1 - both - skilldisplay and [POD] prefix before the name are added;

# 2 - only the [POD] prefix before the name is added;

# 3 - only the skill (for example (100) ) sufix after the name is added;

# The prefixes are: for aggresive bots the prefix is [P*D], 

# for normal ones - [POD] and for deffensive ones is [P0D] 

# (just zero instead "o" between "P" and "D").

# Default is 1.

It is good but I would like to put a customized prefix before bot's name... For example : "[BOT]" or "[CPU]".

Can we do this with podbot mm?

Re: Customized prefix before bot's name.

Customized prefixes and sufixes aren't available. You cannot do that.

Re: Customized prefix before bot's name.

There is a way to do that, but you have to edit botnames.txt
And add [CPU] in front of their names and go into the podbot.cfg and turn off prefixes.

[CPU]Botman
[CPU]KWo
[CPU]Count Floyd

That's how it will look.

I have done something like that, but I added various alliance names so people wouldn't think they are bots right away.

Re: Customized prefix before bot's name.

Oh yeah nice idea for the prefix, I will do that (edit the botnames.txt file).
But I think it should be a good idea to add the customized prefix feature in a next release for podbot mm.
Thank you for the quick answer ;-)
