Good news!
Another bot coder in the house
The only (?) bot for Science and Industry: GraveBot
http://www.nocensmundus.net/gravebot/
Its author is Ghoul, some of those who were at botman's back in the old days may remember him. Well now he has a bot on his own and wants to join. I just got an email from him. His bot is based off the HPB_bot template 4 (like almost all the bots out there for any Half-Life mod) but it's interesting nonetheless to host a non-CS bot for once
and SI is still widely played...
I guess it's no problem if I quote him (he applies, so it's not "private" stuff I'm quoting) :

HLDM:
-Bots choose goals based on conditions such as health, armor, weapons, and
ammo. Given enough time, a bot will eventually collect full armor, all
weapons, full ammo (secondary for the MP5 too), and get the long jump.
-Bots won't engage in combat if they're at a major disadvantage (I used
enemy health, bot health, enemy weapon, and bot weapon to calculate this).
S&I:
-Role system that dynamically deciphers what the human players on a team
are attempting to do, then assigns ally bots various roles to balance the
team (you can see this in one of the images at the website). Using the
team cash count and team scientist count, the number of attackers and
defenders is altered throughout the game. Bots are then assigned a role
(offense or defense) and a subrole. Subroles are then broken down further
so the defenders/attackers are balanced evenly for their tasks.

What do you think ? I'd let him in for sure...
