I'm not brown-nosing just in case you were wondering but all I can say is this. Good waypoints maps are a pleasure to play, bad waypointed maps can be a real pain as you try to hunt down the looping bots . . .

It was by studying a set done by >BKA< T Wrecks and a set by A N Other that I started to learn how big a difference waypoints can actually make to bot performance. Probably not the best way to learn but it worked for me as the manual at the time was less then helpful (good job on this too BTW). As I had 2 sets for Italy, I wanted to find out why some of the CT bots were getting stuck at the top of the ramp at the CT spawn in one of the versions. An outgoing path was the answer but only by looking at both did I understand why they differed. You make them jump over the railing, not try to run through it. So thanks >BKA< T Wrecks for your (unknowing and unappreciated ) help. That got me started customising them for my requirements and I've not looked back.

You want better bot performance, customise the waypoints for your requirements.

Though this is just my opinion, it's right . . . lol
