Thats what the game says when a bot Tk's you. I made it where the game considers the bots to be local clients so that if they TK you, you can't complain against them and kick them. It wouldn't really make sense to complain about a bot afterall - he didn't do it on purpose!

Que pasa?
Thats hard to say without seeing the exact error msg - can you take a screenshot of your console so that I can see exactly what its saying. Also, what do you have sv_pure set to? Do you have custom bots that you guys have made and are trying to load?

Try checking the value of "com_zonemegs". It should be at least 16. Try 24 if its already 16.

You CAN add them manually in your map rotation file by calling the map specific *_bots.cfg file.

It should always load them if you start the game up thru the main menu. I'm not sure about when you run dedicated simply because I've never run a server with it (I'm on 56k). CrapShoot may have a bit more experience with this one.
