With R2Bxx version You cannot invoke podbot menu from the client PC, if the game is created on dedicated server. Since V3 it's changed. I'm still waiting for docs for V3 - to call it officially instead beta, but there is a lot of users and no one says it crashes, so You may take it safetly. You can find it in either
Beta Version or in
Third Party of filebase. Read the readme.txt included there, because few things have been changed - for example the command "addbot" has been replaced by "add" (but the syntax is still the same), all command needs to use pb prefix (also these for waypointing as 'pb wpmenu'), the settings are changed into cvars. It's good if You read the new podbot.cfg included with the beta - there is everythung described - also the access to the main podbot menu from client's PC (as setinfo - symilar like for AMX/AMX X) when the game is created on DS. You need to use all new configs included with beta.
