Certainly the bots don't understand the jump pads but direct them at the correct angle with an arc of nodes and they are very proficient (if a bit predictable). But if a gold crate falls on a jump pad the game can get rather stuck with bots off-waypoint trying to return it with one team replenishing it with the one they carry. But if the dropped crate disappeared instantly then in-correct jump pad use would be limited to fights and other off-waypoint action (healing...).
I am not suggesting this map is a serious effort. The bots aim too well in a map with too little cover and no way to sneak in. teams of more than 2-3 might be impossible (say a cvop sniper, a rifle grenade engr. and a flamethrower)
Anyway I just thought it would improve crapshoot's ground-breaking baserace if the gold crates disappeared so the bots did not scrum.

And thanks for everything Mal. Your continued presence in the forums is greatly appreciated.
