@slash-evil: the 2nd bug you're talking about is a well-known bug in the HL engine. Creating a fakeclient (a bot) triggers the sending of a lot of network messages. If you attempt to create several of them during the same frame time, the engine will eventually hit its maximal buffer size for network messages about to be sent, and hence crash. It is safe to wait at least 0.5 second between each creation of a bot.
