Hi,

first thanks for having made thougts about it prior releasing it, from the bot coder / Server admin side it's a nice feature: it helps hide bots, ppl get angry at bots more likely if they know that those are bots.
But on the other hand you might "open pandoras box" for cheaters, certainly not the main feature a bot should become famous for
I'd suggest you try to contact some dev at Valve, AFAIK we have had contacts in the past. They should be able to clarify "the danger" this code realy might have. I assume none from the few facts I read here, but might be the general implementation that can cause other harm.
(just my 2 cents)

Cheers Onno
