Default Question of using botswhenxplayers mode, v5.00.51(BETA) - 14-03-2004

I have mEAn Mod version 5.00.51(BETA), PODBot 2.5 and CS 1.5, and I noticed that I get an error as the game is loading up via console when trying to use the "botswhenoneplayer" mode for a Listen Server in CS. It doesn't seem to affect the # of bots joining.

I have read the manual and saw that it has been disabled, and how I can "mimick" the botswhenoneplayer mode by using the "botswhenxplayers" mode.

I don't understand the <minbots> and <maxbots> part. Where do I put it in my listenserver.cfg file?

I have 16 specific-named/modeled/teamed/skilled bots, which has 8 on each team, and I want it to stay like this. When I quit the game, I want all bots to quit.

I know how to set them up;
minbots=0
maxbots=16

But I don't know if I'm supposed to put it with the "m_botmode botswhenxplayers 1" thing, or somewhere else, in the listenserver.cfg file.

To specify the min/maxbot settings, you have to use the related command "m_autobalancebots", see below

m_autobalancebots < on | off > [ < minbots > < maxbots > < ratio > ]
bots will auto balance to keep teams even with a ratio of bots
to humans. You can specify a minimum and maximum number of bots
allowed and the ratio. The default is minbots= 4, maxbots= 8,
ratio= 1.75 bots for every human player. When there are no humans
in the game, minbots will always be present.
default minimum access level: admin2

m_botmode botswhenxplayers <xplayers>
Bots will be added to the game based on the <minbots> setting
specified with the m_autobalancebots command. After more than
"x" human players join the game, all the bots will be kicked out
leaving only human players. This mode replaces botswhenoneplayer
which has been removed as redundant.

To specify the original botswhenoneplayer mode,

Specify <xplayers> = 1 as shown below

m_botmode botswhenxplayers 1

Specify from m_autobalancebots

<minbots> = <number of bots when server is empty>
<maxbots> = <number of bots when server has one player in game>
