Here's what I recommend:

"there are supposed to be 10 terrorist bots but only 9 come in."

In podbot.cfg disable min_bots 10 max_bots 10 and let mEAn do the bot count management.

"3rd I cannot seem to get the banawp to work or is that only for the bots?"

In the MEANcommands.txt document read up carefully on how the ban weapons work and make adjustments accordingly. The weapon banning works for both bots and humans, or for one or the other. There are some issues with banning weapons on bots, so read through all of it to understand what's going on and how it works.

"second after the first round they all spread out throughout CT/T."

I don't understand what this means, please explain some more.

"No matter what team I join it kills me and says I'm on the wrong team"

The pluigin determines team membership by the skins in use, so make sure you are not using custom skins. Also, you can tell mean what team the bots are on, and if there's team enforcement or not. See the MEANcommands.txt document for details (search for "team" throughout the text to see all the commands related to team management).

Try the above, and let me know how it went. By solving one problem, we may fix others, so even if you don't see all the solutions you need, try fixing what you can and we'll go from there. Good luck.

Ok what I meant by they spread out is in my server.cfg I have this.

m_addbot 10 te
m_banawp on
m_botskill 80
[botteam_te]

I thought those commands would add 10 bots to the terrorist team and then set the botteam to be terrorist. But as I said after the first round is over they even the teams out between CT and T. That is also why I thought that since there are bots on both teams it thinks that the bot team is both.... I am going to remove the 10min 10max from the podbot.cfg and see what happens there...

Thank You
Quick

Ok it looks like I have gotten everything to work now except the awp ban... From what I was reading in order to ban awps for the human team and everything else to work normal I should have this in the .cfg please correct me if I am wrong....
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

m_WarMode humans (this will allow the m_banawp command to be applied to humans correct?)

m_banawp

m_useweaponrank on (since this is disabled with the warmode)

Looks fine except you have to specify on or off for m_banawp

m_banawp < on | off >

To get mEAn to auto add the bots use

m_autobalancebots

Lookup the command for usage details, also look up

m_botmode
m_enforcebotteam
m_enforcehumanteam
m_autosteamswitch
m_switchbotteam

There's a lot of commands, but this should be enough to get you going.

Well here is what I ended up with after tinkering with everything for a while... I added a scenario cfg file for every map on my server with this.

m_botmode botvshuman
m_switchbotteam te
m_autosteamswitch off
m_enforcebotteam on
m_autobalancebots on 10 10 0
m_WarMode humans
m_banawp on
m_useweaponrank on
m_botskill 80

I haven't had any problems with it in the last few hours so I hope everything is good to go 10 Bots vs CT Humans AWP is banned for humans...

Come check out my server sometime.

One thing that did happen that I found kind of wierd was that earlier in the day I had adjusted a few things and the slayings stopped (botteamenforce)then all of the sudden after you would play for 4-8 rounds you would be slayed for 3-4 rounds and then be back to normal... I don't know how I fixed it (was changing a couple things at a time) or what was causing it... But everything seems to check out ok just thought I'd let you know about that...

Happy to see you got things working. It's been a long time since I last played CS, but I may drop by if I can find the time.
