[Help] : podbot teamwork ,and radio

[iluvbot]

there are somethings i want to know about podbot teamworks , please explain for me :

1 .

a . When a bot need backup, encounter enemy .... do other bots know and go to help ?

b. And if they know , can they know where their teammate spotted enemy ?

c. If i set pb_radio to 0 (disable bot's radio) do they still know ?
(i mean if the bots can communicate each other when i disable pb_radio)

2 .

# This value sets the maximum number of Bots of one team to follow thesame
# user(when Radio Command "Follow Me" is used). Default is 5.
pb_numfollowuser 5

a. Please tell me what 's the "user" here means ?
it means only human -
or it means all player (are both human and bots) ?


b . I don't know if changing the value of this command will affect to the bots teamwork ?
("team work" here means between bots with bots , not between bots with human)


c . And this command only has effect on the "Follow Me" command ,
- or it has effect on all other radio commands ?

for more clearly ,here 's an example for "it has effect to other radio commands" :
when i set (pb_numfollowuser to "5" ) and the "user" call "enemy spotted" , there will be max 5 bots come to help him

thanks so much

When the bots call "Enemy spot" or "Taking fire, need assistance" - other bots know where to go (they can see his teamnate on the radar and they go to that place). When pb_radio is off (0), bots cannot call each other, but - i.e. a human would call them, they will go to the right place to try to help. Normally pb_radio should be on (1).

The "user" is a player/bot using the particular bot. I mean - if You want other bots to follow You - You are the "user" for them (in the case they decide to follow You). The same if other bot is calling the command "follow me" - and some bots are deciding to really follow him - then the bot asking other bots to follow him - he is the user for those they follow him.

To be honest - the teamwork of bots is really poor, so that value cannot really affect them to play worse as a team.

No, it does affect only "follow me" command. Other radio commands don't check this value.
