POD-bot back into shape.

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

I don't know why this error occurs. I can't reproduce it. You're not the only one telling me about it, but since I've not seen it yet with my own eyes I can only try to guess where it may come from.

Try this one.

PMB,


The new .so is working well. A few crashes but I have not had the time to investigate. Thanks for the hard work.

ok got it working kindof. had to reinstall EVERYTHING....

anyway it cant find the waypoints.

Adding new bot...
No Waypoints for this Map, can't create BOT

but the waypoints are in the folder
anyideas?

Walten,


I had a similar problem. If you are using Linux it is case sensitive. When podbot starts up it looks for the waypoints in WPTDEFAULT and after a map change then looks in wptdefault. I just made two directories with the same content. If you are not using Linux ignore this.

Cooley

that sounds like it could be my problem. Ill try that and let you know, Thanks for the help

Thanks guys.
I'll look at this waypoint folder issue and then make a release.

Okay, new release, new changelog

+ Fixed metamod not reloading plugin after map change issue
+ Fixed failing assert() on Linux systems
+ Fixed a good heap of Linux bugs thanks to the feedback from Bots United
+ Fixed WPTDEFAULT directory case issue (now the default waypoint folder is
"wptdefault" in lowercase)
+ Added version stamp to the Win32 DLL this way Austin will be happy
+ Miscellaneous minor fixes

The bot should run almost fine in Linux now.
Some people reported that the waypoint navigation was slightly better in the original POD-bot 2.5, can I have precise, measurable examples ? a demo perhaps ?

install as usuals.

They don't seem to respond when i use the radio command "Storm the front!" they used to respond in 2.5
and could you add their skill back to their name? or is there an option somewhere to show it?
Great work!
I don't seem to notice any difference in navigation.

Still getting this error even after I installed you new release. And I tried to put both folders in there.

man i want this..

@Walten: you must have a problem with your installation. You extract the zip file inside the cstrike directory, that's all.

It gives then:

cstrike/podbot/podbot_mm_i386.so

The default waypoint folder is:

cstrike/podbot/wptdefault

It's also declared as such in the podbot.cfg file.
