Sorry for late reply

For icy or slippy problem, though need to be fixed, at least I can play with your BOT on map with normal terrain.

For example, non official maps such as op4_ctf omen, it's pretty simple map, and the BOT wouldn't get any problems there.

As for carrying an enemy's flag to their base, though they don't consider no longer have a flag, I think it's not a big problem. As long there is a correct waypoint from one flag to the another one, they will following their path without trouble

Agreed - I'll look at trying to just lower the slipperiness instead of getting rid of it all together though so that the original effect is left somewhat intact.

I agree it's not a huge deal in the scheme of things but I'll get it sorted.

What The Storm said - he added MetaMod support for v0.4 which was released in March.

Oh, I forgot about that

But I still can't change bot_count, because 11 BOTS is too many for me

Also I hope someday we can change BOT names

I'll look at changing bot_count thing.
Changing names will come eventually - at the moment the bot creation code is a bit complicated and I want to simplify it before I do that.

I could be wrong, but bot_skill does not seem to work either when loading Sandbot through Metamod.
Although singleplayer does work in the newest version of Sandbot, there are still some problems (regardless of whether Metamod is used or not):
- many scripted sequences are broken, preventing progression (for example, the Barney at the end of the tram ride in Half-Life will not move to open the door);
- saved games are corrupted (if you try to load any saves made while Sandbot was installed they will crash the game, or if they do load the scripted events will not work).
HPB bot had these singleplayer issues as well, and they were fixable by using a Metamod plugin called SingleP. There is a link to it on the HPB bot website.

bot_skill shouldn't have any problems - note that if you change it then it won't change the skill of existing bots, only bots that you add after the change (I think I will change this behaviour). Does that correspond with what you see?

Thanks for pointing out SingleP - I suspected that might have been the issue (all the other things seemed okay, though possibly the save-restore wasn't). I'll take a look though it appears to be Windows only from the quick look I had but single player is now available on Linux (and Mac) too.

Alright I got Opposing Force CTF working by the looks of it. I'll probably tidy things up and release it in the next few weeks.
I'll take a proper look at single player support probably as part of the next release.
