Ricobots

[desNotes]

I am running Ricobots from Whistler, which I believe was a Botman templete bot. I noticed when bot is kicked or leaves due to users coming in and then returns, the time for the bot does not reset. If they are gone for an hour and come back they will show time on the server the same as the bots who have been playing the whole time.

I have the source for the bots and would like to know where to look to reset the time so when a bot returns the time on the server will be start from 0.


Thanks,

PS By the way, RicoBots are pretty good at both deathmatch and arena. They rarely fall and frustrate even the good players with their moves.

have you tried the FREE_PRIVATE() in BotCreate() ?

   if (pBot->pEdict->pvPrivateData != NULL)
      FREE_PRIVATE (pBot->pEdict); // free our predecessor's private data
   pBot->pEdict->pvPrivateData = NULL; // fools the private data pointer
   pBot->pEdict->v.frags = 0; // reset his frag count

however I'm not sure if this will work. If this doesn't work then I think it's just engine internal.

PS, I have my own forum, perhaps you should post there about my things: http://yapb.mapzap.org
