Default Bots voting - 09-07-2006

Is there a way to make bots vote for a map when AMX vote menu pops up?

I know bots chose one of many choices for punishing tk'ers, but I never seen them vote for maps.

Maybe it's a bug. Depends on what KWo thinks.
I don't really mind if they do or not.

Well - it's not the same if bots randomly use some punishement for TK in ATAC plugin or if they choose random weapons for CSDM (these things have some sense for me), and if they randomly choose some map. What is the sense to let bot decide - instead the people - about the map they will be playing? Imagine the situation - You are playing on some map with few people, but the majority are bots. And they will decide instead You and Your friends about the next map.
It's not a bug. And the choices of weapons (CSDM) and punishements (ATAC) are done inside these AMX/AMX X plugins (BTW - by me - You can see some comments in sma ) - there is nothing with bot code.
That's why the bots are also not able to vote for kick anyone in ATAC plugin (the people can do this).

Well, my question actually comes from the fact that there's no convenient way to make a server pick a random map from mapcycle.txt instead of looping through the map list sequentially. AFAIK, there's no AMX plugin to do just that, nor there's a cvar for the same purpose. So one of the 'solutions' I thought of was bots voting for a map, which would make nextmap random.

Maybe you can make a little config or something for fav maps or best maps and bots will vote for those maps, if they are listed.

Even if it's randomized for the favorite maps it's mostlikly going to choose one of them.
I don't think having 4 fav maps or even 3 in 1 vote session is impossible.

Like
pb fav_maps "
cs_militia
de_dust2
de_dust2_1337
de_dust
de_rats
fy_repub"

The chances that all of those maps in 1 vote session is small
But my logic is very small in bot coding so I don't really have a clue

One little AMX/X plugin can do the random map choosing for no time.

Just go to the AMX or AMX X forum and write the topic with request such plugin. Bots aren't presupposed to do some map management. Map and server management is under AMX / AMX X resposability.
