when is a new version/update coming out?

[KWo]

When I'll find the time to work on it. Currently I'm doing something else. V3B18c/d aren't so bad - You can play with these versions without too many troubles.

I've been playing with the bots a little bit today, nothing seems wrong with them.
What exactly did you want updated ?

i've posted them a couple of times, but KWo you keep on ignoring them. Maybe they're too hard for you to add.

KWo isn't really "On Demand".

Escape thing probably will be added, but not right now. And probably not the way You described it should be. I have diferent opionion about bots personalities. Rememer - deffensive bots they are the most scarried ones, aggressive ones are those they don't care about the danger.

Escape thing is not so big bug which needs to be fixed immediately. There is also another bug You haven't noticed yet - the bots still sometimes have troubles to use together a ladder. I've added a code to solve that, but it doesn't work so good I wanted.

you really didn't answer my question about a waypoint that bots start shooting when they go there. I said that it doesn't matter if there are enemies there or not or if bots can hear anything, I mean that bots should just shoot when they walk to that waypoint, regardless of ANYTHING.

about the custom map config things, i don't mean have people edit the cfgs the way they want. of course, they can do that if they want, but these cfgs we'll mainly make, so that it comes with pbmm. you can also make it so that people can turn this option on and off just by changing a variable

also, here's another idea, since you're rejecting many of my ideas

please add more bot personalities!
like one that camps a lot
one that stays around/guards c4 a lot
one that is a rogue
etc.

or maybe different bot profiles
like bots that like to use smgs or bots that like to snipe or something

That doesn't make any sense at all. I haven't seen the human players they shoot everywhere they go. Advanced players tend rather to be silent and to don't shoot too much if it's not necessary... If You personally are using this style of fighting, this is not yet the sufficient reason the same kind of fighting should be added to podbot mm code...

Look into Your podbot folder and see how many cfg/txt files is there. I don't mind to increase their amount... The people are already too much confused by a lot of configs/settings/modes so it's not necessary to make it more complicated than it is right now. You may need to find a new coder to implement for You this thing (no one except You asked for this to be added).

Wrong topic and wrong forum. We do have a forum for ideas. And that forum's tittle says "One idea per thread please! "

Sounds like something DoD has.

I think it would be a nice little thing to have a set amount of bots on certain maps, and learn priorities if a map is huge or small, etc...
But I wouldn't have it concern new bot users.

I agree with KWo that isn't really ammo perserving and like he said, I don't see human player do that as well.
Maybe if they are turning a corner, but that will have to involve hearing and camping a specific way.
