Weapon Proirities

[Burnt Powder]

Hello, I was wondering. I have my DS set up to load 10 bots on startup and on a map change. I have in my botweapon.cfg this:

# The following Tables stores the Weapon Priorities of the Bots depending on
# Personality (it affects buying & picking up better weapons from the
# ground).
# Weapon Priorities for a Normal Standard Bot
[NORMAL]
0,1,2,3,4,6,5,9,13,17,16,14,18,19,15,21,22,23,20,7 ,8,24,11,10,12,25
# Weapon Priorities for an Agressive Bot
[AGRESSIVE]
0,1,2,3,4,6,5,9,13,17,16,14,18,19,15,21,22,23,20,7 ,8,24,11,10,12,25
# Weapon Priorities for a Defensive Bot
[DEFENSIVE]
0,1,2,3,4,6,5,9,13,17,16,14,18,19,15,21,22,23,20,7 ,8,24,11,10,12,25

As you can see, the proirity is the same for all three and is basicly the priority of any CS player regardless if they were being agressive, defensive, or normal. My problem is no matter what order I put in, the bots buy POS guns like the shottys and the MAC10/TMP which are at the very bottom of the priority list.

Since I installed "The Ultimate POD-Bot Menu v1.1" (Great Plugin), I can change the buy modes to rifle, sniper rifle, shotty, pistol, and so on. This is nice because I want it to be on rifle all the time however, as soon as the map changed, it is right back to the POS shottys and MAC10/TMP buying.

Is there any way I can make it so that it is always on RIFLE even after map changes or server restarts?

Would it be ok to set guns I do not EVER want to bots to buy to -1 in the botweapons.cfg file or is that a no-no?

TIA

there's a little section in the .cfg to disallow buying of certain weapons:

# Standard Weapon Tab for CS & DE Maps
[STANDARD]
-1,-1,-1,2,2,0,1,2,2,2,1,2,0,2,0,0,1,1,2,2,0,1,2,0,1,1

Ok so it is fine to do that then because in my last post I said asked......Would it be ok to set guns I do not EVER want to bots to buy to -1 in the botweapons.cfg file or is that a no-no?

yes you can change it

i tryed editing my botweapons.cfg so the bots want buy any snipers and mostly buy ak's & m4's but when i did the server wouldn't start i got podbot_mm.dll has causes errors
and server needs to close
it worked fine when i put the original cfg back in
anyone got this file pre edited laying around sence i'm unable to do it myself

I no longer have the original but I have edited mine so that they can only buy MP5's, AK's, and M4's and I know that it works just fine. I also have it edited so that they will not pick up a sniper rifle.

NOTE: There are to be NO spaces between 10, and 25 in any of the Weapon Priorities.....it is just a forum error.

I think this cfg will do exactily what you were trying to do.
