Fun-bots - TDM - AI - Bots for BF3-VU

Yeah I have this problem on rush mode, it works great but as defender the tickets get lost too fast xD
Thanks anyway for your answer!

You could record several pahts in different zones and spawn the bots on fixed ways (via chat-commands). Or write a kind of selection algorithm on the pahts. But this could be a little time consuming :slight_smile: . Maybe we will have more supported Gamemodes soon.

What are these commands and will it be saved after setup?
Different paths are set, I will keep an eye on this. Thank you very much!
Maybe I try to disable redzones for bot team, if it is possible.

You can use the vu var vu.DesertingAllowed to disable players getting killed for leaving the combat area.


All other solutions require a little coding at least…

Thanks very much, it works good so far!

I am getting an Error report that appears to load up the server severely at times. This is spamming in game console:

[string “Bot.lua”]:360: attempt to compare number with stringstack traceback:[string “Bot.lua”]:360: in method ‘updateShooting’[string “Bot.lua”]:76: in method ‘onUpdate’[string “BotManager.lua”];135: in function <[string "BotManager.lua]"129>

Should not happen anymore in the new release

Would it be possible to make Congestion sites…

eg: in Rush mode - move towards Mcoms regardless if you are attacker or defender.
also Rush mode - Activation or Deactivation of MCOMS

for Conquest - move towards flags, but only if they are taken…

Currently the bots are massive fun, even though they are stupid .
Made me think of a Zombie mod for VU - the current bots just needs to walk towards players instead of shooting them.

Thank you for your Feedback!
You can change the Weapon of the Bots to “Knive” (Settings-Global in the UI). Then they will just run towards you. If you want to change the speed you have to modify it in the file Bot.lua:777.
But we are already thinking about a Zombie-Mode or separated Mod :wink:

Right now the Bots only walk along on paths. But as soon as we add more logic to the pathfinding, these suggestions from you shold be done verry fast :slight_smile:

Hi, i need some help in same problem, server is running , it shows 10 bots in team menu but they don’t spawn anywhere on the map. I’m new in this and maybe am doing something wrong.

On your map are no valid Paths (0 Paths have been loaded).
As MP013 is not supported jet, you have to record your own paths (With the trace-menu) and save them.
Afterwards your bots will spawn.

Thanks for fast reply, but i think my problem is that i was running Conquest map. Can i have bots in Conquest mode or it have to be TDM only. Thank you

Can you add an infinite ammo function? When practicing with the bot, I always run out of bullets quickly,Thanks for making this great mod!

Just spawn into the game as support and drop an ammo pack then respawn as whatever class you want to practice with. You can then get ammo from the ammo pack.

Great, thanks for your suggestions!

You can create paths as well. But they are only valid in Conquest. And as there is no logic jet to let to bots do objectives, it may be just ab big Deathmatch :slight_smile:

Thanks De_Joe…sorry for so many questions but am a noob at this , but i will like to play Conquest with tanks, choppers on my server, but i try to create paths and i think am doing something wrong. Is there any tutorial for dummies’ how to do this?

I got it working, time to make all paths in Conquest…thanks

This is amazing! I’ve been dying to play this game against bots for a long time. It breathes new life into this game and makes it possible to finally play the DLC maps I never got a chance to. I wish I knew more about programming and whatnot so I could help figure out how to make additional functions like flying helicopters and driving tanks. I’m brand new to PC gaming and modding, but I’ll do my best to learn. Thank you so much for all your hard work making this possible!
