Murder Bots

This addon is NOT supported right now. As far as I am aware it still functions fully, but it will not be updated quickly in the event of a Garry's Mod update breaking it.



This addon is my own version of the existing bots for Murder. These bots are not meant to be a replacement for human players; they're supposed to be a supplement -- for instance, if you have 4 friends but wish to be in a more populated server without the toxicity or the awkwardness of random Garry's Mod players, you could just add a few bots to make the game feel just a little more full.




adds # bots to the server. Only works for registered superadmins.

opens the murder bot menu. Useful for on-the-fly configuring. Only works for registered superadmins.


murder_bot_quota # will attempt to ensure # player slots are filled at all times. If a player leaves then a bot is added / if a player joins a bot is removed.

murder_bot_remove_doors 0/1 if doors are becoming a serious hindrance then set this convar to 1 to remove all doors at the start of all rounds.

murder_bot_difficulty 0-100 makes the sheriff bot more accurate and quicker 'on the draw' as this value approaches 100. By default this is set to 25. Cannot go below zero but can go above.

murder_bot_nocollide 0/1 no colliding bots is a quality of life feature which easily resolves traffic jams. By default bots are set to nocollide (1). This can be set to 0 if you really like bots getting stuck on each other.


Q: Why can't I spawn bots?
A: If you are attempting to add bots in-game and you have already tried using !addbot # and the bots won't spawn, ensure you are a registered superadmin on the server. If any murder bot-related errors occur in the console, please notify me at once. If this doesn't work, then enter murder_bot_quota # into the console where # is the amount of player slots you want filled. If this doesn't work, there are no errors, and the addon is installed, then all there is left for you to do is cry.

Q: Why don't the bots move?
A: The bots require a navigation mesh to function properly. Without this, the bots are rendered immobile. If you want to generate a navmesh, you must be an in-game superadmin. In order to create a navmesh for the murder bots, look at the ground and type into the console: murder_bot_gennewnavmesh. Please note that the given command does not have an effect if entered thru a dedicated server's (not in game) console.


Add bots in-game with !addbot #
Remove/Configure bots using the custom bot ui in-game: !botmenu
Add/remove bots when necessary outside of the game thru the console command "murder_bot_quota #"
You must be in a server with available player slots in order to add bots


This murder bots addon was coded entirely by myself, with inspiration from NostalgiaRunner's own Murder Bots addon.
