Description
This mod is inspired by Competitive Bots Addon made by Omixsat but enhanced and rebalanced with additional functions.
This addon is still in a public testing phase so some of the things may change!

Also if you want, the best experience with this mod comes Enhanced Bot AI which is way better made and it doesnt conflict with my mod(Not sure) Here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2279814689&searchtext=BOTS
This addon already makes them smart but another addon gives them true life, check that out!

A simple add-on for Left 4 Dead 2 in order to improve gameplay experience and try to port it to a new level. This mod will change almost everything that is related to the gameplay experience such as timing of animations, weapon ammo quantity and capability and AI of Bots and Special Infected and not only.
As you may know, Bots react slower in order to allow players to adapt to the environment, play properly and improve once you have enough experience. In this addon AI from both sides will react faster than normal to which it introduces to a new challenging and enthusiastic playstyle. The biggest point was to rework the weapons and ammo system and make them close to the real life counterparts. This makes a big difference and now players must be aware that every bullet is important. With improved reaction times and better AI behavior for the bots in either side, you must know that this addon is mostly dedicated to players who know this game long enough and want something new and challenging.

Which difficulty you recommend to play with this?

@Punisher_Lꟼ In gameplay perspective yes, but it gonna show you red in the menu of addons. Since some of the tweaks to AI are present here too but they are not going to break left4bots and it will work anyway.

this mod is compatible with left4bots?

@meow There are planty different/same BOT ai adjustments mods. I took a template with commands from reddit mod guide and made adjustuments. Some were my own tweaks too, i just made this on my liking. If it may look similar, well, i guess game reads the same code same way. Why should i make it different.

which one? or is it yours? (custom made bots)
Raiden  [author] 15 Nov, 2022 @ 4:51am 
@meow Uh, no.

is this mod using Competitive+ bots?

I like the idea, but there are certain QoL things that could make it better, like weapon icon support for the guns, and a changelist that shows exactly what the changes are for the guns
Overall, I dig it
It isn't my cup of tea, but I must applaud the quality

I stopped using the addon and the ammo and crosshair changes didn't revert, and I unsubscribed but it still didn't fix it. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm reinstalling the game right now.
