I don't know how much work it will be or if it is even possible, but it would be cool if the bots would go to the mystery box and spin the box when they buy a random weapon.

The changes in this mod are a big improvement over the other version in my opinion and a lot closer to the bo4 bots, good work.

It is possible, but there would be some issues with it. Bots would probaly either get surrounded while they are waiting for the box or just miss it, and pathing issues would appear, because if the box is on the other side of the map then they have to get there somehow, even if there are doors/debris between them. What i noticed is if the path to something is blocked then bots will just stand still. (I couldn't manage to find how to check if a path is blocked or not). That is why i made it like this. The same problem would be with perks, and i'm not sure if it can be done without issues.

ok I understand, tnx for explaining

Are you able to add custom perks? If so, perks like PHD and something else that would seem interesting to you would make the game with bots much more fun. If not, well too bad for me I guess.

I can add any vanilla perk to the list. I added these 3 because IMO these are the most useful for bots, maybe Electric Cherry would be good for them too, if they get overrun.

Widows wine might be better, also I was talking about custom perks the player could get.
I've seen bots get custom perks in maps before too, it's from the perk drop power up

They can pick up perk bottles, cuz they are counted as power-ups, but i cannot add perks that only specific maps have (since they are built in), only those, which BO3 has by default (8 perks).

I can add Widow's Wine, but if bots get downed, it won't be cheap for them to get all the perks back :D
Also they get hit many times, so i think the widow grenades would run out before they would get surrounded.

Could you make it that if you try to buy something that you dont have enough for, the bot thats has the points to oepn said door come to you and open said door?, or interact with certan things like the crystal releace process on gorod krovi
UnDeaD  [developer] 5 Jun, 2020 @ 1:40am 
I can try to change the Follow mode, so if the player is near a door, bots will focus on the nearest one to the player. So far a haven't managed to find custom things bots could interact with, like said crystal release process, but i'll dig in the files and see what i can find. The problem is that i don't have the DLC.I guess i'll experiment with the power switch first.

It would be cool if there was an option to choose how many bots started with the player.
UnDeaD  [developer] 6 Jun, 2020 @ 1:02pm 
You can set that by changing the player limit when in lobby in Social / Manage Party
Added to the Notes, so anyone can see it easily.

idk if this is possible but could you code it so the bots teleport to the other shangri la pack pads when you step on one? it'd be dope playing with bots but makes packing impossible
UnDeaD  [developer] 6 Jun, 2020 @ 4:06pm 
It would be possible, but i would have to rewrite some of the code, so you could order each bot where to stand (like in Stay mode). If i'll have more time for it, i'll try to make it, but i can't promise anything.

that would be so helpful bots on shang and being able to pack would be a dream and that sounds perfect or like a set path just for shang where they walk to a set spot

    List of problems I've noticed
  • due to the random nature of guns they often will stand there not firing because they ran out of ammo. you should consider making it so they will either buy a new gun when they run out of ammo or simply give them infinite ammo.
  • Zombies are extremely awful about reviving each other/you! either make them invincible while the player is still standing or find a way to make them better at getting each other up.
  • they often horde points at the beginning only to use them to buy perks instead of buying doors. you should put a cap on what round they start buying perks
