Bots
www.goldeneye-mod.net

Bots (AI opponents) are included in the mod and they are fairly easy to use.  However, the bots are rather dumb and we know this.  We are working on it, but dumb bots do make easy targets...

Adding Bots

To add a bot into the game you can do it a couple ways:

1.  First is to manually add a bot into the game.  To do this, type "addbot <model> <name> <skill>" in the console.  You actually can only type "addbot" and it will randomly pick the other settings such as the model and name of the bot.  But for the most customization, you can specify the model, name, and skill variables.  The "model" variable is simply the model name.  Valid choices are 006, 007, boris, connery, cwpscientist, ivan, jaws, pilot, soldier, and xenia.  Don't use any other model names!  The "name"  variable is the name of the bot you are going to add.  You can choose any name you like.  The "skill" setting is the skill level of the bot, and 1-5 are valid choices.  1 is the hardest and 5 is the easiest.  So 3 would be medium.

For example, you could type "addbot boris LamerBob 1".  That would add a bot that has the boris character model appearance and is named LamerBob and is the most skilled (meaning he will be very accurate and cheap).  A skill of 1 is not recommended since the bots just have awesome accuracy and is unrealistic and not fun.

2.  Another way to add bots is through the bot.cfg file in the root "goldeneye" folder.  Every time a map is loaded, the bot.cfg is read.  So you can put several bots in the bot.cfg, and every map you play will have those bots join the game without you doing anything.  Please read the bot.cfg file for more instructions on how to use it.  Open the file with a text program like Notepad or Wordpad.

Even though the bot.cfg file has enough documentation in it to understand it, I will go over the basics of the bot.cfg file here.  You just do the same thing as you did before in method 1 of adding bots, meaning you use the "addbot <model> <name> <skill>" command.  But you type it in the text file and save the text file.  Then it will load when you start a game.  A nice feature is the pause option.  You can set the pause to "60" meaning 60 seconds and no commands following the "pause 60" will be initiated until a minute has expired.  So you can add "pause 60" right before you add bots in the bot.cfg, and then when you first get into a map, you have a minute to get oriented and pick up a gun before the bot(s) enter the game.

Bot Commands

The "botdontshoot" command enables you to have bots in the game that don't fire back.  It is a nice command when you want easy kills.  Simply go to the console and type "botdontshoot 1" to use it.  Type "botdontshoot 2" to turn it off so bots fight back again.
