How to add bot fill to my server?

Pellux

I set up a public FFA server for my friends and anyone else looking for server and got it set up pretty well. The next thing I'd like to do is add a bot fill so there will always be a few "players" to play against in the lobby but I can't, for the life of me, find out how to do it. I've seen other servers do it so I know it should be possible but I can't seem to find the config or plugin that enables it. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

For how it works and all you can use these as a reference (they are for MW3 but the majority of how it works and the dvars is the same)

To install it simply take everything inside the raw folder and put it in %localappdata%\Plutonium\storage\t6 (not the files but the folders so that it matches the folder structure Plutonium has like scripts\mp)

Ahhh that's it! Thanks so much! It seems like I got it installed, but I just can't figure out what the button is to bring the menu up. The IW5 docs say N for the nightvision key but of course that doesn't work in T6. Do you happen to know how to access the menu?

Pellux there's no menu, just set dvars in your server cfg

Pellux

Ohh I see, gotcha. So there's no way to change the settings for it with server running them, no? It seems like the commands on that page don't seem to work either.

Resxt

Pellux just like any other dvar you simply change the dvar value

Pellux

Oh! I didn't even know that was a thing! Is there a comprehensive list of commands I can use for the Plutonium server?

Resxt

Pellux not really no, just read the provided dedicated cfgs and try stuff in the game's console
If you have questions just ask

There should be a "popular bo2 dvars" list/website on Google but idk where

Pellux

Resxt No worries. Thank you so much for the help so far. I think I figured that part out. I'm not sure how familiar you are with Bot Warfare but there is something I can't get to work. I can add the bots with the command now and that works but the actual filling doesn't seem to.

bots_main "true" //Toggles bots
bots_manage_fill_mode "0" //bots_manage_fill players/bots counting method. 0 - counts both players and bots, 1 - counts only bots
bots_manage_fill "4" //Amount of players/bots to maintain
bots_main_kickBotsAtEnd "false" //Kick the bots at the end of a match
bots_manage_fill_kick "true" //If the amount of players/bots in the match exceeds bot_manage_fill, kick bots until no longer exceeds
bots_skill "0" //0 - Random difficulty, 1-7 - easiest to hardest, 8 - custom difficulty
bots_skill_min "4" //The minimum difficulty level for the bots.
bots_skill_max "7" //The maximum difficulty level for the bots.
bots_loadout_reasonable "true" //If the bots should filter bad performing create-a-class selections
bots_loadout_prestige "-2"

This is the config I'm using currently. Basically I want it to keep at least 4 people/bots in at all times. And immediately add/kick bots if the threshold is over/under. Currently, it never adds any unless I manually run the command and it doesn't kick them if more people join either. Anything I could be missing?

Pellux I'm not sure you can use "true", try changing to "1" instead, at least that's from the tests I did.
This is my config on MW3 and it does just that. So it's either an issue with the "true" values or you didn't add/configure a manage dvar properly I guess
