Plutonium

New update:

• Bots now avoid power-ups inside prison cells in Mob.

• Readjusted the aim offset for bots again when aiming.

• Reduced bot health from 6000 to 1200 to make them prone to get down in later rounds.

• Fixed an issue where bots wouldn’t cancel their attempt to buy from the box if another bot was already using it.

• Potential fix for bots causing the box to get stuck and preventing purchases from it (heavily tested, but not guaranteed of being fixed it).

• Added a check for players using the vanilla perk limit in custom games; bots will now only buy up to 4 perks.

Masatanium Yeah, I set it up that way for compatibility across maps. On Die Rise and Buried, for example, bots can’t reach the PaP machine, so I removed pathfinding from that function. They have the same issue with the box too, but that’s something I can’t really fix. I tried to make this mod work like the ZM Bots from BO3.

When I say they were unable to stay alive, I mean that even with the health of a normal player, they couldn’t survive mid-late rounds.

Masatanium Yes, there is. Unlike players, they can’t train zombies, so they tend to get surrounded and get killed easily when they have normal health.
I added that quantity when I was playing on Mob, and they were unable to stay alive for 5 minutes.

Updated the code:

• Improved performance (i think so, i tested it and i can play now with more than 8 bots).

• Re-adjusted the tiers weapons preferences for the bots on the box.

• Re-adjusted the cooldown for buying the box mid-late rounds, they had a strong cooldown so i buffed their userate of using the box.

• Tweaked their aim offset to aim down a little more to the head-neck to at least have more chance to kill.

Thanks to github copilot that i manage to improve the performance or at least that's what i think.

Jack Dempsey Glad to hear that. If you don't mind, I've updated the code with a few minor fixes, so feel free to download the mod again if you'd like.

Jack Dempsey I played with 7 bots including me at setting the lobby on a custom game to 8 players and it works pretty well, but i wouldn't recommend it to you because it's pretty unstable sometimes, maybe the game engine being the reason for that problem, i don't know. I would recommend to set like 4 or 5 maximum for stability.

I made a mistake, you have to type "set zm_bots *" the asterisk being the number of bots you want.

I want to give credit to GerardS0406 for being the first to create this mod and for establishing its foundations; to BySc for continuing Gerard’s work and adding some useful functions that I took, tested, and modified myself; and finally to techboy04gaming, whose wander function I borrowed and implemented into the mod.

To add bots in-game, simply open the console and type "zm_bots *", where the asterisk represents the number of bots you want. If you want more—for example, 5 bots—you will need to increase your party size in the lobby from 4 to your desired number.

If anyone wants to improve this mod, feel free to try, it’s completely open source.

Just copy and paste the link, don’t click it because it won’t work.

I’m not going to take suggestions for improving the mod, since I don’t know how to code. I only have a basic understanding of how the functions work, and the mod already works quite well. As I mentioned before, anyone is free to improve it.

vandal59 Sorry, but I haven't found a way to help you, I don't have too much experience in coding mods yet.

Ultimateman Would you mind making a lightweight script with that function?
I can't understand how to make it work as you instructed.

Yeah, i made a mistake, is this line "player thread on_player_spawned();"

@bocanegra59 In zm_bo2_bots_utility.gsc search this line "level thread init_zombie_healthbar();" and try to add "//" before the line of the script starts.

Zevon Try to update your plutonium, the version you have is outdated.

Gundawg21 No prob

Gundawg21 It has to do more with this line in zm_bo2_bots
// Deduct points
self maps\mp\zombies_zm_score::minus_to_player_score(950);

To solve the problem you need to replace the number 950 to 0.

BySc The teleport function keeps killing the bots when teleport to you.

BySc There is another thing, bots when they have pap weapons and they are close to a wallbuy they buy for example an m14 or an ak74. It bothers a bit when they are in high rounds and change their weapons for much worse ones.
And that's It, the rest of the mod works perfectly.

Would it be possible to create a briefly moment of invulnerability for you and the bots when they teleport?
Either they die or I get killed when it happens.
