Keeper Specific bots.

Post by Inphidel »

While the bot AI is coming along nicely. I think part of making the community grow for new players. the ability to have a server where you can have 2 bots spawn - as keep, and always trying to become keep maybe team saying to their team mates "I've got keep! please move outa penalty box so i can get my powers!"

so servers like the |BUD| server can have a votable option to allow for keeper bots. so new players can play without having bickering over eachother to who is going to play keep.

this is one of the many problems i think make deathball displeaseing to new players. I know it won't help new player want to become keepers but atleast it helps them get their foot in the door.

and with set able keeper skills. they could even come in useful for mixer games and such when there are no keepers around to play. or just for general practice.

ty drive through.

true true. but alot more step in the game for the first time, and score. if the posibility is atleast there to setup a server to have bot keeps. then it can be made a voteable option via unrealvote . an thus we can continue our mission even more so to help grow this comunity.. it all starts with pubs...

the idea of a keeper bot is a good one.

how about coding it such that if there is no keeper or the human player leaves goal then any bot present will take over keeping duties?

If you make sure that the bot leaves goal during celebrations then the keeper position won't be hogged by the bot too.
