Why do you want to set a "fake ping" anyway? And you do know what ping means right?

Currently, this is not possible. Besides, fighting against bots in a server means the ping is the same as your ping.

lol pings on bots will make them lag and warp unexpectedly. Bots are part of a /LAN connection which disallows and disables incoming bot server latency.

He obviously wants to make clanmatches with bots, which have perfect barrett aim.

You could always write a script that modifies OnPlayerDamage to make just 1 or 2% of shots from bots do no damage.

I think he wants this more along the lines of making a bot and not telling people it is a bot and making it have ping so it doesn't look like a bot. I say no.

I was thinking something more along the lines of making a server seem populated. Or it would be cool to script something in like an RPG server that makes copies of you that look the same with the same ping.

I was thinking something more along the lines of making a server seem populated.

That is also what I'm thinking of, and it's something I ABSOLUTELY hate. I expect to come into a server with actual human players (if that is what I'm looking for), and not play halfway and only realize that those "players" are just stupid bots.

And people may use this to make fake screenies etc.

Or it would be cool to script something in like an RPG server that makes copies of you that look the same with the same ping.
It'd be nice to see these cloning scripts (I think it already exists too). But there is no need to add a fake ping. You already can't tell a human and bot apart by appearance or even name, why make it even harder with ping? It's more troublesome in fact, if the admin finds that the player or bot is problematic, then how can he tell the bot and the player apart? He may even end up kicking the wrong person.

There isn't a no bots filter? I could've sworn there was. Need a no scripts filter asap though...

There IS a no-bot filter, but I acknowledge that there are some bot games that are indeed fun (I like some zombie games, for instance), that's why I don't turn it on.

Even if the bots aren't annoying in this case, I reckon the "fake ping" is a pointless thing to add.

A script/no script filter should be made though.
