Command Mode!
« on: August 19, 2006, 11:33:06 am »
So what if I love bots? :P

Command Mode: if there are bots present on your team and this 'special' type of game mode (as in among Realistic and Survival) is checked, Soldat becomes like a sports game; when you die, instead of waiting to respawn you immediately assume control of any friendly bot nearest to your corpse. Push run left & run right simultaneously to switch to another random bot. Doesn't work for DM, PM, RM, people in Spectator mode, or any botless match.

no that wouldn't make sense at all, a bot that just gets an m79 out of nowhere.

I would think that the bot's name does not change, and i dont think i would ever use this at all.

You don't know that :P

I didn't think of name changes, but whatever weapon the bot you assume has, you take, so it'd also help with practicing with weapons you're not normally comfortable with.

Hmm...a sort of survival mode.  I like it.

Only anime shows I've felt any interest in over the years are Pokemon (original TV series) and various hentai.
so clearly jgrp is a goddamn anime connoisseur. his opinion might as well be law here.

sounds like your putting some strategy into Soldat.  it sounds good for just reading it

Nice! I'd play it, I spend a LOT of time with bots, especially when waiting for dodgeball players.

well, it sounds like a good idea, but it might not be used very much.  An idea ive had runnin for the last little bit is a mode where u can actually give bot's orders.  Nothing too elaborate, just stuff like "Defend Flag"  "Capture Flag"  "Camp with Barret" or stuff like that.

Haha. I just realized, from Sotija's post, that this would be excellent for zombie matches; a group of players is on one team, and the server hoster is on his own team with a bunch of Chainsaw-toting zombies ;D

That would be sweet. XD

that Kaine said i've thinked about too :P
it should be sweet to make bots listening to commandos.

<Ivarska>I need backup!
<Sniper>OK, on my way!

or if it's many bots:

<Ivarska>Sniper, wait here for my command!
<Sniper>OK, sir!

or what? ;D

What about making it part of the command script, like "/botname command".  It could be more resonable that way.

nice to see people agree with me.  but what would the difficulty level be for programming it?? also it would need to be programed so that bots on the other team don't react.
