TSGK server bots? |
|
Hi there,
I'm just about finished setting up a dedicated HL2 deathmatch server on Ubuntu Linux...the only thing missing I'd really like to do is have a "presence bot" so that my server doesn't show up empty when people do searches for HL. Every time I join TSGK server VIII, even when it's empty of real players there is one "fake" player in there that...how do you do that? Please share!
Also I believe in some of your servers I've played against bots when there wasn't many people in the game. Where do you get those bots? I can't find them anywhere!
Thanks so much!

Rublis_TSGK and Osiris_TSGK are both bots, but they are programmed to talk only about sex and hotdogs.

Well I just joined server XXV but noticed it was Team Deathmatch, and it had one spectator called "TSGK.com Source TV XXV." Maybe that's just a function of Team Deathmatch? Either way, if you can provide a bit more detail and/or downloads (if available) I would be grateful.

One other thing...I just ran my server as Team Deathmatch but I don't see how I can make the server itself a "spectator" so the game always has one player in it. Can you help?

its called Source TV and is a bot so people can watch the game on the server without personally joining it. http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Source_TV

The Commands to activate are:
tv_enable 1
tv_name Whatever Name you want
Add this Text to your Server.cfg File and the SourceTV Bot will be activated after the next Mapchange.

Awesome dudes, thanks so much. I got the Hurrikhan bots going when I'm trying to attract traffic to the server, and the TV thing going to keep it alive when the server's empty. Great resources, and super info...thanks again!
