Counter strike source bot AI is rather dumb

[Srcruls]

Just been practicing with bots and i realised they never split up. They all go the same way when heading for an objective; which makes it far too easy to get around the back of 10-15 bots and take them out.

A quick google search didnt help so im gonna ask here. Does anyone know a way to make the bots split up and take alternate paths to targets?

While it may be unpleasant,putting them on Expert usually does the trick.

There's a number of toggles in the bots that allow them to split up, ignore commands, backchat...

But they'll tend to learn on their own if they get bottlenecked.

Well ive been on normal, il give expert a try.

Also all those commands seem far too complicated. I just wondered if there was a program you can run in the background that would do it for you

Are they as bad as in DoD? The ones on my clan server spend entire games running into walls when they aren't shooting you through them.

AI is so funny.
