Roger bots without loading a whole client.

Post by Yrogirg »

Is there a way to run autopilot bots without loading the whole client? Am i right, that if I minimize client with F4 it won't use resources for 3D render?

Autopilot bots won't drive in death physics, will they?

Autopilot is part of the client it can only be run with the client.

Maybe you weren't ;)

You could always modify the code to tell the bots not to go towards death objects. I suggest you only do this if it's for a private game. If this was on a public server that actually allowed bots I'm sure it would be considered cheating.
