First, you should download the improved bots and botroutes from DDS available here:
http://www.perkwerx.com/DDS/downloads.htm)
I use my own customized bots, but the DDS I-bots are much better than the stock bots. The new botroutes are a big improvement as well.
If you want to change the bot names, you must use WinZip and extract the file bots.txt from the DDS_Ibots.pk3. It will extract in a folder called botfiles, keep it in there. Open bots.txt and you'll see this:
{
name "Alora"
model alora
color1 0
color2 0
saber1 "single_4"
saber2 "single_4"
personality /botfiles/Alora.jkb
}
{
name "Cultist"
model cultist
color1 0
color2 0
saber1 "single_9"
saber2 "none"
personality /botfiles/Cultist.jkb
}
etc.
For each bot, add a line called funname, then use tabs (not spaces), then enter the new name in quotation marks. You can use ^number for colors as usual, like this:
{
name "Alora"
funname "^3Bad ^1Hair ^7Day"
model alora
color1 0
color2 0
saber1 "single_4"
saber2 "single_4"
personality /botfiles/Alora.jkb
}
{
name "Cultist"
funname "^6Queer Eye for the Jedi"
model cultist
color1 0
color2 0
saber1 "single_9"
saber2 "none"
personality /botfiles/Cultist.jkb
}
Repeat for all the bots. Then drag the botfiles folder with the bots.txt file back into the DDS_Ibots.pk3 file, and select Freshen files. Upload the ibots and botroute files to your server and restart the server.
The bots will come and go according to the bot_minplayers value, and will have the funnames you added. To add a bot manually, use the name, not the funname.
