Bots to fight against

Hi Guys,
I've been searching through GG.com and although there is quite a bit of stuff out there on BOTS, my main problem is that I dont just need 1 type of bot in my game.
There are shop keepers, civilians and bots who fight.

The main problem is how advanced can we make the AI for our bots.
The civilians have to know how to run away from fire (and not run towards it),
some bots wont open fire on certain player types but will on others, bots also have to be able to track players and also retreat when they are injured.

Path PLanning and AI, man thats a lot of hard work.
So my question is, as GG and everyone else gets better and further everyday, how far are we with getting BOTs into the game? intelligent bots mind, and bots who can move independantly.

Thanks guys and keep up the great work out there, this place is why this community is growing faster than most.
