Does this work?

#1 Try it out - then ask yourself if it works?

#2 Sorry couldnt test it, ok it doesnt work correct. It just adds the bot to team #1 not #2. How can I fix that?

thx,
Chris

#3 You almost answered your own question. You made a simple copy & paste error.

Quote: {
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}
else
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}

Both lines add the player to team 1. One of these needs to be changed to joinTeam(2).

#4 Ooops :) Thx. But it still doesnt work. They alway go in team #1. I changed it now that way, but it didnt help:

Quote:
function serverCmdAddBot(%client) {
$bots[$botCounter] = aiAddPlayer("Bot" @ $botCounter);
if ($botCounter == 1 || 3 || 5 || 7 || 9 || 11 || 13 || 15 ||17)
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}
else
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(2);
}
MissionCleanup.add($bots[$botCounter]);
$botCounter++;
}

#5 Do you know what values $botCounter contains? There's a chance that the value returned from aiAddPlayer isn't a number as low as 1 or 3.

Quote:
$botCounter = 0;
function serverCmdAddBot(%client) {
$bots[$botCounter] = aiAddPlayer("Bot" @ $botCounter);
echo ("botcounter = " @ $bots[$botCounter]);
if ($Team1.numPlayers >= $Team2.numPlayers)
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}
else
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}
MissionCleanup.add($bots[$botCounter]);
$botCounter++;
}

#6 Thx for that tip. The first bot starts with 1603 the second has 1610 then 1617 and so on. I made this script but it still doesnt work, but I think this should work. Does someone see the mistake, cause I dont.

Quote:
function serverCmdAddBot(%client) {
$bots[$botCounter] = aiAddPlayer("Bot" @ $botCounter);
echo ("botcounter = " @ $bots[$botCounter]);
if ($bots[$botCounter] == 1603 || 1617 || 1631 || 1645 || 1659 || 1673 || 1687 || 1701)
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(1);
}
else
{
$bots[$botCOunter].joinTeam(2);
}
MissionCleanup.add($bots[$botCounter]);
$botCounter++;
}

#7 I don't think you can assume that the first bot's number will be 1603. It's a very bad idea to hard code this into the scripts.

You need to write some code to determine if a bot's number is odd or even and then choose a team accordingly.

#8 I restarted the game a few times and tested it on 2 computers, the first was always 1603. Is it this what you mean?

#9 Yes it is.

#10 why not do a little model math? if # of bots added to the game is a model of 2 put them on the second team else toss them on the first team.

after you aiAddPlayer(blahahaha)
do something like
$botCount++

if $botCount % 2 then assign to the second team else first team the slacker.

#11 *give himself a headnut* Sure, thats simple and works great:

Quote:
$botCounter = 0;
$botCount = 0;
function serverCmdAddBot(%client) {
$bots[$botCounter] = aiAddPlayer("Bot" @ $botCounter);
echo ("botcounter = " @ $bots[$botCounter]);
if ($botCount % 2)
{
$bots[$botCounter].joinTeam(1);
}
else
{
$bots[$botCounter].joinTeam(2);
}
MissionCleanup.add($bots[$botCounter]);
$botCounter++;
$botCount++;
}

Thx to all of you, maybe Ill come back to this thread when I have more question to the bots. ;)

#12 By the way, the reason your old script was always adding the bots to team one is because of the if statement

if ($bots[$botCounter] == 1603 || 1617 || 1631 || 1645 || 1659 || 1673 || 1687 || 1701)

This will always be true regardless of the value of "$bots[$botCounter]" because 1617 or, 1631, etc. is always true. It would have to be changed to the below to work as expected -- although hard coding these numbers will not work for the a different mission file. The way you have it coded now should be perfect for all cases.

if ($bots[$botCounter] == 1603 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1617 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1631 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1645 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1659 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1673 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1687 || 
    $bots[$botCounter] == 1701)

#13 Thx, now I understand it, it was a too simple mistake. *give himself a headnut again*
