Post subject: Dodge-Bots
I need a plugin for a Dodge Bot, meaning it will do the turret and camp shoot you but i will have 3 in 1 box... i need the following settings:

- Announce of how long you lasted in the box (hours:minutes:sec)
- Announce of how many times you hit any of the 3 bots with a bomb
- Rankings of longest times, Rankings of most hits and an Overall Rank with the average.

If you need any more info for creating my bot please reply or contact me at solo-silhouette@rogers.com.

I'll look at it, since MERV already does some bullet turreting it shouldn't be too hard to modify it for bomb turreting.

I am really looking for the Ranking/Timer thing, the rest can be done manually

OK seeing if you hit the bot is hard, since MERV doesn't even detect when it is hit, and the server never sends any messages about it (damage is calculated client-side).
But, 1 and 3 aren't too hard. I'll see what I can do.

To make it easier for you, i will let u choose which method would be easier for you:

The Event Method

1. I announce for people to ?go dodge
2. Spec is locked
3. I discuss rules
4. Players who want to participate type "(something I think of)"
5. Players are unspecced in random order ONE by ONE
6. The Player dodges until he dies by one of 3 bots (A-B-C) and the bot that kills him/her announces amount of time (h:m:s) the player lasted before death
7. Player is specced into different freq.
8. Process is repeated until there is a winner who lasted the longest


OR

The Rank Method

1. Dodge-Bot-A announces (like elim, league)
2. Players enter arena and the Dodge-Bot-A announces "Dodge Will Begin in 10 seconds"
3. Players are all specced but one.
4. Player dodges until he dies by one of 3 dodge-bots (A-B-C) and the bot that kills him/her announces amount of time (h:m:s) the player lasted before death
5. Player is specced.
6. When all players that were participating have had their turn, The bot will announce and repeat process unless arena is empty.
7. Rankings of the longest times will be recorded
Note: For Rank Method, the game can begin with one player

Either method would be appreciated if you decide to help create the plugin. Thank you for your assistance biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

Ok, i've decided to just stay with the whole Dodge Event Method, All i need now is a plugin so that the Dodge-Bot does *arena (Player's Name) lasted (hours:minutes:sec). And that after one death the player is locked in spec
All times are -5 GMT
