Above is a code written in I think C++ for Call of Duty and it's a way to get bots in multiplayer

what I need help with is as you can see they only choose (Axis: Kar98k)(Allies: Springfield) I would like them to choose a gun out of random guns :o eg allies: springfield thompson etc axis: Kar98k scoped and kar98k not scoped

You can change the gun that they spawn with but not make them choose a gun randomly I've tried for hours to figure it out, not as simple as I assumed :rolleyes:

*yawn*
 
You will probably have to use a Random Array type function but we need to know what language its in..
 
Have you tried looking at the source code of other games based on the quake 3 engine such as RTCW or Quake 3 itself?

{
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");

ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], "springfield_mp");

}

ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], "thompson_mp");
}
}
}

Tried that aswell didn't even appear that time :P

it's probably the most simplest thing
 
LMAO I acually figured it out had to remove one space

}
else
{
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], "springfield_mp");
<---------------------------------remove
}
{
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], "thompson_mp");
}
}

RTCW Don't have built in bots like CoD so I can't get help from that although When I get quake 3 I'll surely look into that :)

LOL you'll get it one day

I hope :P
 
Okay I was working through some code... There are some variables in there that are not defined, at least in the piece of code you posted. And I am not sure if it is C++ ..


But in C++ there is a function called rand() It allows you to randomly pick an interger. I was thinking if you save that to a variable and then test either by case or if/then...



Code: 
[/color]
[color=blue]if(isPlayer(ent[i]))
{[/color]
 
[color=black]str aWeapons1 = "springfield_mp";[/color]
[color=black]str aWeapons2 = "thompson_mp";[/color]
[color=black]str aWeapons3 = "kar98k_mp";[/color]
 
[color=black]for(iControl = 0; iControl < 2 ; iControl++)
{
int iRand=rand(3);
sWeapon= "aWeapons" & iRand;[/color]
[color=black]if (iControl =0)[/color]
[color=blue]{[/color]
[color=blue]ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "axis");
wait 0.5;
ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_axis"], [/color][color=red]sWeapon[/color][color=blue]);
}[/color]
[color=blue]else
{
ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], [/color][color=red]sWeapon[/color][color=blue]);
 
}
[/color][color=blue]}[/color]
[color=blue]}[/color]
 
[color=black]





Or I am way off....


edit:
and also I am not sure if you can concatonate a string and an int into a string...

eh.. I doubt it will work.. maybe it will spark something in someone and they will figure itout

well that seemed pretty close but remember allies can't use axis weapons and vice verca

thanks for your help :)

[color=black]

hmm....
 
I thought that was it for sure, but in the console it's saying bad syntax and failing to compile the script so maybe it's an actual builtscript with the quake 3 engine?? in other words maybe the quake 3 engine made there own code similar to c++

I think you are right.

Other than the string and int being assigned to a string.. the C++ code seemed fine... logic and syntax wise... but yeah either that or the rand() function needed a c++ library <stdlib.h> ..I figured it would have been included.... guess that means you have to manually go in and change the weapons everytime you want different guns... lol
 
case "allies":
case "axis":
case "autoassign":
if(response == "autoassign")
{
teams[0] = "allies";
teams[1] = "axis";
response = teams[randomInt(2)];

spawnpointname = "mp_deathmatch_intermission";
spawnpoints = getentarray(spawnpointname, "classname");
spawnpoint = maps\mp\gametypes\_spawnlogic::getSpawnpoint_Random(spawnpoints);

Theres two randoms found in the script maybe I could use them to somehow to randomize the guns hmmmmm
 
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], randomint("springfield_mp", "thompson_mp"));

I put that randomint there and the even number bots (american) went to spectator lol
 
5 edits later:

lol okay I think I might have it


Code: 
addBotClients()
{
wait 5;
 
for(;;)
{
if(getCvarInt("scr_numbots") > 0)
break;
wait 1;
}
 
iNumBots = getCvarInt("scr_numbots");
for(i = 0; i < iNumBots; i++)
{
ent[i] = addtestclient();
wait 0.5;
 
if(isPlayer(ent[i]))
{
if(i & 1)
{
[color=red]weapons[0] = "AXIS WEAPON";
weapons[1] = "AXIS WEAPON";
[/color][color=blue]ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "axis");
wait 0.5;
ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_axis"], [/color][color=red]weapons[randomInt(2)][/color][color=blue]);
}[/color]
[color=blue]else
{[/color]
[color=blue][color=red]weapons[0] = "ALLIES WEAPON";
weapons[1] = "ALLIES WEAPON";
[/color][/color]
[color=blue]ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_team"], "allies");
wait 0.5;
ent[i] notify("menuresponse", game["menu_weapon_allies"], [/color][color=red]weapons[randomInt(2)][/color][color=blue]);
 
}
[/color]}
}
}


... I keep spelling weapon wrong... wtf ???
