Title: Do bots work on Mac?
Post by: (Farmer)Azrael on May 13, 2008, 02:55:48 am
I recently downloaded a QVM with bot commands. But when I did !bot add bot1 aliens, the console returned a message saying "no more slots for bot". Do bots work on Mac? If not, is there any way of making them work?

P.S. Nobody say I'm asking two questions in one thread, because I'm really not.

Bots will not go into normal player slots, you have to set sv_privateclients to a number and then you can have that many bots. It doesn't matter if it's on a mac or not.

P.S. Nobody cares how many questions you ask in one thread.

Pie, you forgot to add the part where nothing works on Macs, and anything that does not follow that rule (and does work) sucks horribly.

I'm a Mac user myself, join the club (cult?)

OK thanks Superpie.  :)

P.S. I only said that in case some long-winded nitpicker came along and screwed me out for asking two questions in one thread...

P.P.S. Uh, Death On Ice... It is not that nothing works on Macs, it is just that almost no one makes anything for Macs... (Although of course you could say that's the same thing, and you would be right. :()

QVMs are platform independent. That's part of the point. The VM stands for virtual machine.

Farmer Azrael, I was kidding. Pie continuously makes fun of Macs, I was joking around. Tons of people make things for Mac. I think Mac software is of much higher quality, personally.

Umm... Wow, Death On Ice, you got me. ;D

Yes, I agree with you on the higher-quality thing. But let's not get into the very same argument that's been going on for a decade... Namely, the one of Macs vs. PCs.

Er... What Superpie said did work, but the bots got server command overflows after about thirty seconds. Then it caused everyone to spontaneously develop aimbots (at least, that's what they said was happening). Only after resetting sv_privateclients to 0 and removing all bot commands from all admin levels did the weirdness stop. I'm totally mystified...

A Mac is a PC.

A Mac is a PC.
???

Oh wait, if you mean PC as in "personal computer", I meant it in the more specific sense of a Windows computer. The sense almost everyone means when they say "PC" in a computer-related context.

PC != Windows
