Botskills anyone?

As part of planning a new singleplayer campaign I wrote a little script to get an overview of all the bots of OA. I parse just the main characterfile and not any item or weapon weights files they will look for when traveling through a map.

The most interesting values are listed in this table although I only used the botfiles I found in the SVN. Seems it's not uptodate as bots like assassin are missing. The machinegun as favourite weapon marks more than one weapon as highly skilled.

So what do we learn?

Most of the bots are pretty much the same without any individual character/skills. Most of 'em were created by just copy and paste. For now it doesn't matter which bot will be on what map as there is no difference. A few bots are harder but that's it.



I'm tinkering with a todo list to improve singleplayer further.
