Hey Blade when is the beta or the final version of your bots comming out cause before you had said that the bots were to be released either monday or sunday of this week and in this thread you said "I guess they will be included next month." Whats up with that? BTW thnx anyway.:)

I think I see the problem... it could be that the directory name is case sensitive... make sure you use lower case letters (esf, not ESF).
My esf folder is named ESF, so i dont think thats the problem.

The bots are actully good, but there is things that needs a fix:

1.The bots react to slow sometimes. I can charge a spirit bomb to full power and fire with out they have don any thing.

2. I dont know if this is the bots fault, but when they die, the diamon stays and they will still be on the scouter.

3. Freeza, keeps using kienzan without charging it(he may have trown it, but just stand there holding his hand in the air), and he never uses fingerbeam as mentioned.

Ok, thanks for posting your comments!

Well, there aren't much commands for the bot... just addbot and kick i guess.

The attacks that aren't used will be included in the next release, which is not that far off, about a month or so. I'll also increase melee usage a bit.

By the way, the fact that bots move while transforming isn't because of a bug in the ESF code, but because they haven't been told that they shouldn't be able to move while transforming. Sounds weird huh? :D

d00d i dont know why these people are getting such high expectations of more commands if it wasn't in the readme and that this is only alpha its not the final version rite? the real one should be released something like next week or something

Hey Blade you said you couldn't change the difficulty level it is possible by typing botskill x (x is number from 1-5).And the kick command doesn't work.

Well I've noticed 4 bugs with these bots. The first 1 is that they don't really seem to grasp the concept of recharging they're ki, they keep trying to attack with beams even when they're running on empty . #2 is that they seem to be able to move while transforming, example: one time I noticed one of them swooping towards me and it was in the middle of transforming

The 3rd one I've noticed with 2 characters so I'm pretty sure that it is a bug. Anyway when I was in a block p.s. with Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon he would move and fire another SBC at me while I was still blocking the first. The same thing happend with Goku's Kameha.

The 4th doesn't seem to happen very often, but sometimes when I add a bot it's dormant. I can see the character (usually goku) but he's not moving, or making any attempts at attacking, I can't lock on to him for a melee, and when I attack with a beam I can kill him but he comes back the same also after he takes a hit I see errors about not being able to play the "pain" sounds popping up in the top left of my screen.

That's all, hope you can fix them soon.

they recharge alrite just sometimes in the wrong times
maybe u can also make it so sometimes they do 75% in one beam maybe 20% in one and sometimes make it so they notice beams comming at them so they auto fire and sometimes 100% in another beam kind of thing?

Sometimes the bots will equip Sensu Beans when I'm beating them up, regardless of the fact they have no Sensu Beans.

Well, in the case of the SBC, you're supposed to be able to fire it and leave, same with big bang. THough, that really shouldn't happen with the Kamehameha, soo... maybe it is a bug. But definitely not with the SBC or BB if it happens to you.

yea bots seem to transform wen they av PL and wen i kill them usually they come back instantly with Transformation without transforming but maybe i should look at em more and see if they transform but it does look like they come out already transformed

Allright last night I played with Goku and when adding a bot i got Goku i kicked him and added another bot this one just stood still and barely noticed me he also seemed to tink that i'm one of the walls in a certain level he just keeped shooting at it and locking them for melee isn't allways working.And also sometimes they do melees and flying around while transforming and they don't charge their ki if they do they will do nothing else but charging ki.And they don't use melee enough if they would it would make it more exiting and usefull for training before playing online.And sometimes when they shoot a beam attack at you it just spins around you without changing direction and stops untill their ki is emty and their sitting ducks.
