[REL] SlothBot an AI fighting Bot for MTA

[DakiLLa]

Btw, I've noticed one thing: if there are no players on your server and you start resource 'slothbot' and your bots-resource (to spawn some bots on the map) through a console, the bots won't be moving even if you will walk near them.

The trick to get rid of this is simple: restart resource if you are the first joined player.

addEventHandler( 'onPlayerJoin', root, function()
if #getElementsByType( 'player' ) == 1 then
restartResource( getResourceFromName( 'slothbot' ) );
end;
end);

Anybody had such problem ?

if someone could make a gui for freeroam

*facepalm*

yeah, thers possibly a problem with the way the bots resume activity when a player returns. ill look into it. restarting the resource is probably a bad idea, cause it could cause other trouble.

I noticed that when I use the exported function of creating a Bot, it creates me 3 bots, and I want only 1. This is a problem of your resource, of you did it like that? Thanks, Slothman.

Eh, I thought that you have already fixed that problem ?

[Slothman]

It must be your script. the bot will only be created 1 time. but if you are the person who had the trouble with spawning bots using "onResourceStart", then you need to make sure you don't have it set to happen when EVERY resource starts.

[directshot]

How can i start the bot? wenn i start the resource with the console, its nothing working?

musst i use a command or so?

[Xierra]

You need to make a script which creates the slothbot.

The slothbot doesn't mean they spawn, but they're the source of these bots.

Use export functions to make it.

[Xierra]

Please don't go offtopic like that, just PM me for that.

(Thanks to slothman for learning a "rule" in a forum)

Using this script on mini-missions server and works like a charm, very good indeed.

[Xierra]

Putting the bot to your missions? I think slothman would be happy to see that.

[Fabio(GNR)]

I tested it, and it's pretty good it would be nice if someone could create a GUI, for spawning, team skins weapons etc. really hard i think, but i really suck at GUI and scripting Nice script!!

[Xierra]

Slothman, looks like the Wiki link which you put it on the MTA Community is not working, so I might give you the working link:

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Slothman/Slothbot

Edit this on the Community.

[Slothman]

thanks, i thought those pages were gone forever!

k i tried something with the example spawn script, this is the code:

It's about spawnbot1, it says bad argument @ Getelementinterior and dimension, string defined function, what am i doing wrong?? Sorry for asking, but i would really like bodyguards etc.

EDIT: it starts now, but doesnt set it in team GNR, new code:

  
  
function Spawnbot1 (source) 
local dimen = getElementDimension (source) 
local inter = getElementInterior (source) 
local x,y,z = getElementPosition (source) 
local rot= 90 
local skin=220 
local interior=inter 
local dimension=dimen 
local team=GNR 
local weapon=26 
local mode= "guarding" 
local modesubject=source 
call (getResourceFromName("slothbot"), "spawnBot", x, y+5, z, rot, skin-9, interior, dimension, team, weapon, mode, modesubject) 
call (getResourceFromName("slothbot"), "spawnBot", x, y+7, z, rot, skin-9, interior, dimension, team, weapon+2, mode, modesubject) 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("spawnbot", Spawnbot1) 
  
function Spawnbot2 (source) 
local x,y,z = getElementPosition (source) 
local rot= 90 
local skin=22 
local interior=inter 
local dimension=dimen 
local team=GNR 
local weapon=26 
local mode= "guarding" 
local modesubject=source 
call (getResourceFromName("slothbot"), "spawnBot", x, y+5, z, rot, skin, interior, dimension, team, weapon, mode, modesubject) 
call (getResourceFromName("slothbot"), "spawnBot", x, y+7, z, rot, skin, interior, dimension, team, weapon+2, mode, modesubject) 
end 
  
addCommandHandler("spawnbot2", Spawnbot2) 

Thanks for any help

btw yes i am team GNR i set it in admin panel

EDIT2: lolz sorry it works now, i should have looked it trough better before posting

EDIT3: 1 question, i would like to make it respawn after death, how to use onbotwasted, im kinda a noob

coul i do this: addEventHandler ( onBotWasted, Name bot, function ) will that work?

[izstas]

I love it Is there any progress with it?

EDIT: Is your Zombies resource has better synchronization or AI? If it is, can you port it to SlothBot?

[CrazyDude]

Hey Slothman. I making some gamemode using your resource, and i have one problem.

I made paths in Map Editor, than i connected them together.

In gamemode, i spawn bots at this paths, but bots just staying on the one place, they only start move when some player running at them

Hi this resource is great and i am a newbie in lua.

I want to give the bot m4

  
call (getResourceFromName("Slothbot"), "spawnBot", 2031.7695,1008.1705,10.5474+10, 10) 
call (getResourceFromName("Slothbot"), "setBotWeapon", [b]WHAT DO I HAVE TO PUT HERE[/b], 31) 
  

What do i have to put there?

[SDK]

The weapon id

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Weapons

M4 = 356

[[MTA]revenngeR]

The weapon id

https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Weapons

M4 = 356

I don't need help finding weapon id, but i need help with that code.

And no, the id is 31

[SDK]

Learn to read, I told you it needs the weapon ID there.

You should learn

bool setBotWeapon( element theBot, float weapon) 
  

element theBot

[SDK]

That was confusing, the call returns the bot element.

bot = call (getResourceFromName("Slothbot"), "spawnBot", 2031.7695,1008.1705,10.5474+10, 10) 
call (getResourceFromName("Slothbot"), "setBotWeapon", bot, 31)
