Bots & Super Pickups

[SpY]

In your opinion, should bots have access to Super Pickups (Double Damage, Super Shield's, Redeemer's, etc.)?

[MindRiot]

Yes.

You can assign an extra cost value to the pickup.

For example, attributing 500 to the Supershield should prevent a bot from grabbing the shield every time its available.

By assigning variable extra cost values to each powerup, you can persuade bots to seek less powerful pickups more often than the more powerful ones.

Sweet, thanks for the tip.

The reason I asked is because I originally placed a rocket launcher and ammo on a raised terrace and the bots never went to go up and get it. I decided to switch the rocket launcher out with a redeemer, since the location is semi-hidden. Well, the bots started hogging the redeemer.

I'll change the value if I can find it in the properties, in the weapons base I assume.
