All humans on one team. Uneven teams mutator.

[RattleSN4K3]

You could use NotifyLogin and NotifyLogout to add/remove bots automatically.

[TKBS]

that's just a normal setting for the server bot:human ratio 1:2

[RattleSN4K3]

PlayerVsBots as a limit of 16 players. So it can only be Xvs16 (X=real player count).

BotRatio works but as said it doesn't allow more players than 16 in the opposing team.

i would appreciate some more assistance here. Just really lost. All i want is a mutator that adds 2 bots to the blue team (disabling team autobalancing) w/ correct AI. I have broken AI now and no extra bots.

[RattleSN4K3]

2 bots per 1 player? Or just 2 bots total? Are you asking for a complete working code? This might needs several playtests (as seen in the previous code which broke the AI code). However - as suggested - you can start with the Notify functions and add/remove bots when a player connects:

function InitMutator(string Options, out string ErrorMessage)
{
    super.InitMutator(Options, ErrorMessage);
    if (UTGame(WorldInfo.Game) != none)
    {
         UTGame(WorldInfo.Game).DesiredPlayerCount = 0; // remove the desired bot count on start
         UTGame(WorldInfo.Game).bPlayersVsBots = true; // disabling autobalance in TeamGames
    }
}

function NotifyLogin(Controller NewPlayer)
{
    local UTGame G;
    super.NotifyLogin(NewPlayer);

    G = UTGame(WorldInfo.Game);
    if (G != none && PlayerController(NewPlayer) != none)
    {
        // add 2 bots to blue team
        G.AddBot("", true, 1);
        G.AddBot("", true, 1);
    }
}

function NotifyLogout(Controller Exiting)
{
    local UTGame G;
    local UTBot B;
    local array<UTBot> Bs;
    local int i;

    super.NotifyLogout(Exiting);

    G = UTGame(WorldInfo.Game);
    if (G != none && PlayerController(Exiting) != none)
    {
        // remove 2 random bots
        foreach WorldInfo.AllControllers(class'UTBot', B)
        {
            Bs.AddItem(B);
        }

        if (Bs.Length > 0)
        {
            i = Rand(Bs.Length);
            G.KillBot(Bs[i]);
            Bs.Remove(i, 1);
        }
        
        if (Bs.Length > 0)
        {
            i = Rand(Bs.Length);
            G.KillBot(Bs[i]);
            Bs.Remove(i, 1);
        }
    }
}

You can extend the code quite easily and make it configurable. I did not run any tests so i'm not sure if it works.

[euchreplayer23]

It did not work as intended. What I wanted was selecting 8 total players in the select screen. Then adding a mutator that adds 2 blue bots, so the end result would be 4 red (1human 3bots) vs 6 blue (6 bots or 8 etc...).

I tried adding more, it didn't work the notify login stuff I can add much later. Always 1 vs 2 a sit is now.
G.AddBot("", true, 1);
G.AddBot("", true, 1);
G.AddBot("", true, 1);
G.AddBot("", true, 1);

Thank you for the help.

[RattleSN4K3]

"4 red (1human 3bots)" bots in the same team as humans?

It sounds like all you want is what BotRatio is doing.

var float BotRatio;

function InitMutator(string Options, out string ErrorMessage)
{
    local UTGame G;
    super.InitMutator(Options, ErrorMessage);

    G = UTGame(WorldInfo.Game);
    if (G == none) return;

    G.BotRatio = BotRatio;
    G.bPlayersVsBots = (G.BotRatio > 0);
}

defaultproperties
{
    BotRatio=1.5
}

[euchreplayer23]

Nope, that doesn't work either.

BotRatio=1.5 equals u vs 1 bot
BotRatio=5 equals u+2 red bots vs 3 blue bots

Can I do a team bot ratio? So if red team has 4 human/bots then blue team would have 8 bots.

[RattleSN4K3]

That would be a BotRatio 2.0. The logic of BotRatio only counts bots.

[euchreplayer23]

Been at this mutator for months. I don't get it. Programming is an art, and I am not an artist. All fails here. Hopefully someone will pick this up. I will keep trying.

[TKBS]

i did not know it was left unsolved sorry, but anything to do with online/ replication i think wormbo has tutorials, i would help if i could.

- i am sure (100%) that i have played on servers that had all players on red.

[RattleSN4K3]

Okay, going to finish this one. euchreplayer23, please write everything down in short words what you want/this mutator shoud do. And please also write a short comprehension about the problems you had with the previous code snippets.

[euchreplayer23]

I want a mutator that can add more bots to the opposite/bot team. So I can have a 4 (bots or players) red team vs a 8 bot blue team. No console commands.

In a dream situation, I would like all humans on the same team vs all bots on the blue team. TKBS mentioned above your post that this was done somewhere b4(?) ex. Red(2 players + 2 bots) vs Blue (4 or more bots).

Did nothing.

function InitMutator(string Options, out string ErrorMessage)
{
    local UTGame G;
    super.InitMutator(Options, ErrorMessage);

    G = UTGame(WorldInfo.Game);
    if (G == none) return;

    G.BotRatio = BotRatio;
    G.bPlayersVsBots = (G.BotRatio > 0);
}

defaultproperties
{
    BotRatio=1.5
}

AI messed up. Bots in CTF/Greed don't leave the flagstand and WAR they move a little but eventually just stand where they spawn. They still attack when you are close by but nothing else. Do not pick up skulls or flags.

class VsBotsMutator extends UTMutator;

function InitMutator(string Options, out string ErrorMessage)
{
    local UTTeamGame G;
    
    super.InitMutator(Options, ErrorMessage);
    
    G = UTTeamGame(WorldInfo.Game);
    if (G != none)
    {
        // We need to force red team to be filled
        // in order to bypass team balancing with bots
        G.bForceAllRed = true;
        G.bCustomBots = true;
    }
}

function bool AllowChangeTeam(Controller Other, out int num, bool bNewTeam)
{
    if (AIController(Other) != none)
        num = 1;
    else
        num = 0;

    return super.AllowChangeTeam(Other, num, bNewTeam);
}

function NotifyLogin(Controller NewPlayer)
{
    local TeamInfo NewTeam;
    local int ForceTeamIndex;
    local UTBot B;

    super.NotifyLogin(NewPlayer);

    if (WorldInfo.Game.bTeamGame && WorldInfo.GRI.Teams.Length > 1 && UTTeamGame(WorldInfo.Game) != none)
    {
        ForceTeamIndex = INDEX_NONE;
        if (AIController(NewPlayer) != none)
            ForceTeamIndex = 1;
        else if (PlayerController(NewPlayer) != none)
            ForceTeamIndex = 0;

        if (ForceTeamIndex != INDEX_NONE && NewPlayer.PlayerReplicationInfo != none && 
            NewPlayer.PlayerReplicationInfo.Team != none && NewPlayer.PlayerReplicationInfo.Team.TeamIndex != ForceTeamIndex)
        {
            NewTeam = WorldInfo.GRI.Teams[ForceTeamIndex];
            UTTeamGame(WorldInfo.Game).SetTeam(NewPlayer, UTTeamInfo(NewTeam), true);
        }

        // manually fix balancing bots as we forced red 
        if (ForceTeamIndex == 0)
        {
            foreach WorldInfo.AllControllers(class'UTBot', B)
            {
                if (WorldInfo.Game.NumBots + WorldInfo.Game.NumPlayers > UTGame(WorldInfo.Game).DesiredPlayerCount)
                {
                    B.Destroy();
                }
                break;
            }
        }
    }
}

Per my IM i thought your were going to fix the AI in the Mutant gametype, so that the bots would actively hunt for the "mutant" instead of attacking every one (non-mutant). I guess that was not you, never mind.

[RattleSN4K3]

Okay. Going to try something new from scratch. Also, have you been testing MapMixer (the mutator for instance)? The menu allows to setup such games.

Let me summarize:
- Possible to have uneven teams
- Preferable player on 1 side bots on the other
- For every player there should be X bots

Such list must be very simple and not in conflict (which some of your statements are; not clear enough). It is hard to guess what you really want.

[euchreplayer23]

Mapmixer? I will find it and check it out.

- Possible to have uneven teams, YES
- Preferable player on 1 side bots on the other, YES but I want some bots on my team.
- For every player there should be X bots, not necessarily. Would be cool though.


See attached pic from the campaign mode of UT3. I just want to do the below with a mutator in any GT i select in the menu screen (CTF or WAR etc). Just 2 or more extra blue bots.
