Creating a new bot character

Each bot character includes the following files:

[name]_c.c file with the characteristics
[name]_t.c file with ichats used to initiate a chat
[name]_w.c file with weapon fuzzy weights used for weapon selection
[name]_i.c file with item fuzzy weights used for goal evaluation

These files are stored in the 'botfiles/bots' sub-folder.

A scripts/[name].bot file has to be added with a new bot definition before the new bot character can be loaded. Multiple bot definitions can be stored in a .bot file. Quake3 will load all bot definitions from all *.bot files in the scripts/ sub-folder. Up to 1024 bots are loaded from all available scripts/*.bot files. A bot definition in a .bot file is created as follows:

{

name		[bot name]
funname		[bot fun name]
model		[modelname][/skinname]
aifile		bots/[name]_c.c

}

[bot name] is replaced by the name of the new bot. This name is used with the 'addbot' console command.
[bot fun name] is replaced by a name with colors or spaces for the new bot. The funname field is optional.
[modelname] is replaced by the name of the model the new bot should use.
[/skinname] is replaced by the name of the skin the new bot should use. If there's no skin name provided the default skin is used.
bots/[name]_c.c is a reference to the file with the characteristics of the new bot.

This file contains the characteristics of the bot. References to the files [name]_t.c, [name]_w.c and [name]_i.c are included with these characteristics.

This file contains the chat lines the bot will use to initiate a chat.

This file contains the weapon fuzzy relations/weights used for weapon selection.

This file contains the item fuzzy relations/weights used for goal evaluation.
