this is what i have in my shrikebot.cfg file:n

kick_all_bots 6nnmin_bots 0nmax_bots 8
nnand it makes it 8 players (including bots) then all bots leave when 6 real players are there..nni would assume for you that this should do what you want:n
kick_all_bots 16nnmin_bots 0nmax_bots 16

rnrnrnfill server will fill your server up to the number you put.rnmax_bots is the max number of bots in your server at 1 time.rnkick all bots will kick all of the bots when there's that number of humans there.

on mapchange the server is actually empty and so the bots join.. but as players actually connect to the server they should leave as normal... nn..if thats what you mean

The bots still work on linux you need some legacy libraries installed nowdays depending on which linux version you have, look in these forums.rnrnrnhttp://forums.bots-united.com/

Silly of me to think clicking on a "how to add bots on server" forum would actually provide me with instructions on how to do so. Literally the first post just says "nevermind!"..nnI have a dod linux server running AMX MOD X 1.8.2 and a few plugins, using WinSCP for directory navigation, and I have been scouring the internet looking for instructions on how to install sturmbot 1.6 (if that's even the suggested one?? idk) and all I can find are instructions on how to install bots locally for offline use. Any server instructions I find are ancient and outdated.

Shrikebot is the only one that I've ever gotten to work. Sturmbot, which has better AI than Shrikebot, was never finished and the source code was lost but I've heard of some people being able to get the existing version to kind of work.nnI don't play on servers with bots anymore, it's just not fun.

I agree, if I'm playing against bots then it's just not worth it. Sometimes though having a couple bots on a server is the difference between getting a real person or two to join or not. If a real person is on the server, then the odds of another real person joining and staying ramps up quite a bit. Ironically, the reason I want to add bots to my server is because I want real people on my server lol.rnrnI'm going to make a post right now about it.
