yupnnbecuase normally it picks a random number between 1 & whatever you set for that cvar..nnif the number = 1 it will have them change class (tho they could always choose the same class again)nnso if you set it to 1, it will always come out as 1 and therefor always go thru the change class function..

Yep great plugin but I'm getting something strange happen on certain maps. On default maps like avalanche it works great but I've tried it on a couple of custom maps and most of the bots seem to spawn from the info_player_observer entity rather than the regular spawn points. One of the maps I've seen this happen on is dod_coffee. The only "alterations" I did to this map was add some more spawns but you can see from my pic that the bots spawn in the middle where the observer entity is located.rnrnrnrnThe other map I've seen this on is a map I converted to DoD, awp_city. As you can see from my pic once again the bots spawn in the middle where the info_player_observer entity is located. Some of the bots when killed, freeze or "shake" in place like a player that is lagging out.rnrnrnrnAny ideas why this happens? When I turn off the plugin in the plugins.ini the bots spawn normally.

hmm i have that happen occasionally without this plugin on.. I always figured it was a problem with the bots.. and it always does it with only axis bots for me..nnbut maybe im wrong.. but i dont see how this plugin would affect that.. all this is doing is changing classes

I had noticed this the other night on donner and didnt think much about the recent addition of this plugin.... Now I was playing charlie today and saw axis bots spawning on the beach... Removed plugin, restarted map and viola.... problem gone. I dont know how or why, but I did see it and I dont have the problem now.....rnrnI dunno man, I just try them out.....:eek:

Any luck in finding out anything about this plugin? I could really use this as I restrict some maps to only one or two chooseable classes and almost no bots join. Thanks! :D

nI read this can happen to anyone on any server when a map is played and there are simply not enough spawn points made for each team. Eventually players will spawn from the "observer" origin. nI wish I saved the text or the link to the information, it would be easier then simply believing me.... but it was found on www.steampowered.com while looking up a completely seperate issue...
