Slothman/Slothbot

Slothbot

This is a resource designed to allow scripts or gamemodes to insert a ped into the game that roughly simulates combat with a player.

FEATURES:

Teamplay: The bot is capable of identifying friend from foe

Map Navigation: When the bot is placed in a map that has suitable pathways marked out (see below on how to do that) the bot will navigate the map, seeking out enemies. Without pathways, a bot can still think for itself, but wont move around as profficiently.

Cooperation: Bots can automatically team up with teammates (either player or bot) by meeting up with them and sticking together

Advanced movement: If theres obstacles blocking a bot's path, the bot will attempt to get around or over it instead of just walking into a wall for eternity

Gamemode/Script integration: This script provides several functions and events to allow other resources to see and control what the bot's are doing, and even take control of certain behaviour.
