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.

EVENTS

onBotFindEnemy paremeters: (enemy) - the enemy that the bot has seen source - the bot THIS EVENT CAN BE CANCELLED

onBotDied source = the bot that died

onBotSpawned source = the bot that spawned

onBotFollow paremeters: (leader) - the player or bot that the bot is following source - the bot

FUNCTIONS

spawnBot(posX, posY, posZ, rotation, skin, interior, dimension, team, weapon, mode, modesubject) everything is somewhat self explanitory except for: mode - what mode thebot will spawn in the options are:

"hunting" - travel pathways untill finding an enemy or teammate "waiting" - stand still untill an enemy of teammate comes into view "guarding" - the bot will attack any enemy that comes within sight, but not move from its spawn position "following" - the bot will follow a player or bot while attacking enemies (requires modesubject) "chasing" - the bot will attack an anemy bot or player (requires modesubject)

modesubject - when mode is "following" or "chasing" the modesubject will be the player or bot that the source bot sill be following/chasing
