PlayerBots

Adds ai controlled teammates to your game.

Features

• Playerbots can be spawned as regular summons or as players. They spawn as summons by default, but can but spawned as players by changing SpawnAsPlayers in the config.
• Each bot has its own owner that it follows.
• Bots spawned as players can pick up items, show up on the scoreboard, influence map player scaling, and all the other stuff that happens when there are multiple people.
• Only the host needs to have this mod installed, however, if the bots are spawned as summons, nameplates will not shown on clients.

How to Spawn Bots

You can spawn bots by opening your console (ctrl + alt + tilda) and running the command addbot [survivor name OR survivor index] [amount] or addrandombot [amount]. All arguements are optional and have a default value if they are not given. Example: addbot engineer 5 will spawn 5 engineers that follow you.

If you have friends in your lobby that you want to spawn bots for, add their slot number in the lobby after the rest of the arguements. Example: addbot engineer 5 3 will spawn 5 engineers for the 3rd player in the lobby.

Alternatively, you can set the amount of bots spawned at the beginning of a run in the config. These bots will default to having the host as their master.

Installation

Put Playerbots.dll into your /BepInEx/plugins folder.
