Newbie question about assigning start locations to bots

Post by dasein »

Hello!

I have a question about how to assign start locations to bots. It seems like TA Spring Lobby client uses the "Order" number to assign where everyone starts when the map is set to "Fixed."

I couldn't find a way to manipulate the Order number and since the order number for the AI bots are always incrementally greater than the last person who joined, if you add more than one AI, some of the AIs start on the same side as some of the human players.

Is there any way to fix this or am I missing something blindingly obvious? I tried searching around, but had a hard time finding the answer.

Thanks!

Welcome to Spring, enjoy your stay. Bots are the bastard, red-headed step-children of the Spring engine. Devs only support bots when the legions of mutated, deformed single-player freaks scream in their ears until they go deaf.

Using bots gives you herpes. AF and other AI-devs are actually the reincarnation of Typhoid Mary. Play against humans or we ship you off to a leper colony and forget you ever existed.

That is all.

if you need it only for single player, SpringLobby can let you drag bots in the minimap before the game start
