Editing the BGBot Profiles & Behaviour

[Vociferate]

I am unsure of how to edit the profiles in the BGBot - and change the behaviours.

For example - when the bot gets into the BG stands there like a spastic for a random amount of time. Right in the middle of the spawning area. Is it possible to add some erradic behaviour?

I see that there are hotspots in the profiles for all the BG's - if I change these how will it effect the bot? Is it best to leave them alone?

you cannot change the bots logic. changing the hotspots will effect where it runs to for certain things, but its best to leave them alone.

Is it possible to have the characters take a different route in BGs then?

I am scanning through the code I know how to edit, but this is a bit out of my league of making standard grind - kill - mail style profile.

I am running the bot and more often than not I am seeing another bot in the same BG run the same path I am running. I am very interested in changing that. Can someone at least point me in the right direction to achieve this? Even just a: "Open filename.wtfomg - and change hotspots X Y Z"

Is that too much trouble?

you can add blackspots to change its path a bit, but really its best to leave it alone.

So by adding a blacklist, will change the routing?

Is there any documentation about that will explain the black spots? I understand its a place the bot avoids, but I don't know much else.

Is it a basic distance or perimeter that it avoids? Or is it that 'exact' spot?
Sorry for the such basic questions.

Try googling bgfarmer/millz

Hmmm looks really good. Might have a look at that further, thank you woofie.
