Would it be possible to add bots to the mod? So, when everybody leaves someone could still enjoy playing against the Marines as the obscurity. Could this mod be intergrated with a bot mod like Pezbot?

There are bots....they have no brains ( /scr_testclients 5 )

No, we will not be implementing smart bots into Obscurity. They are only enabled for our testing purposes when people are not around to test with.

Just think about the sorts of AI that would need to be scripted for it. You are virtually invisible remember....

Perhaps one day when a stand alone Obscurity game is released.

Only possible implementation of smart bots in cod4 is shocking to say the least. Don't get me wrong, pezbot is fantastic considering what they were working with, but cod4 really just doesn't support it. I remember testing pezbot once and as soon as I had more than like 10 bots in the server started lagging up heaps. Considering this and the fact that obs already uses twice the bandwidth and processing power of normal cod, it's not happening.

I don't mind the lag, I can run 5 pezbots without lag, I'm only wanting to use them on the allies side not the obs side and I don't mind that they don't see me, thats the point, its to mess with marines and give players a chance to learn the gadgets of the obs, so is it possible to add pezbot and how?

Which leads me to another question, if I want to host a server what command do I use to set 5 bots on the allies side only?

The bots won't react to locational damage and will just spasm around shooting randomly, but you can use them to test things out.

Yeah I did that but they didn't do anything, how would I add pezbot to obscurity? Oh and whats the command to add the testclients to the allies side?

If you execute the cfg correctly, then the bots should balance based on the ratio.

You can also use the /changeteam command to move them or yourself around as desired.

You cannot combine pezbot with the obscurity mod.
