DNIWEbot runs out and dies fast

[Kweejee]

The mods are nice, and the bot is kinda meh. It runs my tanks out a lot and dies rather fast. Is there a way to manually refine the settings or is "start" the only option we have?

yes there is, actually there is a configuration file, you have to manually configure many settings, for instance what you are looking for is AttackRatio, default is 100 so the bot will attack all the time, like a fool...set it to 49 for example and the bot will more likely take a defensive position (that you can set yourself) and shoot what is approaching.

Another interesting setting is numEnemyForOnAttack which tells the bot to attack if the enemy team is reduced to this number of tank. Problem is if you set 4 and your bot is the only one, it will try to attack 4 survivng tanks alone, would be fun but a loss 100% of the time, bot isn't doing very well, not as good as a poor player.

Good bit of info, thanks a lot! Had no idea there was a config file, did some tweaking and the bot runs much much more smooth now. Thanks!

Can anyone post their settings that gives them a good win rate and survive rate? I've tried tweaking the settings and my stats haven't improved. It would be much appreciated!
