Hooked Bot, "<botname> timed out" bot kick

Alan · 2005-02-18 18:27:15 UTC

Hi, i am working on a hooked bot Library for ET.

The bots are kicked by the server after 4 minutes, and i haven’t found why !
Can you help me please.

Some images:

The “/addubot” command

Here is the bot.

After 4 minutes the bot is kicked !

The func that adds Bots:

void AddBot ( ... ) {
[...]

	clientNum = trap_BotAllocateClient( 0 );	// Arnout: 0 means no prefered clientslot
	bot = gEnts + clientNum;
	bot->r.svFlags |= SVF_BOT;
	bot->inuse = qtrue;

	ubotuserinfo = "\\cg_etVersion\\Enemy Territory, ET 2.56\\cg_uinfo\\13 0 30\\g_password\
one\\cl_guid\\2CF49DB75739144100DC3B8D6E0BC160\\cl_punkbuster\\1\\cl_anonymous\\0\\snaps\\20\\rate\\25000\
ame\\ubotname\\cl_wwwDownload\\1\\protocol\\83\\qport\\262\\challenge\\0\\ip\\localhost\0";

	trap_SetUserinfo( clientNum, ubotuserinfo );

	if( s = ClientConnect( clientNum, qtrue, qfalse ) ) {
		G_Printf( S_COLOR_RED "Unable to add bot: %s
", s );
		return;
	}
	
	ClientBegin (clientNum);

	BotSendConsoleCommand( from_clientNum, clientNum, EXEC_APPEND, "obj", "obj -1" );
	BotSendConsoleCommand( from_clientNum, clientNum, EXEC_APPEND, "team", "team r 0 3 2" );
	return; 
}

BotSendConsoleCommand( ) is used to send “obj” and “team” commands with the Bot clientNum.

And the Console messages :
Blue: /addubot command
Red: the bot is kicked

Is this because they dont sent any commands so they are kicked for unactivity?

Alan · 2005-02-18 22:17:27 UTC

No, unfortunately it isn’t.
I catch my commands and send it to all the bots (it is easier to debug), so the bots can fire, jump, etc …

The inactivity code is :

qboolean ClientInactivityTimer( gclient_t *client ) {
[...]
		trap_DropClient(client - level.clients, "Dropped due to inactivity", 0 );

And the problem comes from the 3D engine, not from the qagame dll

^3Ubot v0.3: vmMain (GAME_CLIENT_DISCONNECT, BOT=1)

Alan · 2005-02-18 22:39:21 UTC

It seems to be an “inactivity timer” driven by the server (3D engine), not by the game.

The flag bot->r.svFlags |= SVF_BOT; is important. If i don’t put it, the ping of the bot is 999.

I try to say to the server that bots are bots, and to the game that bots are human players.
Perhaps the server is waiting something from a cgame that doesn’t exist because he thinks that the bot is an human player.

Do you have some questions or ideas ?
Thanks

Alan · 2005-02-19 14:04:24 UTC

Have you ever seen 20 bots jumping at the same time ?

The “timed out” virus begin

Now they are all kicked.

zl1corvette · 2005-02-19 15:44:58 UTC

Now they are all kicked.

Alan · 2005-02-23 09:46:09 UTC

I still don’t know what is wrong, but i have found a solution.
The GAME_CLIENT_DISCONNECT signal isn’t sent to the game, and that works.

Let’s go

Timed out …

They are still in the game.

Radical but efficient.

Jaquboss · 2005-02-23 12:02:43 UTC

Yeah , it is radical , but good job , hovewer how this will work with disconecting players ?

Alan · 2005-02-23 13:39:51 UTC

GAME_CLIENT_DISCONNECT has the clientNum in argument. I compare it with the clientNum of my bots and send the signal if it isn’t a bot.
