  I have not tried to use RCBot yet, which is a fairly standard marine and alien bot. WhichBot however has been confirmed as incompatible with NS 2.0
  
  The guy that makes it has said that he will work to make it work ASAP <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

  Crash is right, Whichbot is not yet compatible, and I heavily doubt RCbot is either.
  
  When it's ready, a 2.0 compatible WhichBot will be at www.whichbot.com
  However, WhichBot covers the alien team only; you'll want to run metamod so that you can have RCbot for the marine team (it can do both, but WhichBot is more intelligent). Anyone got a link for RCbot? I'm too lazy to google...

  Here's a question:
  
  The other night I was playing on a server and I found out I was playing with bots because the bots were following me. I just wanted to know what bots are these and where I can find them. They seem like helper bots that team up with you. They would work great on my server. I tried WHICHBOT, but the server says "cannot find waypoint" for any of the maps I load. Then I tried, RCBOT. All they do is try to knife resources. VERY LAME! If someone knows about the bots im talking about or knows a way to make either WHICHBOT or RCBOT to work, please reply.
  
  Thanks! <!--emo&::skulk::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/skulk.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='skulk.gif'><!--endemo--> <!--emo&::gorge::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/pudgy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='pudgy.gif'><!--endemo-->

Yes, the marines DO try to knife resources, but they are very good at guarding equipment or going to waypoints.
  
  I cannot verify if RCBots will work with NS2.0.

  As far as I know, you've only got two options with NS...
  
  RCBot and Whichbot
  
  I don't think either works fully with 2.0 at the moment.
  
  Well, technically, Clamatius just announced a beta version of WB for 2.0, but it hasn't really been tested yet. If you are feeling daring, have a go.

  Flayra has not gave me the info required yet for NS 2, he gave me stuff for NS 1 a while back which was useful to determine what type structures where etc, but it seems some of that has changed now in NS 2, and marine bots think resource points are alien structures. I've tried getting the old bots to work with NS 2, and this is what they do, I'd rather wait for flayras info before I continue as it saves me a lot of work. Also because gorges have bilebombs etc now, weapons have changed and i dont know what fades have now instead/ or they still have them.
  
  So I'd rather continue working on getting my latest bot to work with it instead of my old one. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
