madjimmie Posted October 7 Posted October 7 Hey guys, Had a thought, I know, dangerous. How hard is it to change the bot's name? could we potentially change the bot's name to match holidays/festivities? Thought it might be fun to have like "pumpkin head" or similar as a bots name at halloween, and change their colors, but if it's difficult to rename them that's not a good idea? thanks, Mad P.S. happy to help pick or vote on numbers/names, or work on a script to implement for this if anyone would like that help? 4 1 2 Quote
Caipirinha Posted October 7 Posted October 7 (edited) Yeah, that would be fun! I can imagine a bot named Ghostface running around with a knife 😱. That would actually scare the heck out of me! 😄 Edited October 7 by Caipirinha 8 1 Quote
White Raven Posted October 7 Posted October 7 Actually that is a good idea, we can use more creative names for bots Kinda tired of those vanilla boring ones like Halfbaked, Oysterhead, Flint.... 4 Quote

madjimmie Posted October 25 Author Posted October 25 Curious if this is something we can look at, doesn't seem to be any concerns or negative comments, @Cocanation and @!MX what do you think of this? @United Blood we could try on S1? 2 Quote

I´m not an expert on technical side, however, about bot´s subject, i think only @daredevil can change them up. 1 Quote
madjimmie Posted October 25 Author Posted October 25 (edited) Well, I'm no expert either, but from what I'm seeing, we can change them at "Open the autoexec.gm script for the game you wish to customize names for. For ET, the file is called et_autoexec.gm," and edit the list or put it like this, I'm going to write one that could be copied in? Names["GhostFace"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Frankenstein"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Jason"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Freddy Krugar"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Hanibal Lecter"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Dracula"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Pumpkin Head"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Jack-o-Lantern"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Sweeney Todd"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Mike Myers"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Ben Dover"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["R.I.P."] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Megan"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Jigsaw"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Carrie"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Pazuzu"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Joker"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Two Face"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Lex Luther"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Green Goblin"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Ghost"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Skeleton"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Mummy"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Pumpkin"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Trick-Or-Treat"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Banshee"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Skeleton Sally"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Zombie Zoe"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Winifred Sanderson"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Howling Helen"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Nearly Headless Nick"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Grave Digger"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Creepy Carl"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Morticia Adams"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["Wednesday Adams"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["=F|A=Barnie"] = "def_bot.gm"; Names["=F|A=Blackeye"] = "def_bot.gm"; source: https://omnibot-enemy-territory.fandom.com/wiki/Faqomnibot#How_do_I_customize_the_bots_names_?

For me, the only suitable option would be if someone from our clan or community created a map that includes a commemoration, similar to what has been done in other clans.

I love the idea of seasonal bot names! If we change the maps by season (i.e. Christmas) why shouldn't we dress the bots up too? It's their server too after all! 1 Quote
