Mad Bots / Find Cover / Hot Potato Expanded

This mod contains my mutators to affect bot behaviors, loadouts, and difficulty. Just some stuff to spice up the bot interactions a bit. These should be fully functional with all mutators.

Mutator=HotPot

This is a modified form of the vanilla HotPotato mod. Explosives are dropped randomly by players upon death according to the ratios set in the config. BangDelay sets the delay before frags, ieds, and flash grenades will detonate. This gives players some time to book it before the explosion. All ratios must be &lt;= 1.0. If they sum to less than 1.0, then the remaining amount will be the probability that nothing is dropped upon a bot death. If you want grenades to always be dropped, then assure all ratios sum to 1.0. If bBotsOnly is set to true, then explosives will only be dropped by enemy bots in coop. By default the ratios will do the following:

Grenades dropped breakout:
20% - Molotovs
35% - M67 frags
15% - Smoke grenade
15% - IED
5% - Flash grenade
5% - Infantry triggered mine &lt;- This can be disabled
5% - no grenade dropped

<pre>[/MadBots/Mutators/HotPot.HotPot_C] FlameRatio=0.2 FragRatio=0.35 SmokeRatio=0.15 IEDRatio=0.15 FlashRatio=0.05 MineRatio=0.05

BangDelay=4 bBotsOnly=False bDisableDropOnKnife=True NoDropDamageThreshold=250 bEnableMine=True bDelayMine=False MinPlayerCount=2

Mutator=FindCover

You best be preparing for a beatdown. This mod opens the full arsenal of air support up to the enemy team and they will be periodically be bringing the thunder with no limits. This works by randomly waiting a certain period and then finding the largest cluster of players. If this cluster meets the criteria, then the enemy team will deploy any fire support on a point nearby. A separate ratio can be set for the chopper support and the additional fire support is disabled by default when capturing objectives and counters as the vanilla game already has fire support at these points. There are three thresholds that can be adjusted that determine if a support will be called in or not. The alive player ratio, the players cluster distance between, and the number of players clustered. Default config values are shown below:

<pre>[/MadBots/Mutators/FindCover.FindCover_C] bDisableDuringCapture=True RatioChopper=0.08 AliveRatioThreshold=0.2 DistanceThreshold=30 PlayerClusterThreshold=2 InitialDelay=45 MinTime=40 MaxTime=90 bEnableMessaging=True bUseChat=False PreMsg= PostMsg= StrafeOnObjectiveRatio=0.4 bTargetPlayer=False AccuracyMargin=15 RatioToObjective=0.3

bEnableA10=True bEnableArtillery=True bEnableSmoke=True bEnableBombs=True bEnableIED=True bEnableChemical=True bEnableMortar=True bEnableBarrage=True bEnableChoppers=True
