Hi.

I know this might be weird and risky for me to ask, but is it OK if the server statistics on my cs:go server shows the bots as being bots? Also, it says 1 player, 9 bots.

Here's a screenshot of what I'm talking about: i.imgur.com/Ir2bbm7.jpg

Apparently it doesn't raise the average, because it clearly shows there's only 1 player on the server. These bots are not from a 3rd party plugin, they are directly from the game engine.

Is this OK? Please don't ban the IP. I'm showing this to you so that you may guide me on this. If it's not OK, I'll remove the bots, no problem.

It's just it doesn't appear to affect the server average.
Thank you!

And if you look at the TOP 10 Players List, it only registers the real players.
I really hope this is OK.

Tha ks!

I have seen servers running 12 bots or more for months.
It is perfectly normal to have 4 bots on Quake 3 servers; This is to give real players 'even' teams to play when they are alone on the server.
1 vs 1 against a bot is pretty dull let's face it


Read Burn's post here; http://www.gametracker.com/forums/forum.php?site=1&thread=75205

Note the line;
1) More than 3 fake players / undetected bots. (excessive idlers can count too)

'undetected' is the key word here.
If your bots are detected as bots, then there should be no problems.
Bots detected as bots do not get counted towards your 'on-line players average'.
I am sure Burn will correct me if any part of that is not true.

Thanks for the info. I assumed the "undetected" word is key, but I want to make double aure I don't get my server banned. In cs:go, the bost only show up when a player enters the server.

I hope Burn gives me good news

Detected bots have never counted for rank.

So I'm good?
