| 20:53.21 | MICH | Hello, I have short question. It is possible to choose team for bots (option -solo)? |

| 20:59.33 | WarPig | Robots are added to teams at random. |
| 21:02.22 | MICH | There isn't any possibility to override this setting? |
| 21:03.11 | MICH | I will play me vs. 5 robots, by allways I have to play with teammatebots. |
| 21:08.06 | WarPig | As far as I know, there is no way to override this behaviour. |
| 21:08.55 | WarPig | If you have programming skills, you could possibly write a plugin that handles it. |
| 21:09.03 | temporalD | one possibility would be to use 5 instances of the client - and make them all autopilot (with the 9 key) instead of -solo bots |
| 21:09.34 | temporalD | "brute force bots" :) - they would be a bit smarter as well |
| 21:10.36 | WarPig | Thats a workable solution. So autopilot bots use a different brain than -solo bots? I always thought they were the same. |
| 21:11.01 | temporalD | I haven't looked at code - but the behavior is certainly differnet |
| 21:11.13 | WarPig | INteresting. |
| 21:12.32 | temporalD | IIRC bzrobots was a GSOC project - that needs additional attention |
| 21:12.48 | MICH | 5 instances of client? How strong pc I should have to use this solution? |
| 21:13.16 | temporalD | once you start the bot-clients - turn the sound off for each then minimize the window |

| 21:13.33 | temporalD | you will have to experiment to see how it runs on your system |

| 21:18.18 | MICH | How I could minimize bzflag under KDE? |
| 21:18.51 | WarPig | F1 should put it in a window |
| 21:18.58 | temporalD | F4 is minimize - fairly sure it will work for you too |
| 21:20.04 | MICH | Thanks - F4. |
| 21:20.43 | temporalD | youbet |
| 21:22.08 | blast007 | MICH: you could also run a server that had team limits. set it up so the team you join only has 1 slot, and set -autoTeam. then the -solo bots would get forced to the other team. |
| 21:22.47 | blast007 | and when you minimize other clients (on windows, at least) it automatically mutes the sound |
| 21:23.04 | temporalD | not for OSX :) |
| 21:23.24 | blast007 | the -solo bots have better navigation and aiming code - but they can't jump |
| 21:23.51 | blast007 | and the autopilot bots drink too much cafinated soda and sometimes forget that they can jump over some obstacles ;) |
| 21:24.56 | MICH | I have problem, after minimizing client sends "not responding". |
| 21:25.04 | blast007 | odd |
| 21:25.10 | blast007 | you minized with the F4 key? |
| 21:25.13 | MICH | Yes |
| 21:25.23 | blast007 | and you had autopilot turned on? |
| 21:25.32 | MICH | Yes |
| 21:25.33 | blast007 | cuz otherwise the clients will pause |
| 21:25.38 | blast007 | hmm |
| 21:25.58 | blast007 | what OS are you on? |
