the mod is awesome, but not what I was looking for, I would like the bots to be able to talk to each other sometimes, joke around, or like Ellis telling another story about his friend Keith through the vocalizer. It's cool that they can write in the chat, but it's not a vocalizer and that's disappointing.

This sounds like an awesome project! Adding more dialogue options for bots can really enhance the immersion and fun factor in the game. I'm glad you're working on expanding the list of events that trigger bot chatter. It would be cool if you could also add some random chit-chat between bots during downtime, like when they're waiting for players to catch up or during safe room breaks. This could make the experience even more dynamic and engaging. Keep up the great work! 👍

yeah, lost your mind.

. wait... are you the one from, zombie survival in the gamemodes sandbox or not???

fucking LOVE this mod, if you could display your favorite mods on your profile, id choose this one, wish it was even more fleshed out

can you make kill lines customisable to special infected and tank only?
and customisable lines to other events

Wait nvm, it work

I already tried it 3 times but the bot chatter don't appear. Did i miss something?

@bamiloe
That’s odd, that shouldn’t happen….I will look into it when I get the chance.

Just tried to add a new line on a different section and it crashed my game,you cant add more and there can only a certain amount of lines then, if anyone else is courious!

alright, thanks!

@bamiloe
As long as you follow the format of the other lines already in the kill_lines.txt correctly. Everything should be just fine.

awesome mod! it makes the bots feel more alive, in a good way.
will you add more lines the bots can say? i made them say different stuff like instead of 'i need help' they say 'i need a cigarette' lmao.
for example. in the lines file in the ems folder, if i add a completely new line will it work, or will the mod not work if i do that?

@dolphin
Its really easy actually, just remove the bot checks and it should work on human players as well.

Hello, thanks for this mod! Was wondering if there's a way to trigger the kill lines without bots as well

@Destructible Dummy
I will do my best to make sure this addon is still compatible with left 4 bots and left 4 bots 2

Will this be updated to the newest l4bots2, I've seen a reply feature added the settings?

damn

@Ralsei (The Goofster)
There is currently no support for any other lines. In the next major update I will expose more game events for the addon, but I don't think I will add support for when the bot fires since the event is called multiple times and can CRASH the game in some cases.

How do I edit lines that aren't kill lines. I wanna make the bots say "Moutain Dew King Can (473ML) whenever their shot

It's okay, I know you guys worked very hard on this.
And, Just in case if anyone wants to do the same as what I done... Add "- " at the head of the lines and it won't looked very weird.

@Vertin
The issue you were experiencing has something to do with how the game reads files and I don’t know if I can fix it on my side. At least you found a workaround for the issue.

Alright, I've got it. I added a halfwidth-forms at the head of each lines and the � won't show up again. I don't know what causes this, but... It's okay now.
Also if you guys want a Chinese port for this mod I'll be glad to help ;)

So I tried to translate the kill lines into Chinese by myself without programming(cause I'm bad at this). The mod works "almost" normally, the game didn't crash and the bots can still talk.
The only thing weird is, when bots says a line, the first word of this line will appear as 3 question mark, like this ���. But, the other words in the lines won't appear like this.
For example: the original line I wrote is "我狙击掉了狙击手！"("I sniped the sniper!"), and when it appeared in the game, it showed as "���狙击掉了狙击手！"
This game itself 100% supports Chinese and that's why I'm confused on this problem. I'll try to solve this problem by doing with txt file, and I will be appreciated if you guys can help with the code.

Wooo

They says after kill 1 random zombie
But good work anyway
better to do "say after kill 20-30 zombies

@< WellDar >
I'm afraid you can't right now, the chance is hard-coded into the addon

How to change chance?

@< WellDar >
They have the chance to say something after killing a zombie, do you happen to have any mods that increases the default zombie count. If not, I might have to decrease the chances a bot will say something.

Amazing love it

map?

I love this! It helps liven up the experience. Forever keeping it. Thank you for posting this!

Odd, it shouldn’t change the color of their name. As long as it doesn’t affect gameplay it should be fine.

Thank you! My game had a small hiccup at first but it's working great! I'm curious about the color change...is that because of the forced name change or is that something you did specifically? And again thank you! Now all I'm missing is the closed captions and uh...that's been a bit of a journey so far lol

Here is a link to the file in my google drive:

I'd appreciate that!

I actually have made a personal addon that does this. Once I get home I can give you the vpk file and you can change the names in their.

I know nothing of scripting haha. I'm assuming I can copy and paste that into any mod I have but is it only possible to change all the names to 1 name? Like can I add another thing like "If PlayerName = Nick (SetFakeClientConVarValue(player, "name", "John Doe"))? I have Notepad++ if that helps.

You have to force the bots to change their names through the console:
local player = null;
while(player = Entities.FindByClassname(player, "player"))
{
if(IsPlayerABot(player) && player.IsSurvivor())
{
SetFakeClientConVarValue(player, "name", "Ruby Eye");
}
What this does is change every bots name into Ruby Eye, but this will only change the names of the bots when they use the chat or you use the status command.

Do note this is VScript and not a console command.

I guess I'll put this here...does anyone know a way to change the bots' names in the chat box? I've done it with the display names but I don't know how to change the chat box ones.

How to confuse randoms. This :v

@8FPS
I will reduce the sent message rate

@Michipatata
I will see what I can do

can you do that the bots can talk with their character like coach or any survivor?
make them laugh or say "No, yes" sometime when you say any word with your character?
srry for my bad english

They talk way too often, but other than that, makes singleplayer w/ bots a bit less lonely. Maybe reduce the rate a bit.

Pretty good addon! Makes the bots a little more realistic.

I'm gonna work on allowing more events to have customization. Hope you folks enjoy the update!
:)

I'm afraid not, the way smilzo got custom settings to work for their addon is very complex and out of my current ability for VScript. I'm always accepting suggestions for more lines to add-into the addon. You can post them in Suggestions.
