Description: Ever since B4v21 began we have had no way to use the newer v21 bots in v20, instead having to resort to the old "Bot Events" system which is rather buggy and restrictive. After putting a bunch of time debugging and trying to figure out why the newer bots wont work (due to changes within v21 itself) the v21 bot holes kinda live!

This isn't a perfect fix, as there are still many engine-level functions missing and deeper changes made for bots, but this gets us most of the way there. The missing functions are:

  • AIPlayer::setHeadAngle
  • AIPlayer::setHeadAngleSpeed
  • AIPlayer::setMoveTolerance
  • AIPlayer::getMoveTolerance
  • AIPlayer::setJetting
  • AIPlayer::isJetting
  • AIPlayer::setAimVector
  • AIPlayer::setMoveSlowdown
  • AIPlayer::setEngageDistance
If anyone can replicate these functions, please let us know! We can update this add-on to be more functional. Also I noticed that bots can't drive vehicles in v20 as well as they can in v21, and I've no idea what to do about that. There are also probably other differences that I haven't noticed or have forgotten to mention here.

WARNING!! The latest version of the B4v21 v20 game is required for these bot holes to function - make sure you have updated to at least v3.15.
Also, the bots only function properly in Slayer minigames and not regular minigames, so be sure to install Slayer too.
You need to also install various Bot_ add-ons to actually have bot bricks to place - you can find those on this addon repo. (or use the "v21 Bots" pack to download them all at once!)
