Hi, Using Mint 14 cinnamon 64bt, SpringLobby 0.168

I select single player, load the Altair_crossing_v3 map, select Zero-k v1.1.3.6 under the game tab, hit add bot, select AAI 0.9, hit add bot - but they are allways a "ally" so i can never play a game against the computer - Its driving me nutz!!!! what am i doing wrong??

There should be some way to make them an enemy. Try clicking on the enemy.

Also use CAI to play with bots, the other bots are not supported. They come with the engine and show up in the options for every game even though they now only work with a few games. They are likely to crash or sit there doing nothing.

maybe??

Ive tried it with a different bot setup, i went for > KAIK 0.13 this time and where it did start the game with another bot this time, he just stood there and done nothing ( no building ), he did defend himself when i attacked, but after i blew him up the game didn't end?

Can u advise what a CAI bot is n how it makes a difference?

CAI is the bot written for Zero-K to play Zero-K. The others are not, do not use them.

The other ones come with the engine and are not supported: IE they are likely to break. They use a generic set of behaviours and expectations about the functioning of a game on the Spring engine that do not necessarily apply to Zero-K.
