problem with bot commands...

I'm not sure if it's been mentioned, and frankly I wouldn't begin to know what keywords to search for so I figured I'd mention it.

when I play with the CUT2 mutator, I lose all bot commands, the menu is still bound in my config, but hitting the key does nothing.

also all my speach binds are null and void, again they're still bound, but activating them does nothing. since I play offline with bots alot it's quite frustrating because i can't communicate quickly with teamates, or give my team bots commands.

oooops, just remembered, one other thing, the sniper rifle and ERDW aren't hitscan.......was this done on purpose? on large wide open maps, you have to lead targets by large amounts to get a hit with the sniper or ERDW.

Do you have any other mutators running when you can't use bot commands, binds?

As for the sniper, its a bullet, not an instant hit. I'm not certain of the ERDW...

I've had both ChoasUT alone, and with other mutators, and same effect, no bot commands available at all. as soon as I turn off ChaosUT, all my bot commands and speach binds work again with no problems.

oh and thanks for the speedy reply

ERDW isn't instant, but it's pretty close.

Check thru your stuff and see if you have the same key bound to 2 different things.

Ok I just searched my User.ini, I have two keys bound for the speechmenutoggle both y and v are bound, neither key is bound to anything else in the ini.

with CUT2 turned off both work fine for calling up the speach menu, with CUT2 on, neither works.

Y is the primary (default bind) for the speech menu, and in the GUI I added V as the secondary bind for it, since it's closer to my movement keys.

I'll try removing v and see if for some reason that helps..... brb

ARGH!!

ok I set the speech menu to just the default bind, reverified that no other key was bound for the same thing, and fired up a game with bots, still no speech binds and no bot commands, however now it doesn't work with or without the CUT2 mutator.

I have no idea what's going on, but it's starting to look like it's my system and not CUT2.

sorry for the trouble, if I figure it out I'll post again so that if it's CUT2 related you can take a look at it, but until then I have no idea why it's not working at all now.

reverified that no other key was bound for the same thing

Also make sure, that this one key (what is it..'v'?) is not bound to two seperate things.

I put my voice menu on the ctrl key (my v is my main grapple), and just now I tested this by putting something else on the ctrl key as well, further down the config, and then my voice menu did not work.

Good luck.

sorry for the false alarm, apparently CUT2 wasn't the problem, must have just been coincidence that my commands stopped working when I installed it.

I just removed everything and reinstalled UT2003, including all muts and mods and patches and fired up a CUT2 game and had my bot commands back. Guess I just had a glitch in UT2003.

thanks for the suggestions and quick responces though, it was appreciated

UT1 was like that too. Every so often it would cheese itself and you'd have to reinstall it and all your mods... It was annoying.
