Dousea: It's true... I'll look for a solution now

Starkkz has written Pagyra: What would be actually fun is to train bots based on player actions via neural networks. Hador: I've also planned to do something like that some time ago! I even started writing a player recording script (prior to the analyzing and learning process) however due to the lack of time and maybe, motivation, I halted the project. I may give it a look again in a distant future.. I've also thought about discarding the neural network and let the bot decide what to do with training but then I realized that there's a limited amount resources (performance wise) and that it would take a lot of time to make it comparable or superior to CS2D's current A.I. Dousea: Your project seems promising! I'd love to use your A.I. on my servers! But, by the way, are you planning to make them be able to deal with buildings (for example, destroying an enemy turret wisely or heading back to dispensers when HP is depleted) Dousea: Sounds like you have interested people, you should open a repository and work on there. Starkkz: I don't use repositories too often because well internet in here is bad.. real bad if you ask me. 
Another factor is I always change my code everytime I have time, and it's real tiring if I need to update it at that time.. but I'll look into it. _Yank: Of course! It's part of the plans. Thanks for the kind words. It motivated me well.

game's "bot_weapons" and "bot_skill". Highly skilled bots would always grenades, never buy secondary slot, and switch to knife at startround. Contrawise for the lowly skilled bots. Any ideas regarding to this area so the bots could be smarter at buying weapons? module("ClassName")

ClassName.__index = ClassName
function ClassName:new(arg1, arg2, etc)

Starkkz: Thanks for the code but I already know how to create class-looking tables, but for the sake of simplicity and credibility for people that already the libraries for that particular area, I use a library. It doesn't really hurt, does it? It does its job wonderfully so I could focus more on the surface (AI stuff). Also my code would be prettier to see. 
the bamboozle: Unfortunately, NPCs aren't controllable with Lua unlike bots so this isn't possible. DC for it, indeed developing an AI system is hard however there are some flaws in the bot's behaviour which I find it just weird. Mora: Absolutely. It's part of the plans after all. (shit I didn't notice your post, my bad) GeoB99: Sure, but it takes time to create a "tree" because there're a lot of cases that could happen in this game. And I'm aware of that problem and want to address that in the near future. Dousea has written TimeQuesT: NICE. Love to see explanations like that. Well I'll look into the "drop and pick up" pattern. But is it a good choice for the bots to depend on team's average money? TimeQuesT for his beloved sound library, it really helps a lot. Don't worry, these sounds aren't classes, rather I use local table for a slight faster access:...
local sounds = {}
...
function Sound.emit(...)
sounds[#sounds + 1] = {...}
end
... Starkkz has written Dousea has written Avo: Yeah, I've been thinking about that lately. I guess I need to host it after all, huh? But I don't know how to use repository's capability to its fullest.. so I'll try to make it really simple. Avo: Sure. Will put my hands on it later.
