Summary
Up to 2 personal AI bots per player from a recruitment station no squad leader needed. Customize their gear, command them with a full bilingual (EN/IT) command menu.
Official Workshop description
BetterArma Bot System
Recruit your own AI soldiers without being a squad leader. Every player can take up to 2 bots (configurable) from a recruitment station; the bots live in
your personal group, separate from your squad.
== RECRUITMENT STATION ==
- New placeable object: Game Masters find it in the entity browser, or server owners can place it per map in the config.
- Recruit, customize, recover fallen bots or dismiss them, right at the table.
== CUSTOMIZE YOUR BOTS ==
- Dedicated menu with a rotating 3D preview: headgear, jacket, trousers, boots, vest, backpack, gloves, primary, pistol, launcher, grenades.
- Items come from your faction's arsenal; "Copy my loadout" in one click.
- Bots respawn with their saved loadout, with magazines, bandages and a shovel handed out automatically.
- Full gamepad support (D-pad, LB/RB, Start, right stick to rotate).
== COMMANDS ==
Works for everyone, not just squad leaders. Bilingual menu (English/Italian):
- Follow, move, hold, defend, attack, patrol, recon, regroup, retreat
- Stance and formation, observation post, smoke cover
- Get in / go by vehicle or on foot (also from the map), take the wheel, man a static weapon, escort my vehicle
- Build with shovels at construction sites (at player speed, no instant building)
- Resupply ammo, give me ammo, heal me, report, load/unload supplies, artillery
- Orders to all bots or to a single bot
- Silent mode: no shouting, no radio chatter
== TRAINING BY RANK ==
Bots get better as you rank up: Regular, Veteran (Corporal), Expert (Sergeant), Elite (Lieutenant).
== HUD AND MAP ==
- Compact HUD showing each bot's health and current task, plus the return timer for fallen bots.
- Your bots are marked on your map (visible only to you).
- Bots are named "Soldier of <your name>".
== SERVER OPTIONS ==
Config: $profile:BetterArma_BotSystem_config.json
- Bots per player and server-wide cap
- Supply cost to recruit / recover (Conflict)
- Return delay for fallen bots
- Whether bots count for base capture (off by default)
- Station positions per map, shovels and base character per faction
