Does anyone know if it's possible to test bots in PIE or is cooking and playing in the main game the only way? 
Level Design Bots in PIE?
- Thread starter 11_HARLEY_11
- Start date
Have you tried opening the console when in PIE and restart the map with ?minplayers=16
I have not tried it but it might work...

ROEngine.INI
[UnrealEd.EditorEngine]
InEditorGameURLOptions=?minplayers=16?maxplayers=32
I've tested that in house on the released (shipping) SDK and it works. Naturally, you can change the numbers to suit your needs.
NOTE: You cannot commit changes to .INI files with the game/editor running.

Thanks Swag!
So once I've put 'InEditorGameURLOptions=?minplayers=16?maxplayers=32' in the ROEngine.INI do I write anything in the console as well?
Coz I tried this but didn't get any bots.
edit: Also is there a way to copy the whole WorldInfo settings from one map to another?

It's not working? I will test again when I get to work on Monday.UPDATE:
I tested it just now, and it indeed DID work with the shipping (released) RO2 SDK through Steam.
I opened ROEngine.INI from my home directory (ROGame/Config/ROEngine.INI)
Old Value
Code:
[UnrealEd.EditorEngine]
InEditorGameURLOptions=
Code:
[UnrealEd.EditorEngine]
InEditorGameURLOptions=?minplayers=16?maxplayers=32 -logI then opened the editor, loaded my map, pressed the play in window button in the editor. After I spawned in, 7 more bots spawned in while I waited for the start timer to finish. Then we (the bots and I) went to do our thang.
Again, I cannot stress enough, have the game and editor CLOSED when doing this. I can get a couple editors going at a time and forget to close them when I am updating INI files and loose it all after I close the editor.

Yay! works for me.
it must have been the '-log' bit at the end of the line as I didn't have that last time.
Thanks heaps, this is going to save so much time!
p.s Is it possible to copy the WorldInfo settings from one map to another? Gawd I'm lazy!

No, unfortunately. For whatever reason, it won't go.

Gleedo, are bots working for you in the main game? and are you editing the right ROEngine file in Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Config
I think I was editing the wrong one at some point. If you have edited the wrong one make sure you've removed the line...maybe it's conflicting with the right one.

Yes.
Yes.
I have only edited the one in my documents but I will check the other one just in case. I also had the missing -log part but that made no difference.

This may be a blasphemous suggestion, but try deleting ALL you RO*.INI files, let the editor recreate them (just open the editor), close the editor , then modify the ROEngine.INI file.
, then modify the ROEngine.INI file.

Nope, doesn't work over here after nuking config files and regenerating them. Did add the url options of course

Not sure if this is relevant, but looking at my ROEngine.ini it has the 'InEditorGameURLOptions=?minplayers=16?maxplayers=32' written twice. Once under the [UnrealEd.EditorEngine] section and then again in the section below that called [UnrealEd.UnrealEdEngine]
This 2nd line must get created when I run the editor (?) as I didn't write that in there. But might be worth putting it in and see what happens. Its at the very bottom of that section. It's a long shot I know.
