Stefan, Creator of the Realbot was interviewed over at Realbot FanZone If ya interested in how these bots work or the future of realbot I suggest you check it out.

As the creator of Realbot, where do you envisage it's completion? What will Realbot be like in a years time for example?

I really can't tell. Its done when its done. Or when i just get sick and tired to work on RealBot every day.

What possessed you to write a Bot for counterstrike? Was it just the idea of making an Artifical Intelligence, or simply because you enjoyed the game Counterstrike?

I always wanted to create a bot, but, i didnt just had enough knowledge to program in C++, last year though i practiced a lot in C++ (due my previous projects), and therefor i saw a possibility to create a bot. I wanted to create an unwaypointed bot because thats a lot harder to do, then just with waypoints. The very first 'test' was even before Botman released its HPB Bot. I simply changed the Botman Bot Nr 9 code , so it could spawn in CS maps and with my navigation theory. Once the HPB Bot Alpha 2 came, i began working on RealBot, a REAL cs bot.
