Hello

I am one of those affected by this mod and how to “identify bots.”

Now he and Mr. St0rmshadow sent an email, I requesting explanations.

‘m On the list of Mr. St0rmshadow and also a replay where I do nothing and I suspect dubbed as bot and I get on the list of Mr. St0rmshadow

I have very bad stats, I know, but I share with my brother has 8 and plays like he wants and let him. It’s a game, not real life

Just say it this way, you could ban to people who are not bots, but bad players. And this will affect nevativamente WG as money.

So extra care when people say bot, a replay if you are not anything.

regards

Ignore my previous post. Null routed eu-comm.de on my PC so it will fail to “update” so it load the botdata.json file that’s on my res_mods folder and I appear a bot. :D

So yeah, it’s working but the update mechanism is a bit dumb, meaning the file is fetched EVERY battle. The local botdata.json should also be overwritten.

hi,

got this but doesn’t seem to be working.

My python.log file says:
/——————————————————————————\

but the botdata.json isn’t updated as I see only 4 nicks that this comes with. Even tried with adding my own nick respecting the json and still no results. What’s wrong? :(

2 weeks ago I was plaing against player Nimrod86 (EU server). I think he was using bot, but don’t have replay to support my claim. Maybe we can use some other replays from wotreplays as evidence?

And if that happens, it’s only added to some long forgotten text file of illegal mods and everything continues as if nothing happened.

So, instead of this, people should be rewarded for breaking the game EULA? It’s not like every reported case would go directly to that list.

This is even better “stat” than wn rating to instantly judge team mates reliability and hopefully less lemming trains following bots to idiotic places.
