Do TFBots work in Stop that Tank!?

Yes, STT has support for TFBots. On offensive they will escort the cart and deliver the Bomb during the Bomb Deploy mini-round. On defense they will attack the Tank and defend against the Bomb. There's even support to prevent giving TFBots troublesome Giant Robot weapons they don't have the logic to use correctly. They can still get stuck if they can't fit through parts of the map as a giant. You can edit the .nav file and block off certain pathways so bots don't take them.

Unfortunately, due to multiple server crashes related to CNavMesh and to CTFTankBoss, TF2's nav system is disabled whenever STT is running. Doing this cut our crashes roughly in half. The nav system will automatically be re-enabled when STT not running. A map change is required for the nav mesh to be reloaded.

That sucks, is there anyway I can run TFBots with STT?

Yes, to prevent any changes to the nav mesh system, set the convar tank_nav_mesh to 0.
