I believe it started in the newest version 101v.

Before I had the problems with the KillMessages, then you published 101tt, which fixed it for me.

After I upgraded to 101u I had the KillMessage problem again, which was fixed for me in 101v. But with 101v, this strange “Flag problem” started for me.

And nope, I am not using such a bot name/behavior changing mod. I just changed the bot names/stats in UT.exe itself, but nothing more specific.

[esnesi]

So this Bug must be related to this setting somehow...I do know, that this problem did not exist in the earlier versions for me (like 101tt). Hope this helps.

Can you do me a favor, at which point (version) did this problem start, 101t, 101u or 101v ?

** Edit **
Also are you using a mod where you change the Bot names and or behavior ?

Ah! It was indeed the utbots.utbots mutator that i had active.
Countryflags are visible for me now as well! (as well on older smartctf versions)
Is there a chance/ possibility for compatibility you think?

A nice find esnesi, UTBots is written by me also way back.
I will most certainly look into this as it too is a good mutator
So obviously the Bots have something to do with the Country flags but I'm totally screwed if I know what and how, but I'm gonna figure it out.
Can you post your UTBots.ini file as well so I can simulate your system.

[esnesi]

Ah i see! lol!
Here is the config i use

[ProAsm]

Tnx got it.
Watch this space, I may need you to do some tests in the next day or 2.

[BassXX]

I do not use UTBots, but this issue is still appearing for me.

I do however use AutoFill, which adds Bots according to the map player recommendation. This is my only "bot related" mutator

[ProAsm]

@ BassXX, We will probably be releasing another beta in the next 24 hours and in your case set the bAltMultiKillDisplay=True
I have made several changes in how the Bots are released of their reality and also made changes on how the IpToCountry is initiated.
All I can do is trial and error as regardless of what I do, I cannot simulate your problem so it becomes very difficult to fix it.

@esnesi, Here is the same UTBots but renamed to UTBots2a
It has 4 new options in its UTBots2a.ini file, although the rest of the file is identical to the one you gave me.
These options are as follows:
bShutBotsUp=False
bNoPings=False
bNoMessages=false
bNoTalking=False
When you have time, play with these settings and see which one brings back your flags if any.
bNoPings is the one I'm pretty interested in, although bShutBotsUp is also important.
Set one at a time to True and then back to False before you set the next one.
Don't worry about what works or what does not, its only your flags I'm interested in.

bShutBotsUp=True did the trick.
Tried out bNoPings=True, but this didn't gave a difference on countryflags. (with bShutBotsUp=False)

So it appears it's something overriding/conflicting when the bots give output, interesting!

@BassX
Do you use 2k4combos, or do you use the classic frag system?
I ask this because i still got an issue on 2k4combo sounds being enabled while bEnhancedMultiKill=False. (101v)

[BassXX]

@esnesi

I have disabled 2k4 Combos, I am using the frag system of SSB

@ProAsm

No worries, I hope we will manage to track down the issue somehow. In any case, I do not rely that much on that setting. Just would be a nice to have. The most important thing for me is that you got the AltMultiKillDisplay to work for me, Thanks again for that!

[ProAsm]

Ok in the next beta, bEnhancedMultiKill=False should completely disable the multikills enabling one to use 2k4Combos or any other mod.

@esnesi
Thanks for the tests.
Did you try setting bNoMessages=False as that stops the bots talking ?

It seems that gives the same result indeed.
Bots don't talk, flags are visible. (with bShutBotsUp=False)

bNotalking=True made the bots also quiet, only on this one i didnt saw my countryflag.

[ProAsm]

@BassXX - Could you please set bEnhancedMultiKill=False then see if your flags still give problems with the BotInfo enabled/disabled.
You must do this in DM or TDM and not CTF.

@esnesi - Here is another UTBots2a but this time only with one extra option.
Please test it with bNoMessages=True also not in CTF.

Confirmed that 101w handles the multkills correctly. (bEnhancedMultiKill=False)
Also confirmed that countryflags are visible on TDM with bNoMessages=True.

Thanks for this.
So the flag problem is related to the type of messages used.
