Yes, bot work in all 3rd pary maps, but you have to wait for about 5-15mins for a creation of a .nav file. This file tells the bots where to go. You only have to wait once. If you see a map and it says ".nav files included" grab it. Then you can play without having to wait.
THANKS VALVE!!!!!
This is most intelligent thing that i have ever seen a game do, i have only had problems with the bots on a few maps (e.g. cs_mansion).
Am i wrong in saying no other game has ever calculater the bot paths, sniper, ambush spots on new maps automaticaly?
- They should have told us so we knew why the bots took so long ;0)
After playing a few aim maps now i have some skill (aim_ak-colt_v3, aim_akm4ruins2, aim_tmp)
And the 10mg maps take around 15 min, aim maps take a few secs.
