Bots/NPCs question
#1

hi,

am i limited as far as nbc connecting is concerned? (except they take player slots)

Do they cause lag or higher up the used server resources a lot?

please help

Each bot runs its own samp-npc(.exe) process. I believe you're only limited to the amount of system resources you have available.

thanks for the fast reply already

Do you know if one bot uses a lot of resources?
Could you make a comparement to a normal player?
Does a bot use more or less server resources then a regular player?

I especially needed to know if i can connect some bots with no problem to the server or already about 5 bots
would increase server lag or smth.

Maybe this will give you an idea.

Maybe 1 percent of 1 core at best at least on our host.

So one bot uses a lot more resources then one regular player and already a low number would decrease server performance dramastically?

What his logs are showing is that the NPC's always take 1% CPU of one core, no matter what.

Well those ones are likely in use actually there is indeed 300 NPC's with my system with most not doing anything at low server usage.

thanks, so only when bots arein use they use resources right? (and not when just connected)

So lets say there are 5 bots on server each one walking around it wouldnt decrease server performance and create any lag right?
