More tricks for bots!

BOTS. I like this feature a lot, sometimes it's even more fun playing with bots instead of real players.
But they still can't replace players. I'm sure they never will. But I have a suggestion with which you will get even more fun experience!
The thing is: I've been playing with bots all day, and that is what i noticed:
- They don't use covers.
- They don't use throwing weapons.

- They can't throw items. ( And catch them accordingly )
- They are bad at avoiding mines, stuff that can pin them down ( lifts, falling crates, etc. )
( But they are good at avoiding you when you are sliding down the ladder, wow )
- They can't use things around them as an advantage ( breakable floor, explosive barrels, etc. )
I don't think this is some kind of bug, i think this is not a small suggestion either. Adding such things would multiply the fun with playing with bots by several times! I don't know if developers are already working on it, but i haven't seen a similar suggestion so i wanted to make sure. So, if adding this is possible, why not? :D

I was about to link the thread which contains all the missing bot features that are planned to be added in future updates (all features you mentioned are in the list) but it's inside the private Beta Tester sub-forum and it was written by Gurt so I won't move it without his permission.

Just in-case the forum was already made public without me noticing it, here's the link:

@Gurt Private Beta test forum should probably be made available for all forum goers as some tutorials and info there are still viable for use.

EDIT: The thread has been made available for everyone. Here's the link:

Feel free to move over relevant topics to the main forum if you like.

Gurt has since moved the thread and stickied it in the main SFD sub-forum. You can find it here:

Also edited my previous reply and updated the link there.
