Allright, Thank you very much Diva, so it is possible to have this bot on the serverside. Do you know where to find some documentation on how to use this NPC module ?
Anyway thank you for your answer -------------------------------------- OpenSim supports server-side bots. Here are pictures of a sim with 200 server-side bots: http://www.metaverseink.com/blog/?p=27 You can look at the NPC module for learning how to do this. My experience with server-side bots, however, is quite disappointing. We definitely need to improve the design for this. It's absolutely horrible and inefficient for these bots to have to implement the IClientAPI. And the bots are very hard to control. not to mention that the latest changes to appearance make the bots be grey. Work in progress...
