For the last month or so I've been hard at work teaching birbs fly.
You can select if you want bots in the lobby even if you started the game in single player. The bots show up on the leaderboard as 'Government drone 1'
Even though I spent a lot of time on them, the bots are not yet perfect with flying, because I wanted for them to be fair and only have the same controls as the players do.
No one tells you how complicated it is to navigate fully in 3 dimensions and unreal isn't equipped for it. I managed to get around it, but it is possible for them to sometimes get stuck.
"High rise" is a map, where I can vouch for them getting to the finish 99% of the time and under 3 minutes. I will have to do more tuning of their digital brains to make them better.
