Avatar Joshua-Boo-Boos3669118089Joshua-Boo-Boos Double-Barrel Shotgun Pistol (DBSP) - NS2.0-EN VersionThe Brazier Industries Double-Barrel Shotgun Pistol.

A sidearm favoured by Frontiersmen personnel who require extra firepower in close quarters combat but would prefer not to wield the heavy shotgun.

A marine fighting against the alien threat once said: "I like to keep this handy... For close encounters".

Provides three cartridge types:

Standard -> 10 pellets, 10 damage per pellet -> 100 damage maximum at Weapons 3
Slug -> 1 pellet, 70 damage per pellet -> 70 damage maximum at Weapons 3

Damage falloff is applied in the following fashion:

Damage * (1 - (((target:GetOrigin() - player:GetOrigin()):GetLength()/Range) ^ Falloff Applied))

Falloff Applied is 0 or 1 based on whether damage falloff should be applied or not and the range is set to 50 (equal to the Submachinegun).

Accuracy goes from:
Standard -> Inaccurate
Slug -> Accurate

Standard has spread vectors generated in a random fashion with high spread randomisation values respectively.

Use your secondary attack button to change cartridge types (see the cartridge name change on the DBSP's display) if you have Weapons 2 or 3.

Two shots per magazine.

Where is that Skulk hiding?

This version is designed for use with NS2.0-EN.		No62.566 MiBFeb 19, 202619-02-2026 17:06:22

Avatar Bhaz3397710344Bishop - Bot Modv1.5.8 - They're comin' out of the goddamn walls!

Bishop - Bot Mod


Bishop is an overhaul to bots that attempts to increase the challenge they provide to players. It also serves as an attempt to preserve this dying title's longevity.

Not all maps support vents yet, I will remove this message when that changes.

Bishop now has a UI. You an access it by:
a) Typing !bishop in chat.
b) Running bishop_menu in the console.
c) Binding a key to open the menu, i.e.:
bind P bishop_menu

Highlights


  • UI and automated bot management.
  • Skulk vent support.
  • Strategically placed temporary phase gates and tunnels.
  • Alien pack mentalities.
  • Marine fireteams.
  • Dynamic alien retreating.
  • Late-game med spam.
  • Complete Gorge rework.
  • Movement improvements.
  • Dozens of minor tweaks and bugfixes.

Installation and Usage


1) Subscribe

Please also subscribe to Bot_Maintenance, this mod wouldn't have been created without it.
Dedicated server users can skip this step.

2) Enable

Launch the game, go to the mods menu and enable the mod. Remember to click Restart instead of Back.
Dedicated server users can skip this step.

If you're running a dedicated server, the required mod IDs are:
117887554, 3397710344, 3023063995
If you prefer enabling mods the old school way by hex ID:
706d242, ca84f208, b4304bbb

3) Jump In

Launch a local game (or join your dedicated server.)
Try to open the Bishop UI to confirm it's working. (Steps at top.)

4) Play

Choose your desired settings - changes are saved immediately.
The config for Bishop is saved in %appdata%\Natural Selection 2\shine\plugins\Bishop.json.
The path is very similar for dedicated servers, but starts from the config folder.

With management enabled, Bishop will do its best to maintain your chosen settings.
If you choose to disable management, addbot and all the vanilla bot commands work as normal.
Be careful fiddling with these settings mid-round or you may abruptly end your game.

On dedicated servers, your SteamID needs either global access to all commands (an empty blacklist), or permission to use the "bishop_set" command.
Here is the relevant Shine documentation page for changing user permissions.

Open the GUI and then as a:

Marine:

Click an entry representing a player with a green background and click Give Res to give 5 p-res using a 1:1 ratio and put the recipient marine on cooldown for 30 seconds.

Click Give Commander Res when the button has a green background to convert 20 p-res to 4 t-res and put the team on cooldown for 30 seconds.

and Aliens:

The same process applies for giving p-res to other players.

Aliens cannot give p-res for t-res.

Requires Shine to work.

The values can all be controlled via !grconfig or sh_grconfig by Shine admins (players with sh_adminmenu permission in the UserConfig.json file).		No52.885 KiBJan 22, 202613-02-2026 05:15:04
