Better survivor bots

🤖 Better Survivor Bots

Bots should behave more like actual experienced players:

  • Loop properly — use pallets and windows intelligently instead of running randomly.
  • Understand Killer powers — e.g. avoid Huntress hatchets, respect Nurse blinks, avoid Trapper traps.
  • Know when to pre-drop pallets depending on the Killer.
  • Take protection hits when another Survivor is injured.
  • Know when to unhook rather than all rushing the hook.
  • Do generators efficiently instead of constantly leaving them.
  • Heal intelligently based on the situation.
  • Recognise when they’re being tunneled and adapt.
  • Coordinate during endgame — gates, saves and taking hits.
  • Use perks properly rather than having them effectively wasted.
  • Have selectable difficulty levels:
    • 🟢 Beginner
    • 🔵 Intermediate
    • 🟣 Advanced
    • 🔴 Expert
    • ⚫ Competitive

🔥 The biggest feature

I’d make an “Advanced Bot Training” mode where you can choose:

Killer: Any Killer
Map: Any map
Bots: 4 Survivors
Difficulty: Expert
Perks: Custom
Add-ons: Custom

Then you could actually practice things like Trapper setups, Nurse blinks, Blight rushes, Huntress shots, looping and chase mindgames without worrying about MMR.

That would make DBD much more beginner-friendly without changing the actual PvP experience.
