Exploit: exceed the bot summon limit

Number of summonable bots = 1 in rule_values

1-Summon a bot, get it killed.
2-Summon a different bot, get it killed (repeat as many times as you want)
3-Then zone, all those bots are now in your group.

So even if you have max summonable bots set to 1, players can still get a full group of bots using this exploit. Any help to fix this in source would be much appreciated Thanks!

i was able to reproduce this bug and fixed it by adding to Bot::Death,

if(HasGroup())
Bot::RemoveBotFromGroup(this, GetGroup());

Why not use a this pointer if it's in Bot, or just write
if(HasGroup())
RemoveBotFromGroup(GetGroup())

Might be something I overlooked then, lol, I don't normally touch the bot code :P

Old post I know, but it's exactly what I'm having problems with now. So what needs to be done after inserting that into the bot file?

This should be fixed in Rev 2132.
