How to Add Bots Without Cheats in TF2

̶0;Team Fortress 2̶1; contains artificial-intelligence-driven bots that mimic players playing the game. As of the time of publication, bots in ̶0;TF2̶1; are in a beta-testing phase and aren̵7;t complete. You can add bots using the developer console on your server. The game automatically balances the teams, treating the bots like human players. You can specify a specific number of bots, class the bots should play and team they should join. Unlike the puppet-bots included with ̶0;TF2,̶1; which require cheats enabled, AI bots fight against players and don̵7;t require cheats enabled on the server.
