This is pretty amazing. One thing I wondered is if this is a glorified aim bot, but it’s a “tag” version of CTF so that’s less of a factor plus they reduced the reaction time of bots. It also takes raw pixel input so it’s not gaining an advantage by having an altered game model. However, sounds like the bots didn’t receive sound input, which could be a human advantage (e.g. hearing footsteps of a non-visible player behind a wall).
