Does anyone how what Unrealscript Calls the specific BotName So I can access it In Kismet.

I think we’re going to need more detail. You want a reference to a bot in UnrealScript, and then output its name in Kismet? Like I showed you how to do with the player?

Yes Thats exactly It.

I haven’t tested it, but I think this is how I would do it.

class SeqAction_GetBotName extends SequenceAction;

var Pawn Bot;
var string BotName;

event Activated()
{
	if(AIController(Bot.Controller) != none)
	{
		BotName = AIController(Bot.Controller).PlayerReplicationInfo.PlayerName;
	}
	ActivateOutputLink(0);
}

defaultproperties
{
	bCallHandler=false
	ObjName="Get Bot Name"
	ObjCategory="MyGame Actions"
	VariableLinks(0)=(ExpectedType=class'SeqVar_Object',LinkDesc="Bot",bWriteable=false,PropertyName=Bot)
	VariableLinks(1)=(ExpectedType=class'SeqVar_String',LinkDesc="BotName",bWriteable=true,PropertyName=BotName)
}

The check to see whether it’s an AIController is not entirely necessary, as PlayerReplicationInfo is apparently in Controller, which is a parent class of AIController. So if you wanted to, you could easily turn this into a generic “get name” that would work for both human players and bots.
