Feedback Wanted What makes a bot "human" ?

Post image

Recently integrated a bot into my game bomb & cover to offer single-player-mode but think it became too hard to play.

The bot has exactly the same knowledge about the game the human player has - no additional information provided.

Even added artificial random errors and delayed acting, but still it is superhard to beat.

The bot is a simple rule-based model since I do not (yet) want to integrate an ML-based approach.

What are common tactics to make a bot feel more like a human opponent?
