This entity is not in the FGD by default.
See below for instructions on making it available.

bot_npc_archer is an e0 available in Team Fortress 2.

Warning:

• The {{{game}}} parameter is inconsistent with the name defined by the {{tf2}} template. This can most likely be fixed by setting the value of the {{{game}}} parameter to Team Fortress 2.
  If a parameter is consistent but you're still seeing this warning, it may be an issue with the template itself. Please discuss it on the template's talk page.

In code, it is represented by theCBotNPCArcherclass, defined in thebot_npc_archer.cppfile.

Entity description

This is a NextBot using the models\player\sniper.mdl model which wields a Huntsman. It will go into humiliation pose unless one of the following entities is present on the map:

• base_boss
• eyeball_boss
• headless_hatman
• merasmus
• tank_boss

If at least one of those entities exists, the archer will shoot any BLU player which can be attacked. The NPC aims for heads and aims ahead in case a target is moving. When a BLU player is killed by a headshot from this entity, the kill feed will display an environmental headshot death icon. In the case of a bodyshot, a regular environmental death will be shown. Despite first appearances, this NPC is teamless, and can take and give damage to RED or BLU players. A similar teamless state has been seen with poor coding.

Bug:The entity does not compensate for gravity when shooting.  [todo tested in ?]

Bug:When spawned using the ent_create bot_npc_archer command, this entity will try to go to the origin of the map, if a NAV file is present. This is because the command causes the game to spawn the entity to the origin of the map, and then teleports it to where the player is looking (if possible).  [todo tested in ?]
