Hey everyone,

A major update to the playerbot system is now live.

This update focuses on improving some of the most important parts of bot behavior across the server, especially Dungeon Finder, battlegrounds, arenas, queue filling, PvP reactions, and helper bot cleanup. A lot of work also went into reducing weird edge cases, broken states, and bots behaving incorrectly after restarts or after changing activities.

One of the biggest improvements is in queue filling. Dungeon Finder filler bots now do a better job of checking which role is actually missing before joining, so tanks, healers, and DPS should be filled more appropriately. Battleground and arena filler behavior was also improved so helper bots can join, support, and leave more cleanly once they are no longer needed.

PvP behavior also received attention in this update. Target selection, response behavior, and movement handling were improved to make bots feel more active and less awkward in combat. Arena filler and arena cleanup were also improved so matches should behave more cleanly overall.

This update also includes stability and cleanup work behind the scenes, especially for queue-related state, helper bot recovery, and activity transitions between systems like battlegrounds, arenas, and dungeons.

There may still be more tuning to do over time, but this update should already make a noticeable difference in overall playerbot quality and reliability.

Thanks to everyone who kept testing and reporting issues.
