A Spy robot behaves like a human Spy would, sapping Engineer buildings, backstabbing enemies, cloaking, disguising, and using its Revolver and Knife in close quarters. Unlike other robots, the Spy bots spawn where the players aren't looking in close proximity to the players, as opposed to from a map's normal spawn points.

As soon as a Spy robot spawns, it will disguise and try to backstab players, though it will never attempt to disguise as a class the RED team does not possess. When disguised, Spies will never attack unless they're closing in on a target or players attack first. When fleeing, Spy robots will Cloak, move a distance away, then redisguise. However, if they're very close to the player when recognized as an enemy, Spy-bots will strafe within stabbing reach around the player until they get a backstab in. Notably, Spy-bots are distinguishable from regular players due to the fact that they will laugh in their regular, robotic voices even when disguised, unlike regular Spies, notifying a player that they are nearby.

A notification is always shown when a Spy enters the map, and its entrance is announced by the Administrator. Killing a Spy robot results a notification by the Administrator of how many Spy robots are left on the field, unless there are more than five remaining.

Bugs

  • A Spy robot's chuckling is audible from anywhere on the map.
  • The robot's revenge-related lines are not robotized when wandering around the map, not chasing anybody or when sapping a building.

Trivia

  • If a disguised Spy-bot is viewed as a spectator, it will simply appear as a RED Spy-bot. While this may be a bug, the Spy's robot counterpart lacks the masked sub-models the original has, so it is possible that it is intentional.
  • Spy robots are the only robots in the game to have all five fingers modeled separately, as opposed to having the middle finger, ring finger, and pinky finger lumped together.
