As hard as it is to say, and for others to read, I really think I should jump in and give my opinion on this "project" of yours.
Unfortunately, having desperately tried for years, I think I can confirm that there's just no interest at all in the game outside of exploiting for temporary casual fun and/or obtaining "rare" or "overpowered" items, which also doesn't last very long.
The truth is everyone who cares/cared about bots has grown up and moved on, and even if the few that remain try to bring it back they'll only be playing amongst themselves, as very few are willing to give a private server of a 15 year old game a new try. The only playerbase outside of the core few to be found here is fleeting nostalgia that unfortunately doesn't last.
It's nice to talk to you after a long time, but I'd suggest dropping your project and moving on to something more lasting. This game is only worth the temporary nostalgia it gives, it's no longer long-term sustainable regardless of who owns it and what updates are brought to it outside of a complete engine rework to 2017-ify it. That said, I have nothing against you for trying, so feel free if you have time and money to burn.
