function AIProcessVehicle(%client)
{
%vehicle = %client.vehicleMounted;
%turret = %client.turretMounted;
%player = %client.player;
if(isObject(%player))
%player.setActionThread(%vehicle.getDatablock().mountPose[1], true, true);
//see if we're mounted on a turret, and if that turret has a target
if (%vehicle > 0 )
{

This will set the BOT to Sitting Position even if he mounted
a standing position like a Tailgunner

To test it just Pilot a Bomber and ask a Bot to be a Bombardier.
You can see when the Tailgunner mounts (if he is in medium or
light armor he willl be sitting at Tailgunners seat).

ADDED NOTE:

Please use:

"//Changed to fix bot , blah, blah, blah - CrackTrooper - 01-25 2004"

notes in the script lines so everybody knows what the hell you
are doing. You expect me to compare every line of code to find
the lines you added or changed?

FURTHER NOTE:
Some your ideas are good with a little mod I am implementing
them into my code. I am:

//fixed blah, blah, blah - Cracktrooper 7-17-2004

in the code to give you credit.

ONE MORE NOTE:

The Standing fixed FAILED in the 5th Test.

K, at the top of Armor::AIonMount, change this
%client.vehicleMounted = "";
to this
%client.vehicleMounted = %vehicle;

add this function to player.cs

function Player::isTailGunner(%this)
{
%vehicle = %this.getObjectMount();
// There are two "if" statements to avoid a script warning.
if (%vehicle)
if (%vehicle.getMountNodeObject(2) == %this)
return true;
return false;
}

and then in AiProcessVehicle, sub this in

%player = %client.player;
if(isObject(%player))
{
if (%player.isTailGunner)
%player.setActionThread(%vehicle.getDatablock().mountPose[2], true, true);
else
%player.setActionThread(%vehicle.getDatablock().mountPose[1], true, true);
}

haven't fully tested it yet, but will when I get off work tonight.

Like you pointed out, if the bot jumps out before the bomb hits, then there is no one in mount point one to give the score to. And now that you mention it, this is also the case for players. Same thing will happen, since no one is mounted in that node anymore. Also, before i added that code to the different game files, an error message always popped up saying that it couldn't find anything mounted in node 1 even though the bot was visibly there. The only thing I see different between a bot being in that node and a player is that the player takes control of the turret. And do you have any idea what
%turret.turreteer = %player;
or
%turret.bomber = %player;
are used for? There's no other reference in any of the other script files for these.
