The bot will stay in the Hall of Storms unless you ping it, then it will follow you around.

I think the OP wants the bots automated to follow someone nearby on leaving, but I’m not sure because the way this worded is pretty poor.
Which is, not a bad feature.

I think OP wants bots that do literally anything independent of hugging whoever pinged them and eventually dying because they can’t decide when to stop following and therefore stop dying.
Bots used to do things man, I won games off the backs of bots. But these? These aren’t bots, they’re paperweights.

It’s incredible, but they’ve actually managed to make the bots worse than they were 6 years ago.
The ETC ai bot used to be so good it made game changing plays in a HGC match.
Can you imagine the current useless AI doing such a thing?

No, because you used the words doing and things, and imagining these bots ever doing much of anything is crazy.
I get that other MOBAs have not even got bad bots, but they’ve just systemically gutted the AI until we were left with this. Now, the AI stands in Deathwing fire but evades Flamestrike perfectly. It makes no sense, it can’t ever be counted on. Even as a learning tool, with DW it just teaches you that KYUU GO FIAR, BOOM. With many tanks it teaches you that you’ll bubble enemy lines which isn’t always true and it tells you you can focus a healer and they won’t try to force you out of position. The bots have been hustling objs more and as a result I see many more players at low levels being convinced of their importance. But that’s something they didn’t need to be broken to do.

Seriously. I don’t know what they did, but bot behaviour is completely ruined. Ever since they made the baffling change to make bots not walk past the minion wave in lane about two years ago, when they did the “behaviour improvements”. That was the big switch.
By the by, I played an AI game today and I’m still noticing bugs that specific change caused. An Abathur bot on my team opened the game by tunneling to fort, then proceeded to Hearth to base then walk out behind the minion wave. I assume it’s coded to tunnel at the start of the game, but the nonsense wave pattern tells it it’s now out of position. Astonishing.
