Editing Reverse MvM Beginners Guide (section)

=== Friendly Robots ===
When adding friendly bots to your mission, you should balance them to be considerably weaker than the upcoming red robots.  If your friendly bots are strong enough to beat the mission without player interference in a reasonable amount of time, players won't feel very engaged.  A good system for picking good friendly robots is to pick the less dangerous variant of bots you are using in your waves.  If a certain sub-wave uses crit rapid fire giant soldiers on red, send out normal giant soldiers on blu.  This way, blu robots are at an inherent disadvantage and need players to assist them to progress.      

It is recommended that VIP escorting objectives be very forgiving unless you specifically force the bot to only follow players.  Do note that players are able to interact with bots in several ways.  Heavies can heal them with lunchbox items, medics can uber them, soldiers can whip them, and bots will take nearby active teleporters.  All of these features can be modified or disabled.
