could you explain a bit about why you want to do this.. just curious really but may help. doesn't sound like a simple map fix.. more changing the core mod files.

That's a HUD related question...for the most part. Removing casualties and flag capture notices can be done be editing the ingame meme file. However, since it seems you want to only remove the ones relating to bots, then that can't be done by the meme files on their own. The EXE does not differentiate between humans and bots when sending a flag capture status or kill stats to the HUD for on screen display. So something like this would require hex editing the EXE.

What about those images in the Menu.rfa file that correspond to the on-screen messages? Can't you just edit them to be 1x1 pixel instead? Or 0x0 pixels if that's possible?

As I said, they can be removed entirely. Just delete the transform nodes that have the information pertaining to them and they won't appear ever again. You just can't make it bot specific.
