I think it's Agurus with his 4way CTF thing, but whatever.

...catid already made a CTF bot that supports at least 4-way (I think it's 8 max, actually)

person who volunteers to help != good coder
person who volunteers to help != good sysop
good coder != good sysop

Lol.

Does any bot project really need more than 2 coders? Actually, for something as simple (yes, simple), as a bot plugin, coding would work much better if only one were working on it at a time. Then you don't get a mix of programming practices and the whole wad of junk that stems from that.

this is not so simple cyan...

that 3rd statement isn't always true Ekted, there are some sysops that can code pretty well, and there are some bad coders that are equally bad sysops.
(Sysop who needs to come here to find a coder && doesn't reveal project up front) != good sysop
I don't think anyone here wants your ideas, and those that do probably can't implement them, so chill out.

I agree with Cyan completely, that almost never works "real simple"

in any case - whatever it is you think is a huge bot project probably isn't

and, ya, if you want an AI bot, then just sit down - if there ever is a good one, someone's going to make it for their own satisfaction, not yours

What I meant by != is "is not necessarily". Arbitrarily giving sysop to someone just because they volunteer to code for you (good or not) is probably a bad idea.

no AI bot......

Ekted is right. Just because someone is a volunteer doesnt necesarily make them a good coder. It doesnt exclude them either. They are unrelated subjects.

If this is your 4way ctf scoreboard, then talk to JC of MG. If he says you can have, and if he tells me you can (not just you saying itll be ok) then Ill release it source and all for you or others to play with.

I think it has been taken down, it was up for thier football league only. VampZ programmed the bot and it is very well done.
