What is Rbots?
Rbots is a project to create a ‘bot’ for Jedi Knight. A bot is a computer controlled player for multiplayer games. It should react and play just like a human player – it has health, shields, limited ammo & weapons and when it dies it will ‘respawn’ to allow the game to continue. Multiple bots will battle amongst themselves as well as any number of human players. Rbots is a ‘community project’, where anyone and everyone has full access to the latest source code and is encouraged to contribute. No one has to join the team full time, just sending in little snippets of code or a single level that’s been converted, when they get time. Raynar co-ordinates the project, updating the main source and rereleasing it as required. The actual cog code is now fully public domain. Anyone can use it or any parts of it however they like, in whatever project they like. Any code contributed to the project is also available in the same way.
