You are right, this was yet another bug left in the 2.6 source. I've fixed it.

and about the radio usage, there was indeed a bug (in my own code) that would make the bots react to radio commands when issued by a player but not to radio commands issued by bots themselves

anyway there will be yet another release. I've sorta fixed stuff in the camping behaviour too, which was incredibly broken in the POD-bot 2.6.

changelog:
Quote:
+ Fixed skill not displaying after the bot names when DetailNames is turned on
+ Took the radio code out of the message queue for simplification
+ Fixed bots gazing at the sky or the floor (or generally anywhere but where
they should have looked at instead) when camping on non-camp waypoints (well,
they MIGHT still face walls but then it'll be that they've HEARD something)
+ Fixed bots moving their gun erratically when camping
+ Repaired bits of the camping code that were for ages broken in POD-bot (here's
another example of confusion between angles and vectors...)
+ Fixed a stupid bug in my own code that was making the bots use the radio less
