Default Re: POD-bot back into shape. - 19-03-2004

Okay guys, new release, new changelog
Quote:
+ Worked around the crashing issue with some stats plugins (THEIR fault!)
+ Fixed waypoint copyright message not showing anymore at round start
+ Fixed usage of a dozen useless variables for showing the waypoint creator at
round start where one single variable would have fit for the job
+ Cleaned up the code again some more
+ Rewritten the bot chat code in a much cleaner way (bots use the "say" and
"say_team" client commands like humans now).
+ IMPORTANT: added a new knowledge file type for POD-bot: .pvi files. The .pvi
files will store the bot's waypoint visibility table on disk instead of
recalculating it each time a new map starts. These files will be stored in
the waypoints folder along with the .pwf and .pxp files. Like the .pxp files,
these .pvi files are deletable (in which case they will be re-created).
+ Fixed visibility table failing to reload on some level change situations
+ Moved all the global variables declarations to bot_globals.h and all the
definitions to bot_globals.cpp; only header to include now is bot_globals.h
+ Simplified the waypoint editor code part in waypoint.cpp
+ Pathwaypoints are not added anymore if they go through func_illusionaries
+ Simplified some of the utility functions in util.cpp
+ Fixed quite a few potential crash bugs again. Should be rock stable now.
+ Probably more to come.
There are some important changes in this one, you may want to upgrade.
