POD-Bot 2.6 = POD-Bot 2.5 + buggy A* code which doesn't work at all + some fixes + some bugs (A LOT more than fixes)
and in YaPB I have changed a lot to the pathfinder, the "defensive" and "normal" bots will try to avoid danger places. Perhaps this is why they are "too shy to defuse the bomb". POD-Bot 2.5 will ONLY try to find the shortest path even if they hurts a lot there
