RealBot Personality Manager

[stefanhendriks]

note to strider,

you can create commentary in your created personality files. Once the bot has read the file, it will not save the file again(thus it will not overwrite your data). This way you can 'signature' your files.

Like:

; Personality file created by "Real Bot Personality Manager" version x.yy.zzzz , programmed by Strider.
; yadadaya
 
; section 1, this is about yadayada, blablabla
[]
 
; section 2, this is about yadayadya, etc...

you'll get the idea

yeah I figured that, but I never really thought about putting in a signature. If they have that program then why would they be viewing the ini file? lol. Instead you've just given me the idea of putting in three things:

1) user created comments that would allow the people to put in notes, etc.
2) an extension to that, put in an export facility so people could swap bots and give bots to friends etc. Perhaps make a new .rbpm file extension??
3) finally, just put the version number in the file so when you release a new realbot with more advanced settings and more preferences the program could automatically adapt the file to the new format.

What do you think?

go ahead and do it!

Version 1.05 is out now. It supports importing and exporting of bot files (.rbpm) and it also includes a "Comments" field and a "Creator" field, so for those people who are exporting bots with honed offsets that give a realistic battle down to the sixth decimal place can show off their work!

I have also included an export file [TLA]strider, basically corresponding to me. Just to show off the importing function, of course! Post up your own if you want! You can't post them up directly unfortunately - you have to zip them first.

Stefan: If you put this up on the main site, is there some ftp I should upload to or do I just post it up here? Anyway I can't think of a thing that I would be wanting to add to this so it's most probably ready to add! I think I'll declare it finished until the next update of RealBot!

None-the-less, if anyone has any bugs or problems, just post it up here!

Have fun!

he he, I think because I just edited the last post that noone knows the new and probably last version is out

[stefanhendriks]

i will upload it to my site asap. Perhaps you can write a nice readme with it, so i can put it also at the 'readme' links of the download site (like i do with realbot).

nice work!

just take the readme file that's generated when you first run the program. It'll be in the realbot directory under RBPM*readme.txt where * is the version number. I made it generate so I wouldn't have to keep bundling a new one with the zip file and to flex my winapi muscles I'll post the readme file directly up here if you want...

by the way, I send RealBot AI to file planet so you can download it from there at http://www.fileplanet.com/files/130000/135548.shtml

There should be an option to where it will edit ALL the bots at the same time. I would like to be able to set the priority of geting the bomb planted to be at 99.

I just got around to download this and I was impressed. I didn't quite realize all of the bot options. Now I have to find time and go through and make a fleet of bots, I'm still using the default ones .
