FoxBot 0.79 released!

[RoboCop]

Well it appears that Omni-Bot and (RedFox, already 12 years ago) - are no longer supporting FoxBot for TFC anymore since Zybby left Omni-Bot in 2010 and left some unfinished problems.

So far I think I've managed to work out the major kinks but I am not sure on fixing some unsolved problems: like the Bot Behaviour from the new bot_think_job.cpp file introduced in version 0.76; and the bot_team_balance cvar.

What it is that the priority factor for the bot_think_job.cpp appears to fail for allowing engineer bots to focus more on building sentry turrets - even at its higher factor level. Plus those bots appears to ignore the Capture Points in AvD or Assault maps, despite using the "Check Path" waypoint added near CPs ranked from 1-5 each.

I cannot guarantee that I will fix those bugs pronto. But if anyone got any advice or useful tips, please let me know. The src code and builds are located below:-
