hey, any bot developer is welcome here. Please make yourself at home!
We already started thinking of something like this some time ago. We are still thinking about it. But we're not even about to start coding in this direction, for one simple reason : if we do it, we'll be aiming at
engine independency as well as MOD independency. And of course, some coders (myself included) may feel they need to strenghten our own experience in design and coding.

Sounds like it would be a fun community project if the interest is there. I'd certainly be interested.

well, you're welcome to join and contribute ! BTW, have you read the Bots United mission statment ? on the main page at
www.bots-united.org
Especially the part "Bots United will evolve in stages..." might interest you. But keep in mind it's a LONG TERM work, we won't be starting coding ahead tomorrow or even next month !

P.S. Would one of the mods mind putting a Foxbot forum up perhaps?

FoXBot already has a forum right ? We can't open yet another forum for a bot if it doesn't become the "official" forum. What we can do, else, is to have a link to it, like we did for Cheesemonster's RCBot. But this, only provided you guys come and contribute from time to time (read: as often as possible
) to our community.
Get in touch with one of the council members by PM and we'll talk about all this!
