http://grimmsoft.com/aw/sdk/ is the VB SDK, you need to know basic VB to
make a functioning bot, but to make something a bit more advanced, you need
to know a bit more advanced VB...

I assume your problem is defining the universe, this is how you do it:
sdk.AwCreate(unihost, uniport)
unihost is a string containing the hostname of the server where the
UniServer runs (example: auth.activeworlds.com for AW), uniport is a long
(number) containing the port on which the UniServer listens (for AW it's 0,
most probably different for DLP).

I think I'll take the wraps off my latest project... my aPhoneBot, it has
many cool features, and it's currently got the IRC protocol implemented,
relays chat between the IRC channel and AW place(s)... It's basically ready,
just need to polish it a bit... planning on really making it break down the
barrier of different protocols, and implement other of the popular protocols
for chat/IM.

Hi all, I just released my newest bot, the aPhoneBot (advanced PhoneBot).
It's a pretty advanced chat relaying bot, it can relay chat between up to 15
places in AW environments (it's transuniversal!). Also, it can relay chat
between AW and an IRC channel! I'm planning to add support for ICQ and other
popular chat protocols soon. Check it out now,
http://home.no.net/kahbot/aphone.php

The site is complete with a bug reporting feature :-))

because of Microsoft's stupidity, the installer actually installed v 1.0
(outdated alpha version) and not 1.2... I fixed it yesterday, so if you
downloaded before 22:00 CET (21:00 GMT, 19:00 VRT), please redownload it
now. I'm really sorry lol

you could probably do a Hello world, but not a bot without having to do SOME
debuging... I think you need to resize your ego to something a bit smaller.
I think it sounds like a good idea, and if it hadn't been for the AW
protocol being closed and encrypted it would be possible to create some sort
of emulator.

aaah, why does somebody else always do the same thing as me at the same
time? lol, my bot does the exact same thing, with the addition of IRC
relaying and I've got plans to implement things like AIM and ICQ into it...

the really good ones haven't really be cracked yet. The binary encryption
algorythms work pretty well, the only thing is how do you hide the key for
the encryption, because if you hardcode it it can be found, and it will be
pretty hard to achieve anything else if others are gonna be able to decrypt
it.

Hi, I'm thinking of starting a project relating to bots and bot programming:
in short, the Planet Source Code concept, for AW bots/utilities. If you
don't know Planet Source Code, the concept is that users submit source code
to a source code library where other programmers can get the code freely.
Many find it very usefull for learning, and I think it would be nice to do
something similar for AW. What do you all think? and are some of you
interested in helping out creating it? please reply to this post or emial me
[kah at kahnews.cjb.net] :-))

Look, before you continue posting, learn how to post correctly! this is NOT
related to the sdk and community groups, only the bots group. And this is an
issue you should contact Brant himself about, we don't really care about
your rants about bots. And obviously you aren't very familiar with how AW
works it seems, neither about some general things about bots and software in
general (don't expect a beta to work like a release). Please don't crosspost
if it isn't REALLY necessary, and if you REALLY want to post a rant, do so
in general.discussion.

CA bots can actually be rather usefull in certain worlds (like big public
building worlds, etc).

I've had my bot ejected from AW GZ a few times because of forgetting to
multiply coords, etc, while I've been in AW. I've never been kicked out,
but I haven't really tested going out then back in, so I guess it would
happen.

I guess you COULD do this, but I don't support taking over control of other
apps, maybe you should consider running your bots on a different machine
(use it as bot server).

That's because Global Mode only works with bots that have it enabled, other
bots and clients still have a 200m chat range.

A Xelagot script *MIGHT* be able to do this (I'm not very familiar with
them, so I don't know for sure), but you might need a custom bot. Collision
detection (what determines if you bump into something or someone in the 3D
scene) is client-side (the browser does it without telling the server), so
the bot does not receive any event when it happens, but it does receive the
position of people within range, so if your bot has the dimensions of all
objects and has queried the area so it knows where the objects are, it
would have to check every time someone moves if they coincide with an
object. Try making a simple check with Xelagot first.

*NOT* the newsgroup, your newsreader did that :-)) The news server doesn't
sort messages (off course, it could, but it wouldn't matter because most
newsreaders sort messages themselfes). Yes, I know I'm freaky for insisting
on this stuff all the time lol ;-))

Hi, I just wrote a hack (don't worry, it just means it's a version not
written by the original author) to Bowen's terrain elevation bot posted in
Worldbuilders earlier which lets you specify the altitude at which you want
the bot to set the terrain instead of it being hardcoded.
http://kahnews.cjb.net/bots/terrain.zip read readme.txt before running the
bot.
