Which instance determins the number of bots one can run ?

My bot allways failes to spawn more than 2 more bots, 3 in total, and it
fails at the aw_login,
which means that is a universe limit. is that correct ?

i am sure its good that the number of bots is limited, but e.g. for the beta
world, it would be nice if the limit was much more, since it would allow for
more bot testing :)

imagine 10 bots controlled by one programm, you could have a dance
performance or sth similar :)

3 bots don't even match spice girls (well, by now they do since spice girls
are down to 3 :) )

The bot limit is applied universe-wide, per citizen number. It's not
applied per-instance, per-application, or per-world.

In other words, the limit is on the total number of bots owned by a
particular citizen running anywhere in the universe. Thus if you have
access to multiple citizenships you can, for example, write a single
application that runs lots and lots of bots, under a variety of accounts.

The bot limit for individual citizenships can be raised by the universe
administrator (i.e. COF).
I don't think it's been decided yet whether or not and under which
circumstances requests for bot limit increases will be fulfilled. This part
isn't my decision. If you have requests, or just strong feelings on the
matter, please direct them to cof at activeworlds.com.
