Cool. Can I see. How about scheduling a viewing or give us the source or
binaries.

Never mind, I found it in AWPres.

It Rocks.

Does each gesture do a specific thing or are they random. It seems that the
ball moves a random distance and rolls around in circles a little.

So far it just respondes to all gestures. Today we're gonna change all the
gesture1's on the avs to kick and have the bot only accept those. And it
will also only let people kick it if they're within 1 meter of it. :)

walls), but hay, this is fantastic !! Already thinking of starting the
first BotBall league =))

Another movement you should think about doing . ..tho, it might be a hard
one, you need one that makes the ball get kicked into the air, then
descends again . ..it could be a fixed kick distance....this would add
heaps to the game, ie. kicking over peoples heads and such . ..

tho, you might want to make this a harder "action" to use somehow. . . .

Could make it randomly kick over peoples heads like maybae a 1 in 20 chance
of it doing that? :)
and we are working on a block gesture for goalies :)

ctually, that would be even better, it'd add an extra random factor to the game
=))p,
