Hi all!

Okay, here's my entry into the wonderful world of bots. :) The beta 1.0
version of Magsbot, available at
ftp://ftp.pipeline.com/users/magine/mbot1b.zip

Magsbot is intended to make programming complex bot behavior a little
easier through the use of a user-edited table of events and
corresponding bot responses. Using MB, it's pretty simple to get a bot
to speak, move, change avatar, create, delete, click or select objects,
etc.
in response to any nearly any conditions you can think of.

The scripting language is fairly powerful and will become more so as I
add to it, and eventually I hope to add a "wizard" feature to generate
the bits of script in the table automatically. MB can also be expanded
though the use of DLLs, which it can call upon in response to specified
conditions.

If you've been wanting to do some bot programming but don't have a
compiler, or don't feel like writing all the overhead necessary to just
get a bot running, or even if you aren't a programmer but want a simpler

way to make a bot behave, try Magsbot and let me know what you think. :)

Yep, you're right...I didn't realize that ftp is case-sensitive. So I
changed my links to the correct name:

ftp://ftp.pipeline.com/users/magine/MBot1b.zip

Thanks for finding that out. :)
