"Stupid Angry Bot - An offline Deathmatch Bot for Doom III

It won't eat, it won't sleep, it absolutely will not stop, until it does 
something stupid.

NOTE: This is a largely untested Alpha version.
While theoretically the worst that will happen is the game crashes, I 
hold no responsibility if your computer explodes in a ball of 
incandescent fury.

= Limitations =
There is no scoring.
Other human players can't play on your server (may crash, may just not 
work, dunno).
You will always be in warmup.
bot won't run.
bot isn't protected by armor.
bots use single player weapon damage settings, rocket does more, 
chaingun less, machinegun less, plasmagun less."


Finally, someone has taken the time to create a bot for Doom 3!

It's offline, but who cares?

The only catch is that you have to compile the AAS files for each map 
you want the bots to run on, by executing the author's cfg.

And despite what some people say, there IS a way to play team DM with 
these bots.  Just do something like this:

addbot bot_sabot team 0
addbot bot_sabot team 1

This add's one bot to team 0, which is the player's team, and one to team 1.

I had a lot of fun watching the bots go 3v3 =)

You can still damage friendly bots though, even if team damage is off. 
However, this is an excellent start, and since it's by TinMan, it can 
only get better!
