Some further testing on Deck 16 only has revealed that the critical error
only occurs when there is more than one bot in the game. When using
only one bot, the game can be played to it's conclusion, although the
bot has a tendency to become completely invisible, and sometimes loses
interest in the chicken as well. If I am able to determine the triggers for this
behavior, I'll let you know.
This has the potential to be a good game, once the bugs are worked out.
Thanks for all the time and effort you're putting in.
