REQUIRES Tangential VERSION 1.60

WARNING - Using this will overwrite the list of custom bots you may have
          created with Tangential.
		  
ALSO    - Some skins containing invalid characters such as - (hyphen) can
          cause problems when creating the file.  There is a way to force
		  BotJohnny to correct this problem but it slowed down the launch
		  so much I took it out.  Instead, to sort it, right click the
		  Bots list (on the BOTS tab) choose "Bot List" then "Maintenance".
		  If you look on the SKINS and MODELS tabs it will show you any
		  that may cause problems and allow you to change them.  It will
		  also update any bots or teams that use these skins automatically.
		  

---INTRODUCTION

This archive contains various files for use with BotJohnny to allow it
to launch Tangential's SecantBot.

The version number above shows the version of BotJohnny required for
these files to work followed by a revision letter (eg "a") to
show any differences.


---INSTALLATION

You must have BotJohnny version 1.52 to use these files.  

1. Go to your BotJohnny main folder

2. Unzip the configuration files with "use folder names" checked

3. Run BotJohnny as normal.

4. Set up a new profile using the "Tangential" bot.

5. IF Tangential is installed in a folder called "Tangential" you don't need to do
   anything else.  Otherwise go to the PATHS tab.  Click "Change Bot Folder"
   and type in the name of the folder here.


---RELEASE ISSUES

x  See "ALSO" at the top of this file!
x  All bots are given the same skill level (as selected on the MAIN tab)
x  The bots' speed is taken from the bots' combat skills and is scaled up,
   so you don't have direct control over the exact value it takes but it
   works reasonably well enough.
x  The bots' ping is taken from the Eraser average ping but again is scaled up.
x  Launching is still not as speedy as it could be
x  Tangential does not, as yet, support Capture the Flag
x  Client latency and "auto adjust skill" do nothing
x  You can't edit the bot chat (Secantbot doesn't support chat editing)
x  Tangential does not seem to support the map cycle list as yet
x  The list of models supporting the viewable weapons is ignored.
x  If you spawn random bots they will have really crap names.  Also they don't
   actually seem to be random at all (from my tests).  You are better
   off spawning using "a random number of the bots from the list below" (from BOTS
   tab)


---NOTES

x  If you disable SecantBot from the extra options no bots at all will be
   spawned.
x  Enabling the chase camera from the extra options does NOT switch it on,
   it only allows it to be switched on.  (See below).   


It is recommended you set these up using the AutoExec Wizard
before using Tangential:

x  To fire the Tangential grappling hook, bind a key to "+firehook"
x  If you bind keys to "+growhook" and "+shrinkhook" you can extend and shrink
   the hook once it has been fired (ie pulling you up or lowering you down)
x  To use the gunscope feature, bind a key to "+zoom"
x  To toggle the chase camera, type in "cmd cam toggle" at the console
x  To view the score when playing teamplay, type in "sv team score" at the
   console.
   

---REVISION HISTORY:

This is the first release.  Special features include:

x  Options to enable various special Tangential bits
x  Skin/Model check in the Bot Maintenance
x  Hook and zoom aliases are set up by default
x  Various commands added to AutoExec Wizard
