REQUIRES ACE V0.07 (or above)


---INTRODUCTION

This archive contains a series of configuration files which you can use
with BotJohnny to enable support for the A.C.E. bot.

Please read this Readme file before use.

The version number of these files corresponds to the version number of
BotJohnny required to use them plus a letter marking any subsequent
revisions.


---INSTALLATION

You must have BotJohnny version 1.3 to be able to use this configuration
file.  It should come built into BotJohnny.  However, if for some reason
you are installing this separately from an archive, this is what you do:

1. Go to your BotJohnny main folder

2. Find a sub-folder called "Plug-Ins"

3. If you do not have a folder in here called "ACE" then create one.

4. Copy all these files into this new folder.


---IMPORTANT NOTES

If you have CRbot installed to a a different folder to "ACE", then
you need to do some more work..!  It's a good idea to do this before
you add any CRbot profiles.  (Otherwise you will have to change them
individually also)

1. When BotJohnny has loaded click the bottom (top left) marked "Profile".

2. In the right hand list, double click "ACE"

3. Click the "Paths and Files" tab.

4. Next to where it says "Bot Sub-Folder" type in the name of the folder.

5. Click OK.


---USING IT FROM BOTJOHNNY

Click "add" at the top of the main window to add a new profile.  Make sure
the bot type is set to "Ace".  That's it.


---IMPORTANT NOTES

You should bear in mind the following before using this:

x  Deathmatch Teamplay does not work at all.
   

---CURRENT ISSUES WITH THIS RELEASE

x  No deathmatch teamplay options work
x  Client Latency and "Max No. of Bots" have no effect
x  Viewable weapons list doesn't work
x  "Auto adjust skill" does nothing
x  You can't edit bot chat.  (Ace doesn't yet have chat)



---VERSION HISTORY

VERSION 1.3

x  Spawning random deathmatch bots now works as for any other bot
x  "Seamless" integration into BotJohnny
x  Support for "connect" and "hostname" multiplayer options



VERSION 1.2b

x  Deathmatch - spawning specific bots now works

x  Capture the Flag - you can choose the teams you want

x  Capture the Flag - you can also choose your own team


VERSION 1.2a  (FIRST RELEASE)

x  DEATHMATCH
   - stupid way of selecting random bots
   
x  SKILL LEVELS
   - although A.C.E. does not have a "skill 0" so you have to ignore the first one in
     the list..!!!

x  OPTIONS
   - dynamic learning
   - bot brain
