Remu$ Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Hey, We're looking for a bot/!@#$%^&*s programmer, We're starting up a new zone called privateer, We aren't done yet, we're trying to work it with ASSS, but we can start with bots if i can't get it done with ASSS. If you are interested, Please contact me at: oli4_dat_ben_ik@hotmail.com Thank you for your interest. Remu$
»Maverick Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Hiya, I have got a few questions; - What kind of bots do you need?- What is the zone about?- Are you going to use Mervbot or the TW Core? (if ASSS fails)- Why do you think your zone would succeed in comparison with other new zones?- Did you already look at www.mervbot.com for existing plugins? -MMaverick
ExplodyThingy Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 We aren't done yet, we're trying to work it with ASSS,Lets see if you can even run ASSS. I dare you to run one not on my or catids website.
Yupa Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 About switching to ASSS. Don't do it unless you meet these three requirements:1.) You need it. This one is very important. Don't move if you want 1 feature it can offer.2.) You can code. This is a must. You wont find anyone who will do it for you.3.) Slightly insane. Self explanatory. Usually fufilled by #2.4.) You have no population to speak of. I made the mistake of not knowing this' date=' and switched while I had a regular population. Only now, 8 months later do I have a population close to what I lost. If you meet those, you can *think* about moving to ASSS. In other words, make your bot work for you [img']http://www.ssforum.net/public/style_emoticons/default/blum.gif[/img]
Remu$ Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 Everybody, Quit quothing that thread MM, Thats why i want people to email me if their intrested, look i don't want to put the whole plan here on the boards, Could be stolen, I'll email you it. Look, we're trying to start using very good bots, then we'll try to switch to ASSS, if we know how to work with it, Me and TLordtango, Which will be making it are both new to the system, we need explanation and stuff, we're really doing our best (reading sites and forums). Thnx anyway.
50% Packetloss Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 1st off, no one will steal your ideas unless you are able to make a great zone out of it. Then every newb will be trying to start up a zone with your idea (example: CTF, which was a crap idea in the first place). So pretty much you have no control over who takes your ideas and i doubt its all that original either. Maybe you should complete your zone first, this includes all of the dev work and settings. That way you can tell if people like the idea; you dont need a bot to determine if players like the zone. The purpose of completeing the zone first is so that some poor bot programmer doesnt waste all his/her time making some crappy bot for you then it never is used because your zone was a failure in the first place. Ill be supprized if you find anyone to help you. Usually someone has to feel modivated, which requires some sort of connection to the zone's idea or they play consistantly in the zone. Helping out a zone that you could careless aboutt is unfullfiling, and often then zone owner is unappritative and just keeps asking for more junk to stick in thier zone. So I suggest, if you really want to get a zone started and you want a bot, do it yourself or actually obtain a population before asking some fool to help you out, that way you dont waste anyone's time and the bot maker will feel good that someone is acutally putting some use into his/her bot.
Dr Brain Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Unless you are a programmer, you wont be able to make ASSS work for your zone. Why? There are very few ASSS programmers, and *none* of them are avalible to help new zones.
»i88gerbils Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 -*BAD WORD*- server works for all the pre-made zones out there... Got a map, some settings. Put it up. Add a ball. People will have fun. -*BAD WORD*- Server works.
Remu$ Posted August 25, 2004 Author Report Posted August 25, 2004 Without a bot, The zone will suck. And it will be useless to play, I have looked for excisting plugins, Nothing fits me. I just need someone which has time for me to make it, And we really want to get trough with this. The setting have already been done, Map is half way, We'll complete this first, But we're looking bot programmers already, So we have one on time. So none of you guys really want to help me out with bots?
catid Posted August 26, 2004 Report Posted August 26, 2004 Would you accept a bot programmer that is an -*BAD WORD*-?
ExplodyThingy Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 Its funny because catid is making fun of i88gerbils As a sugestion, lay out the idea, and if it intrigues a devloper they might do it. Itll get to the publi eventually anyway
»i88gerbils Posted August 27, 2004 Report Posted August 27, 2004 That would hold true if I were a bot programmer...
Aileron Posted August 30, 2004 Report Posted August 30, 2004 No programmers, build a bot for MY up and coming zone...I am all the way done with MY map. Actually, I'm kinda accepting that I have to learn ASSS on my own, but if would be willing to help, pm >ME<.
Remu$ Posted August 30, 2004 Author Report Posted August 30, 2004 Don't advert in my topic Get you're own where they will -*BAD WORD*- at you..
Remu$ Posted September 2, 2004 Author Report Posted September 2, 2004 I already got someone who's willing to help me with my ASSS modules, So anyone in for the bots, or what?
»D1st0rt Posted September 9, 2004 Report Posted September 9, 2004 ROFL, you asked catid to work for your zone? HAHAHAHAHA
