fox updated foxBot! ExAI-based Multiplayer Coop Bots with a new update entry: v1.7 Read the rest of this update entry... 1687484076 This is a good idea, though I don't know enough about SRB2's file i/o code to put this in for v1.7. I think ideally in the future, this override could also just...

Oh no! An update! See the v1.5 changelog for more info. Among other things, this version adds support for all vanilla character abilities, which should improve custom character support a little. For example, Shadow now works out of the box: For characters that still don't quite work right, a...

General Changes: Fix disconnecting bots being unable to teleport Fix position resetting when using "setbot" command as a spectator AI Behavior Changes: Fix Tails again attempting to fly-attack underwater or grounded targets Fix Tails constantly trying to grab rings with flight (unless already...

Quick bug report - network clients seem to halt with the following error: This appears to originate from Lua\Hub\ULDCEmblems.lua:55, due to the "load" code running as soon as the lua is loaded (e.g. joining a network game). It looks like this could be safely wrapped inside a "Load" function...

A new update is released! As before, please view the list of changes in the v1.3 update entry. This is a relatively minor update that mostly fixes a few issues that fell through the cracks (such as the ring issue Modunlami reported above). It also improves Fang's combat AI, which should now be...
