AIN / INV messages

• There was a bug
• GameBots wasnt sending AIN (AddItem) message
  for every item bot picked up.
• AIN (AddItem with int ID 0)
• bot has a new item in the invetory
• INV (AddItem with int ID ! 0)
• Bot picked up something
• You will get two AddItem messages for the first
  pickup of weapon / ammo.

ADD_ITEM listener is screwed
If you want to listen for a pickup, listen on
those messages ADD_AMMO, ADD_ARMOR,
ADD_EXTRA, ADD_HEALTH, ADD_WEAPON !!! Do not
just listen on ADD_ITEM!!!

Bot Skill and other INIT stuff

• INIT message
• Send to create a bots body inside UT2004
• Many parameters
• body.initializer
• Used to construct INIT message
• Configure inside postPrepareAgent()
• body.initializer.setBotSkill(int)

GunTest bot
Bot map GunTestBot must be run on the GunTest
map. Upload DM-GunTest.ut2 into UT2004/maps,
restart UT2004. GunTest bot will collect all the
weapons and then it will show how to shoot with
them (basic stuff).
