Bots

We made some bots. You may have seen them on my server, now you can see them on your own.

Holes

Bots live in holes. When you plant a hole, a certain type of bot comes out. The idea is that if you want zombies, you plant a bunch of zombie holes, start a minigame and they work. You can of course customize their behaviour using events as well..

Events

Input Events

onBotDeath
onBotActivated - when the player clicks on the bot
onBotSpawn
onBotReachBrick - when the bot reaches his "goToBrick" brick (see output events below)
