First real "bug" I've come across with the Frikbot
I just now came across the first real "bug" with the Frikbots. I'm waypointing the Ukpak series, and am on Ukpak8. There is a pentagram that requires a button to be shot through some bars to lower the platform the pent is on. The bots should be able to obtain this powerup just fine, but I found that they don't understand when a func_button is set to "-1" health, which this one is for some reason. I don't know why the mapper set the health of the button to -1 rather than a positive integer, but the Frikbots will not shoot the button, as I'm sure they only understand health that is > 0.
I'm sure the Frikbot code could easily be modified so they understand they have to shoot anything with health greater than or less than "0", but the problem is people would most likely not download a new version for just this one fix... The other alternative is to fix the .ent file of the map, but then people will most likely find a link to the original map and not use my fixed version, then you would have bots stuck up against the bars all the time. It seems that my only solution is to have the bots ignore the pentagram on this map.

I can, but I wonder how many people will know what to do with it. I'll include a simple .txt file explaining it...
