Pod Faq
...Most questions I receive via e-mail are already answered either in the readme or in this FAQ :)
Why is it called "POD-Bot" ?
POD is an abbreviation for "Ping of Death". I called it that way because it was derived from the "High Ping Bastard Bot" Botman is doing. And if youlook at the Bots Ping they always have a Ping of 5 and the very first Generation of Bots did Headshots all the time, so you know why, huh ?
Who is this Botman Guy everbody seems to mention ?
Botman was the very first who implemented a Method to hook every existing Halflife MOD DLL. Since you don't usually
have the original Sources of e.a. Counterstrike, DLL Hooking is the only way to write extensions (Bots) for it. He also was so
kind to put his Sources on his Webpage, so that everybody could see how it is done and was able to do Bot Programming.
Please visit his Website at: http://www.planethalflife.com/botman/ and also try his HPB-Bot which supports several MODs.
Botman is in no way affiliated with POD-Bot or me so if you have any questions concerning POD mail me instead of him.
Who is the POD-Bot Team ?
There isn't any Team. I (Count Floyd) am responsible for all the Bot Coding & Design.
Two friendly people at nuclearbox.com (Auxois and Smok3) are doing all the Web Stuff for me there.
Then there are the pages at botepidemic.com which were done by runab0ut and hosted by ze0. If you've got questions or suggestions about the POD Internet pages please mail them instead of me. Furthermore there are a lot of nice supportive
people like Bluesman (moderator at the forum), TAZ (great waypointer, good moderator),
Bot_Guy (beta-testing & waypointing), Chris (beta-testing), Fairus (did invest some time doing a Community Site) and
Kangaroo (always supportive & helpful, 1st person ever who posted in my forum, will never forget that!) to name just a few.
I know there are a lot more I...
