and like many others I have gotten tired of
waiting foranother certain bot to become available...

Rather than getting tired for a certain bot to become availible, i would
like to thank the person that spent
what must be hundreds of hours making and updating
it for us all to use free of charge.

hi :)

which type of Bot do you prefer ?

for me i prefer Preston, as i can do so much more with it
than anyother bot because i dont have any scripting
knowhow. ( although im trying to learn Evo )

i'm sure most of the users that can script will pick other
bots but in reality most AW's user base cant script.

so whats your fav ?

yeah i really hope he will too,
do you think hes moved on from AW
anyone heard from him ?

i fully agree that Evo and Xeagologot (SP?) have much more features but i
and anyone else that knows
nothing about scripting can do alot more with a Preston as its all GUI
controlled, for instance
i set up a tour where a preston trleported an avie round the world read off
some interesting facts about certain loctions
had next / back and home commands all really easy for me to do, that would
be impossible for me to do on a bot that
needs a script if i couldnt get a pre-made one as i cant script, hey ive
been in AW for over 6 years if i could
get the hang of learning the language i would :) .


Ohh and a Preston can see chat in a world Global too if its a global bot

event phrase = empty
action = misc / log
reply field blank
long entry %a %r ( %a person's name who speaks / %r text thats said )

Okay expanding a bit i used to love hamfons buildbot, but it wasnt updated
to cope with the 3rd axis rotation, so i dont use that anymore
but for building stuff i use YASBB and the wonderfull PropTool, between them
chatbot and Preston i'm pretty much covered.

Ohh and i leave the terrain Stuff to Tengel as he's one of the best and
knows what hes doing lol
