Good idea.

As for moving, that's quite simple...all we need to do is support typedef 
actor and add_actor_command to keep track of the bot's position...The 
pathfinder should port easily.
Also, I think a queue would be nice so we can have the bot complete multiple 
actions on a timed basis. Since the client is pretty much done, I'll 
probably have time to write a patch for this.

I may not have much time, but I wanted to split off local chat, and make 
it configurable. The configuration file should contain patterns of 
player names and messages, and a list of possible responses to 
these messages. Dunno how I'll do it yet, but that was my plan.

As for your points: moving will require a pathfinder, maybe the client 
pathfinder can be ripped out. I'm not gonna work on trading code yet, but 
the messaging system sounds like a fun thing to have.

No other ideas yet,

What features should go into elbot before 0.3 is released? I've been thinking 
about the following:

Move Command:
 I've already kinda started on this, although I have not been able to get it 
to work yet. It's kinda over my head still.

Simple trading framework:
 Mostly I would like to be able to have the bot hold the owners stuff and give 
it back to him. After that we can move on to more complicated things like 
trading with others.

Messaging system:
 It would be neat to have the bot save messages for people. When the bot sees 
that person it would pm them something like "I have # saved message(s) for 
you. PM me with #my_msgs to read them" This sounds kind of complicated since 
we would need some kind of storage system for the messages.

I'd say if we can implement 2 of these features we would be justified in 
bumping the version number to 0.3.

Any other ideas?

You've been added, and subscribed to this email list.
You now have CVS access, so feel free to apply the command line input patches. 
It should function so that if an options from the command line override the 
config file. Make sure it doesn't change the way the config file works.

Sounds good. :)
You're 10 times the programmer I am. There are still things in the bot that I 
have not been able to wrap my head around. Just look at the crap I'm trying 
to pull to add movement commands. :)
Please try to comment your code as much as possible so I can learn from it. As 
a matter of fact, I should go though and comment more on the things I did.

Test passed :)

Anyway, I'm thinking about splitting off a few more files from the main 
bot: connection.[ch] for everything to do with sending to/receiving from 
the server, and local.[ch] which shall handle everything in local chat. 
For the time being, these files will be small, but I expect especially 
local.c to grow substantially over time. Splitting it off now keeps the 
main code clean and small.

Comments? Suggestions? "Take your bloody ideas elsewhere, I'm removing 
your cvs access"?

Greetings!

 I'm posting this to test the new elbot development email list.
