issues/todo:
[] spies still cannot sap (*engine issue?)
[] demo's cannot set pipe traps (yet)
[] bots don't always use teleports (some situations only)
KNOWN limitations:
All of these limitations are effects of the Orange Box SDK lack
of 3rd party bot support, which are caused by the double speed/double
timing issue:
[] bots still cannot crouch
[] pyro's flame still does not show
[] sometimes engineers can't select wrench
[] other bots sometimes can't select the weapon they want
[] sometimes bots use melee weapon from long range
[] soldier rocket jumps are not perfect
[] scout double jumps are not perfect
[] bots can still move when bonked
