Yes, we need to have AI, for single player matches, especially since network might not be up for a while.

Well, it depends on the robot what you can do, so it has to be variable in some way. Maybe in the robot descriptor, there can be something which indicates what functions it perfoms, IE hang, herd... The AI could select one to do and go with that.

Hm... Maybe. What do you think they'd effect, exactly? Maybe it could just make the AI slower at reacting/making decisions.

Sure.

Hard, but eventually.
