Hi People,

Here is the second major release of Ladmo, a bot and limited borg for Bolo.
This is version 0.60.

While the version is at only 0.60, Ladmo is very competitive with Indy 2.02.

A brief list of changes from previous versions:

- Uses Pill views to update info.
- Black Lists bases it is unable to get to.
- Improved Attack Tank.
- Improved fixing pills at a distance.
- Clears walls around allied pills
- Fixed some refueling bugs.
- Automatic CPU sensing, which changes some internal options when CPU
power is deemed to be low.
- A new Attack Pill Method, called "Advanced Attack Pill", which makes
Ladmo the first bot to use a wall trick to take pills at times.
Still needs some work, but is definitely an improvement.
- Regular Attack Pill is now an improved version of the "New Attack
Pill" in earlier versions which uses just a regular shoot and run
method.
- Some borg fixes and changes.
- Some strategy changes.
- Various other improvements and additions.

Read the Revision History inside the Read Me for a complete listing of changes.

As always, comments and suggestions are welcome!

Thanks,
John
