Description
-----------
Lithium CTF Pack is a Quake-C pack which includes ThreeWave Capture The
Flag 4.0 and Lithium Bots.

For instructions on how to play Capture The Flag please read CTF.TXT.

NOTE: If you think Lithium Bots are too easy, try writing SKILL 3
          at the console. If you still think they're dumb, then play
          Steven Polge's Reapers.

Features:

+ Attack with all the weapons (excepting Grappling Hook)
+ Sorted list of frags that includes bots and humans.
+ Up to 10 LithiumBots and 10 Helpers can be created.
+ Know how to jump to pick up items and weapons.
+ Helper Bots!: They help you to destroy LithiumBots.
+ If TEAMPLAY is 1, you can't damage Helper Bots.
+ Play CTF (though they rarely pick up the flag -- I'm working on this).
+ Etc...

Changes since version 0.8:

+ Capture The Flag 4.0!!! Code updated from version 3.5 to 4.0
+ Improved Grenade Launcher, Super Shotgun and ThunderBolt code.
+ Improved Follow Mode.
+ Improved Text Mode (in Spanish).
+ Improved AI: bots now follow their enemies, jumping if necessary.
+ Dinamic Level Mapping - Still in development, not activated in this
  beta.
+ Pain frames removed.
+ Useless messages removed.
+ Fixed a bug that caused the bots to stay invisible while dead.
+ Fixed a bug that caused the bots to survive in some liquids.
+ Fixed a bug that caused backpacks contain negative amounts of ammo.
+ Fixed a bug that caused that the player could not respawn sometimes after
  being telefragged.
+ Fixed a bug that caused the bots to leave an incorrect corpse after being
  telefragged.

Changes since version 0.7:

+ Improved AI. The velocity of the bot is now based on skill level.
+ Bots now wait some seconds before respawning. This reduces the amount
  of telefrags.
+ Gibs now stay less time in the level. This avoids the 'no free edicts'
  error.
+ Time and sounds of pain repaired, and based on skill level.
+ Fixed bot numbers and names.
+ Bots will not try to pick up an item if they see they can't reach it
  after a period of time.
+ Jumping code improved (they fall less often into lava or slime)
+ Drown added.
