I'm not sure if I want an Amiga port >of RobotWar. I don't have enough time as it is. The three great time killers If you liked RobotWar by Muse, you should get a copy of my Amiga port of "C-Robots". It is virtually the same as RobotWar, except that instead of a BASIC-type language, it uses a subset of the C language. It allows up to 4 robots to compete at a time, and has a debug mode similar to the one in RobotWar, although I have not yet added a "slow speed" debug mode like RobotWar had. It uses any editor you want, and can create "compiled" robots that you can give to other players without them being able to see the program used to operate the robot. The latest version I released is 2.3w, and should be availble on the Fish disks (357, I believe), or directly from me at the following address: David Wright 4262 Bennington Brunswick, OH 44212 USA Just send me a disk with a note saying what it's for.
