Title: "Bots Available to Play" page broken
Post by rbarreira on Apr 25^th, 2012, 7:21am

This page used to have a list of past bots available on the server that could be started up, but now it's strangely looking like an individual bot's page instead:

The "Play now"
-> "Bots available"

links to:

http://arimaa.com/arimaa/gameroom/botLadderAll.cgi

I wonder if when the advanced ladder was set up, did it replace the link you have? Was that a bookmark or something that is linked to from the gameroom?

That link also starts a window to play against the chosen bot, whereas the page I was talking about just starts up the bot and makes it wait for a game (useful for bot developers to test their bots against server bots).

It is linked from the gameroom, if you go to Players -> Top Rated Bots -> Bots Available To Play (a rather obscure link, so yes I did have a bookmark too).
