Description:	A modified version of fraggle's (Simon Howard) modified version of "The Immortal"'s (Sal Vince) Computer Deathmatch mod. Essentially this is the same mod that makes deathmatch with "bots" (modified monsters to look and act like players) possible on any sourceport that supports .deh files, with a couple changes: Changelog: 4.0 from version 2.0 (by fraggle) -Bots don't drop weapons or ammo anymore -Bots have much lower pain chance, thus removing the ability to exploit them using the Chaingun -Pistol bot, Shotgun bot and Plasma rifle bot all have the same speed (close to the player's running speed) -Rocket Launcher bot and Chaingun bot both have the same speed (close to the player's walking speed) Considered things: I have considered adding a Chainsaw and SSG bot, but decided against it because 1. The Chainsaw bot wouldn't do well in DM and 2. The only way to make a SSG bot is make a bot that fires 2 Shotgun shots over the span of 2 tics, which would make it unfairly accurate.

Description             : A modified version of fraggle's (Simon Howard) 
			  modified version of "The Immortal"'s (Sal Vince) 
			  Computer Deathmatch mod. Essentially this is the
			  same mod that makes deathmatch with "bots" 
			  (modified monsters to look and act like players) 
			  possible on any sourceport that supports .deh files, 
			  with a couple changes:

Changelog:
			  4.0 from version 2.0 (by fraggle)
			  -Bots don't drop weapons or ammo anymore
			  -Bots have much lower pain chance, thus removing the 
			   ability to exploit them using the Chaingun
			  -Pistol bot, Shotgun bot and Plasma rifle bot all 
			   have the same speed (close to the player's running speed)
			  -Rocket Launcher bot and Chaingun bot both have 
			   the same speed (close to the player's walking speed)

Considered things:
			  I have considered adding a Chainsaw and SSG bot, 
			  but decided against it because 1. The Chainsaw bot 
			  wouldn't do well in DM and 2. The only way to make 
			  a SSG bot is make a bot that fires 2 Shotgun shots 
			  over the span of 2 tics, which would make it unfairly 
			  accurate.

Usage			 : Patch doom2.exe with DeHackEd 
		      	  (or load it with -deh on most sourceports) 
			  and use the -file parameter to load comp-dm4.wad
			  with it.

To play you need to start a deathmatch with you as 
			  the only player and -respawn, maps 1-5 are available 
			  for play against bots, you can also play with 
			  3 other players.
