: Why don't you just decrease the damage the bots do, that's how I'd have done
: it.
I thought about this... I thought about decreasing the amount of damage the SPNKR missile does, but then that would take away from the "realism" of making it seem like I am playing against real players. Plus, I would get used to a Missile that is underpowered compared to real LAN play. Not to mention that ALL of the weapons damage should be ramped accordingly... too much work! :-)
Still, I just found a solution, minutes after I posted my last diatribe. It was simply a matter of creating an MML script. Somehow, this solution eluded me... but it does what I want it to do... start the player at 3x health. Granted, I would much rather have it be a part of the Physics file, for Infinity compatiblity, but I guess I will have to live with an Aleph only solution, unless somebody has any additional info.
