Help for TacticalBot:

This is the Help file for the TacticalBot. In this file you will 
have instructions on how to use the Bot.

The TacticalBot (TactBot) is intended to teach new players how to 
get started and survive the first few days, and to remind the more 
experienced players of the basics.

In order to play competitively, you really *must* get a program 
such as ZOC, SWATH, etc., and send in the registration for it.  
It's cheap, and worth every cent.  The program will do many many 
things for you automatically:  locate and plot the course to the 
nearest trading ports; do the actual trading for you automatically 
and very profitably while you're off raiding the fridge;  move 
you from one sector to another scanning every sector ahead of you;  
and stopping when anything nasty is ahead!  It will locate enemy 
forces for you, and will perform most every function, except the 
basic strategy.

Introduction:

This BOT will be available to player and provide tutorials on 
topics they choose. The Bot runs in Observer Mode, meaning it
will not attack, defend, etc. 

Players can access the TactBot via setting their SS channel to
the channel posted by TactBot in the Daily Log. Player then 
types "tactbot" on SS and receives a list of info, 
commands, etc. When a player is completed with the BOT, it 
will just sit in space waiting until the next time it is 
needed.

BOT Menu:

The Bot Menu is structured with various components for players
to access. It looks like the following example:

and the bot would display choice #2, which is Playing Good 
(Blue). If they want choice #3, then its "tactbot 3", etc.
