Title: How can I contact the developers?
Post by: kingdeath37 on December 10, 2017, 10:37:03 AM
I wish to get in tact with the developers behind this server, I'm studying software engineering at my university and wish to do my practice on this nostalgia of a game.
I played the original BOTS Acclaim back when it was still open and played on this server with 2 or 3 accounts back in 2012.
It would be an honor to work on reviving this game :)

Edit: To add to this, I'm currently studying Python and JavaScript. and a bit C#

unfortunately, development on this game was stopped and there's no reversing it, so while your offer is appreciated there's nothing that can be done.

that said, the servers actually coded in c# and the only python we've used is for model-based transitioning, so despite that I'm unsure what you could've helped with. hope you enjoy(ed) the game nonetheless.

as soon as it stops paying for itself. the game's self sustainable as it's stable enough to not require a significant amount of outside maintenance, and bills are on autopay to the zylon paypal. as long as the game makes enough for the bills to pay themselves, there's no reason for the game to go down.
