Kobaz,

I think some sort of sed script or similar for setting up bots/eqemuloginserver/etc would be nice. I started to go down
that path, but then realized that some people might not have a stable internet connection. I've got a fast one and
even getting the maps/source/etc only takes me 3 or 4 minutes, but should the SVN download fail you might need to
restart that process.

The problem with the sed scripts would be that you need to have downloaded the code repos, obviously, in order to run
said (or 'sed', heh) scripts. I'm not so sure building that into the 'setup script' would be good. However, we might be
able to make these as other little 'helper scripts' in the main folder (where the get scripts are) and allow the user to
optionally run these. That would be handy for me personally. Maybe a 'enable_bots.sh', 'disable_bots.sh', and
'setup_loginserver.sh' or something to do the appropriate tasks.

Just a few thoughts I had, when I started to go down that path. I just prettied up the scripts and posted it for some
feedback though, so I haven't headed far down the path.
