I could see this working like the following.
Every zone could have several several grids that would have level ranges per grid. For example, there would be a grid that would patrol throughout Crushbone for levels 1 - 5 in the entrance. Then, another grid in Crushbone that the bot would switch to once they've leveled beyond 5 specifically set for his level. Once he's maxed out for that zone, he'd move on to another zone.
You're looking at a crap load of work.... :p You'd have to maybe add new fields in the grids table that specified level range - minlvl - maxlvl - for bots. This way, bots could reason which grid to jump on.
Basically, to my knowledge you want a way to make a bot community... Yeah, you're looking at a major project. But it is possible..

It's funny that you mentioned that. Back in Dark Horizons, we ported the Alice bot onto one of our NPCs. God, I wish I had a backu p of the quests we had for DH. I lost it all. :(
