Bots do not have to modify data, they only need to read it ;) I am still doing it the 'proper' way for viewing/walking to vectors, or any kind of processing data. The only thing i am limited to is with reading data. This 'hack' gives me the ability to read the data i need to make my bot function :)

It should even be possible to remove all entity classes in a mod and start from scratch. :-) Obviously this is not useful for plugin authors, but realise that things you may want to view/modify in a plugin may not exist in some mods at all. Example: Perhaps someone makes an instagib mod and removes the health and armor from a player. Players are either alive or dead. What should happen if a plugin tries to modify the health of a player then? Of course there are ways to handle any example like that, but it would require the mod author to implement things he never uses. Perhaps a few interfaces can be defined that a mod author can choose to implement, if they apply to an entity. Maarten -- A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text.
