Ok, then hereby we declare that each robot will have an unique ID
The IDs will be given at the start of the game. We already more or less
agreed that having more than 256 rbots in the game would be unpractical
so an ID of 1 byte should suffice, I guess...

Ok, I C.

Hm, ok. I'll see if I can embed it in the draft for the Robotz spec. I'm
putting together...

Not too hard. I've taken some courses in building languages and compilers :-)
Maybe I can put a very first draft of what I've cooked up so far on the list
today, otherwise it'll have to wait till after the weekend...
