Rbots is a project to create a 'bot' for Jedi Knight. A bot is a computer controlled player for multiplayer games. It should react and play just like a human player - it has health, shields, limited ammo & weapons and when it dies it will 'respawn' to allow the game to continue. Multiple bots will battle amongst themselves as well as any number of human players.

Among the upgrades is a new Editing Help section that includes answers to questions I get asked frequently on the Massassi Temple's Editing Forum, as well as downloadable editing resources. I will be adding quite a bit more to the editing help section in the near future.

Nextgame.it: Tell us something about the multiplayer aspect of the game, we have heard news about a mode called Protect The Queen and about a cooperative mode too.

Stephen Shaw: Protect the Queen will be a team game in which the players will divide themselves into two sides, the Federation and Sith, and the Naboo guard and Jedi. The Jedi / Naboo will have to escort safely escort the queen to a location to score. The game can also be reversed so that the Trade Federation / Sith must escort a Nemoidian to a location in order to score. There won't be a way to cooperatively play the single player missions, so the cooperative aspect will be limited mostly to PTQ and possible some other MP missions. We are developing additional multiplayer levels beyond these two as well.
