Subject: more of dem bots

hard to explain, but once any bot gets killed by a sentry, the position of the sentry that killed them is stored. if there are no cyborgs, the bot who was killed goes cyborg and turns into one big sentry killer, basically.

if there is a cyborg already, the position of the sentry is used by that borg bot. cheating? not if you think about it, its direct communication that's just unseen, that's all.

right now its the same with a laser. if one bot gets killed by it, all bots know where it is and it becomes an 'enemy' priority. i don't have the bots reading player data, so if a player dies from a sentry or laser and the bots aren't in sight of the 'attacker' entity, then they don't know about it.

this is fun stuff now.
