Hi Bob,
how do you get a dead sb ?
OpenTestbed didn't handle sitting out players so far - as the bots buy in instantly ? Do you have a bot that sits out ?
Also I'm not sure if changes for sitting out players are as easy as the changes you did. For instance there are special rules when a player is allowed to sit in again (which are not so easy when considering 2,3,4-player games).
Without a patch-file it's also very hard to know exactly which places you want to have changed.
Also I'd appreciate a JUnit-Test for your issues - I won't commit changes to the core logic without a JUnit-Test that reproduces the original issue.
Without a test I cannot assure that people won't break stuff that has worked before.
Cheers
Stefan
