Decorate Bot

[Gustavo6046]

What I mean is, when you "summonfriend" a monster, once it sees a enemy, it pursues the enemy right? Well, until his enemy is dead. Then he starts to follow the player wherever he go. But sometimes it's annoying when this bot goes wherever you go because you wish it could go by itself through the level.

EDIT: Also check your repository and try pulling the new commits from mine!

Well, I don't know how to do that, at most I think one could have to that the bot stays at a specified range from the player so it isn't as annoying.

Also did some major changes to the bot attack behaviour, its now able to use the weapons it has picked up! altough the +PICKUP flag doesn't work on zandro, it does work in zdoom, altough I have been thinking of giving the bot a random weapon once it spawns.
