[Release] ns_prometheus waypoints, for ns_prometheus & ns_prometheus_b34 Options

[madmax2]

First, I just want to say, thanks Cheeseh for all the work you put into RCbot. I've been playing Natural Selections with them since v1.0 of NS & I think it was before 0.29 of RCbot. I have had many fun LAN games with my nephews over the years.

I made this waypoint a couple years ago because I really liked the looks of the map, but could not find a waypoint on the web. Although I have been modifying NS waypoints made by others for years, this is the only one I've done entirely myself. I recently did some fixes to the waypoint and a lot of testing (again). I don't know if there is anyone out there still playing NS, but I wanted to give something back to the community.

All waypoints were placed manually, no auto waypointing, so its fairly clean paths, except areas where I was trying to coax the bots into doing something. The bots do fairly good, but it's not perfect, issues remain, more details are with waypoint readme. All vents are waypointed and all hives are often built in under 15 minutes (depending on the starting hive, i think). If anyone does try this, feedback is welcome.

I originally did the waypoint for the official NS3.2 beta version of the map (which was removed before the final release of NS3.2) and I recently converted it to the b34 version of the map. I think the official NS3.2 beta version is slightly newer than the b34 version. Both maps are nearly identical.

I recently checked, and ns_prometheus_b34 can be found in this forum post:

I got the official NS3.2 beta version from the beta 1 patch (ns_install_patch_v32-beta1.exe), the NS3.1 to NS3.2beta1 patch. I haven't been able to locate this patch on the web recently. Also, if you do find this patch, don't install it over the top of your NS3.2 final, it will probably mess it up. Extract it to a temporary folder and get the map files from there. If anyone knows where to get the official final release of the map, please post a link.
