Scriptable bot servants

[Rajatapaus]

Name: scriptable bot servants

Purpose: Serve land owners and users visiting the land, provide good atmosphere and bring life to the land.

Description: they would be like user avatars except the land owner can program their behavior, and the bot would only reside on the landowners land. They are labeled as bots so regular users could distinguish them from normal users. Their creation would cost mana to make them feel exquisite and to prevent spamming.

Use case examples:

• The bot could give pamphlets to passersby as advertisements
• Serve drinks for novelty purposes
• Participate in games
• Chat with players
• Respond to player given commands, for example, if a player says a keyword the bot provides information about the keyword, or if the player requests the bot to complete an action, the bot would act accordingly

I could use a good chess coach. I'm helping with the VR Visions Program and would like to get some additional info. Are you on Decentraland's Slack? If not, please join and reach out to me, @ekelmenson!

Not sure about the mana cost. As long as NPCs are limited to their owners land it should be ok to operate them without mana. If dynamic elements require mana for operation the world will be very static.

Is there any update on this direction?
