lol, all i need is a bot? easy as cake, I'll just call R2D2 and play with him...

sarcasm aside, my programming skills are, how to put it, insufficient. I can edit a bash to change the path, I can edit the repositories to add something, but changing a game to do what I want? nope.

Maybe I should explain myself better. I'm looking for a finished (as in playable and fun without extra effort, not necessarily all the levels complete) game. Something i can install from a .deb or from inside a repository and doesn't need any assembly (the opposite of "some assembly required" ). It does not need to be a Stars! clone, I just put that as an example of a game I enjoyed for years. MoO is fine but a little basic, something in the spirit of Settlers 2 wouldn't be too far off (that one had some serious resource management).

While I was writing this I found Widelands, a Settlers 2 clone that works on linux. I get the feeling that the "Build-12 Linux/i386 binary package" wont work, so I should go the "Build-12 Source Package" way?. When I get the tablet I'll continue to follow that thought.

Anyway, if anyone knows any games of that type that work on the N8x0 without too much trouble...

pd: english is not my first language (mother tongue?), so if something is not easy to understand it might be my brain translating literally from spanish. Any doubts about what I mean ask and I'll try to explain differently.
