Custom Bots Suggestion

To start off, love your game.  Can not stop playing. I see a few suggestions for bots in the forums and here is my suggestion.  

Each Bot has a "battery" for power. Crude had a battery power of 50, Basic 75, ect.  You can spend your power on different 'skills'.

5 power carry one item, 10 power carry two items, ect.

10 power for slow walking, 20 power normal speed, 30 power fast, 40 power very fast, ect.

5 power for action (pick up, crop, cut, milk, ect) for slow, 10 power for normal, 15 for fast, ect.

Maybe one for brain, 5 power for just commands, 10 power for commands and a forever, 15 power for commands, forever and one repeat, ect.

So you can have a slow bot, but it can carry a lot.  OR a fast walking bot, pick milk cows fast, but only can carry one item.

Nice idea. Thanks!

And I thought I had a hard time understanding the game as it is! :-D
Could this be an optional feature?

I ask because I want to use this game to teach kids programming, and if things get too complicated, it won't help them learn :-)

Don't see why the Bot can't start out with a default power for all the 'skills'.
