<< I've never played Bomberman, but I have played quite a bit of pacman and I
 do AI research.  The ghosts find pacman by finding which of the four
 directions it can travel will move it the most towards pacman.  Example:
 If pacman is three tiles down and seven to the right then the ghost would
 move right.  The ghosts seem to lock on packman more as the game goes on
 because they only "see" pacman some of the time.  When the game first
 starts the ghosts only see pacman somewhat like 1/10th of the time.  As the
 time goes on though they see him more and more.  Believe it or not, at the
 time it came out pacman was cuting edge AI. >>

Believe it or not, my tiny numbskull couldn't think of that any sooner, so
it's sure cutting edge to me!  Thanks a bundle.
