During the development of a bot, it would be useful for me (and I assume for others) to build the same .exe for different bots; and then to be able to test those using the game engine.

The engine can make this possible if I can give it an argument to pass on to the exe that identifies the bot on my side. The bot.json file seems to be a good place for me to specify this.

Maybe a new entry called RunArgumentcan be added -- like so:

{
    "Author":"John Doe",
    "Email":"[email protected]",
    "NickName" :"John",
    "BotType": "CSharp",
    "ProjectLocation" : "",
    "RunFile" : "Reference\\bin\\Debug\\Reference.exe"
    "RunArgument": "variationZ"
}

Then, your bot will receive three arguments for every round in the game:

1. Your player key registered in the game
2. The directory for the current game files
3. The value of RunArgument (if it is not an empty string)

Hi

Not sure if this is an issue, but the round number is 1 on the first round, denoted as 0 in the log and then is still 1 for the actual 1st round- is the just limited to me?
If this is intentional, how should I go about determining a fresh game state if not by a round number of 0?

-- for the python bots

1] Maybe get users to install the requirements under a virtualenv then site-packages will be left clean.

2] For the python bots there is a missing requirements.txt file referred to in the documentation. When the file is ready am I suppose to use pip to get the dependencies as there seems to be missing command to execute the install option against requirements.txt

Is it possible to add a param to the run command to exit the program when a bot raises an exception?

Hi,

We are interested in using this project as part of a project for a university course, but we noticed it has no license. Would it be possible to add an open source license?

Thank you!
