foxBot Launcher!
================
Easily launch multiple instances of SRB2 to connect bots to your multiplayer server.
Sample configs of my own bots are included for reference, but not required - feel free to empty the provided "cfg" folder if desired.

Note that this is for Windows only, as it's just a simple .bat script.
foxBot itself supports any platform - and bots can now be added in-game! Please see the "bothelp" console command.

This script mostly exists as a legacy holdover from when adding bots wasn't supported. (< 2.2.10 or so)
However, it still has some useful functionality for mod testing, taking direct control of a bot, etc.

Usage
-----
1. Place the "bot" folder into your SRB2 directory. (e.g. "C:\Games\Sonic Robo Blast 2" - wherever it's located)
2. Start up the game as normal, add the foxBot pk3 addon, and start a multiplayer cooperative session.
3. Alt-tab out of the game, and navigate to the "bot" folder you placed earlier.
4. Run "bot-client.bat" - the following should display in a window:
	> Simple foxBot Launcher!
	> Please select a bot config (? = current configs, q = quit): _
5. As suggested, "?" will show a list of existing configs, and "q" will quit. Pressing "Tab" will cycle through the available configs / auto-complete.
6. Select one of the sample configs provided, or type a new name to create your own bot config.
7. Press "Enter" to confirm your selection - the game should launch and immediately attempt to connect to the multiplayer session you started in Step 2.
8. Go into the Multiplayer > Setup Player 1... menu as normal to set the name, skin, and color of the bot. Be sure to hit "Save As Default" at the bottom!
9. You're done! Either alt-tab back to your first instance of the game to play, or repeat Steps 4+ to connect additional bots to the game.

Potential Issues?
-----------------
* "Could not find srb2win.exe!"
The launcher is unable to locate your copy of SRB2 - please make sure you placed the "bot" folder in your SRB2 directory.

* Game hangs on "Connecting to Server..."
Ensure you've actually started a multiplayer cooperative session in Step 2.

* Everything's broken aah!
Please post your issue on the forum thread and I'll try to help out as best I can. :)
