how to run with bzrobots?

Post by artIsFun »

I want to run with bzrobots, but I need a little help. I compiled the latest source code on my mac, and ran into a few problems, but nothing I couldn't solve so far. My question (at least for now) is pretty basic: what should my command line look like for running a robot? I started a server, and bzflag in observer mode, and then I need to run bzrobots, right? This is what I tried:

./src/bzrobots/bzrobots -team red test@localhost:5154 bots/python/TestRobot.py

My bzfs terminal says Player test has joined, but after a few seconds that player is removed, and the bzrobot command dies silently (sometimes it dies with "Bus error"). I never see any bots join in the world. What am I doing wrong? What should I be doing to get started with bzrobots?
