Changes made to the Robot Testing Environment

v0.92    next release (todo list).
  • Will finish scripting and allow scripts in response to bot actions.
  • Ability to define (some) custom variables for use in scripts.
  • More flow control in the script.
  • Rejection of user specified IP addresses to prevent someone locking system.
  • Ability to disconnect bot deliberately (and optional message telling it that it got disconnected).
  • Other suggestions welcome.

v0.91    lots of changes
  • script that runs at login.  See scripting documentation.  This was the bulk of the changes.  Please report any bugs/feature requests.
  • added missing item to message list (1007 CHANNEL)
  • icon added    this was just a quick icon.  If anyone has something better, I'll consider (and probably accept) it.
  • System now shows IP address at activation.  It will also rewrite the string for any incoming connections that come from 127.0.0.1 to show the IP address that the system has on the Internet.  If anyone has a problem with this causing bots to fail, let me know and I'll add a switch to disable it.
  • New command line option "-script <filename>".  The server will load and run the named file as a BotBox Script (.bbs) when a bot connects, immediately following the 1007 CHANNEL message.  A LongFileName compatible function is used to open the scripts. ;)

v0.9    initial release.
  • Control is done entirely through the console.
  • No auto-responses.
  • Command line option "-debug" to enable extra messages.
