This is a simple example of a RLBot bot written in C#. It is designed to be easy to understand and modify, making it a great starting point for anyone looking to create their own RLBot bot in C#.

Getting Started

To get started, you will need to have the following software installed on your computer:

• Visual Studio (or any C# IDE of your choice)
• .NET 10 SDK
• RLBot v5

Source code for this example can be found in the Bot directory.

Running the Bot

To run the bot, follow these steps:

1. In RLBot's GUI, click "Add" in the top right.
2. Click "Add Folder" in the menu that pops up and select this folder.
   • You can also click "Add File" and select "example.bot.toml" but if you rename the file then you will have to re-add your bot.
   • See the RLBot wiki for more information on bot.toml files.
3. Your bot should now appear in the GUI; drag it onto either the blue or orange team.
4. Click "Start Match" to start a match with your bot.
   • If you click "Extra" in the bottom left and select "Continue and Spawn" for "Existing match behaviour" then you can reload your bot without restarting the match.

Bob

The bob.toml file is a required config file for submitting bots to the botpack and tournaments. It tells our automated build system how to build your bot from its source code.

[[config]]
project_name = "CSharpExample"
bot_configs = ["example.bot.toml"]

[config.builder_config]
builder_type = "csharp"
# Optional, use if there are multiple sub-projects that can be built
# base_dir = "ExampleBot"

• project_name is the name of your bot project. It can be anything you like, but try to make it unique.
• bot_configs is a list of all the bot.toml files that are associated with this project. In this example, we only have one bot, so we only have one bot.toml file.
• builder_type is the type of builder to use for this project. In this case, we are using the csharp builder, which is designed for C# projects. This builder will look for a .csproj file in the same directory as the bob.toml file and use it to build the bot.
• base_dir is an optional field that can be used if there are multiple sub-projects that can be built. If you have multiple sub-projects, you can specify the correct base directory for the project using this field. We only have one folder, Bot/, so we don't need to use this field.
