Yeah, maybe it was just something with me for a bit there. Anyway, I can get there now.

Sign up on the address posted earlier. Signing there does the same as here, it's just easier for SilverStar to read it.

So, now I have made a robot (hypothetically. I really copied one of the test robots and renamed the class and file). How do I test it? How do I setup a "competition" with my robot in it so I can verify it works?

Ok, simplest thing would be to play a competition between 4 of your own robots.

Make a "matches" subfolder in your RoboCoder folder (not in the package class folder, but in the root "robocoder" folder. Now run "java GraphicView record x x x x" from the command prompt. x is the 4-digit team number (with 0s on the left to pad). Let it record.... after the timer goes to '0'. Close the window - now run 'java GraphicView play lastmatch'
