When clicking the 'start a new bot', it downloads some files, and does some filename-mangling, but one is missed.

When generating bot 'test', the file test/training/hello_world_training.py in make_match_config_with_my_bot should not use 'python_example' / 'python_example.cfg' as path, but 'generated_name' / 'generated_name.cfg'

As mentioned in comments of #26

There are a few things that might be good to have consistent code style for. This issue is for discussing which code style we should have and how we best achieve this.

Hello,

This may seem like a dumb question, but I haven't found the answer anywhere. I don't see a version number on RLBOTGui, and don't see a version number for a specific bot (let's say Nexto).

So my question is : if I installed RLBOTGUI 6 month ago, am I playing the version of Nexto from 6 month ago ? Does it auto update ?

Thank you in advance for clarifying this. ☮️

I downloaded RLBot from the "Download RLBot for Windows" link on rlbot.org, and installed it with the default settings. It's the first time I've ever installed it on this machine.

Upon launching it, I get an error message saying "It looks like a recent change to RLBotGUI broke things for you, sorry! Very old versions are not able to auto-upgrade anymore, please check out our upgrade instructions to fix this."

The upgrade instructions page says that users need to download RLBotGUI from rlbot.org, and that the new RLBotGUI uses a launcher, and not an installer, but the latest release offered here and on the website, the .msi file, is an installer. I uninstalled and re-installed. Didn't fix anything.

The .exe file fails in the same way if RLBotGUI is installed.

If RLBotGUI is not installed, running the .exe file fails with an error message saying there's "No Python in %AppData%\Local\RLBotGUIX\Python37\python.exe"

I'm running Windows 10.

Is there something I'm missing? Is there supposed to be a launcher somewhere?

We use the ping command in a batch script to check if the user has an internet connection before installing/upgrading RLBot. Some users do not have ping installed on their machines, so RLBot fails to run for them.

Replace the ping command in the batch script with a Python script or tiny executable to check for an internet connection and install/upgrade RLBot.

The GUI got stuck after I accidentally started a match without any bots or humans. I had to restart the GUI and game to fix the issue.

Gray out Start Match when there aren't any players on each team.

Checking for conenction to pypi.org...

It looks like either you or PyPi is offline, skipping package upgrades.
If this is your first time running RLBotGUI, an internet connection is required to properly install!

Launching RLBotGUIX!

Why does this happen?

Would prevent the "it does nothing" problems...

I have tried both on a desktop and a laptop, with similar specifications, i.e.: Ubuntu 20.04.2, kernel 5.4.0-74-generic and 5.8.0-55-generic, nvidia 460.80.

Steam and rocket league work great.

I have tried the following:

• Reinstalling both steam and rocket league
• Reinstalling RLBotGUI
• With steam play compatibility on & off (mainly off, since as I read in discord the linux native version must be running)
• I have also tried on a VM with Windows 10, but I couldn't make it play there either because it couldn't find the game. But I prefer to make it play on linux, since in the VM the graphics card cannot be utilized and it is laggy.

Pleasy any help would be appreciated.

the background image for Mannfield_Snowy is missing

I use RLBot for a month already i think and now when i tried to open it Windows Defender said that this is a virus. I don't remember what was it (it already got deleted) but i think it was some type of a "Trojan.(something that starts with a v)". Now im scared to download it again. Did someone hack RLBot and made a virus update? Or how did this happen? Does anyone else have this issue?

This card is to just get Story Mode merged into RLBotGUI: https://github.com/azeemba/RLBotGUI

The only pending issue is that some folks saw the first game crash on startup. There is a fix pushed out and waiting confirmation. After that we should be good to get it merged.

The installer we currently use is under Virx instead of RLBot: https://github.com/VirxEC/RLBotGUIX-installer

Quite a bit of people has problem launching the chrome gui... so it would be good to implement some fallbacks like edge and legacy gui...

whenever I run the rlbotgui installer (.exe or .msi), it tells me to search for an app in the store and doesn't let me run it no matter what I try to do, I've tried to run other installers (example: Hamachi VPN) and they have worked fine

any ideas or recommendations on what I should do?

When will we get an update which adds all the new content from the last 2 months to rlbot?

After few conversations on Discord, me and @Darxeal came up with an update that fixes the cluttered Player Type card. I will try to explain what is the plan.

• Move scripts to a separate modal
• Add gamemode filtering
• Add gamemode subfilters
• Change behaviour of Human tile
• Rename card to Bots

Here is some examples of how the card could look with the changes:

We also discussed specifics on how should some of these changes work.

Card content changes:

All should work the same way as the card worked, except not include scripts.
Standard should include only bots that indicate they support standard in their config files.
Extra Modes should only show bots made for specific gamemode based on what subfilter is selected.
Other should show other bots, like memebots or script specific bots.

The Bots for scripts subfilter should show bots compatible with one or more of the currently selected scripts. The card should switch to Bots for scripts subfilter automatically if user exits the Scripts modal and atleast one script is enabled. If there is no script enabled and user switches to this subfilter, it should show info/warning message in place where the bot tiles would normally be.

All bots that dont have any category flags in their config will be shown in All gamemode only, as we don't know what that bot supports.

Human tile behaviour changes:

There should only exist one Human tile. It could on first run of gui be automatically put in Blue team. If Human tile is removed from a team it should be put back into the bot list. It should also be shown in all gamemodes and subfilters.

Optional quality of life changes:

Remove Recommendations button as it adds clutter and it looks like nobody is using it. Gamemodes/Subfilters should give a similar benefit.
Add scrolling feature as mentioned in #84.

Now that we have tabs/tags, the currently enabled scripts should be always be shown. In this screenshot, SideSwipe is enabled, but I have no idea unless I go to the correct tab:

I suggest we add a box above/below the teams with the names of enaled scripts. Each script should also have a button with a cross icon which disables the script, without needed to go to right tab.

Currently story mode implicitly assumes that the bot pack is already downloaded. We should block the "Start" button and provide an option to trigger the download.

Any operation that tries to persist new folder settings seems to result in this:

RuntimeError: wrapped C/C++ object of type QSettings has been deleted
2019-12-30T19:27:44Z <Greenlet at 0x2923b380d08: _process_message({'call': 8.128005035388185, 'name': 'pick_bot_fold, <geventwebsocket.websocket.WebSocket object at 0x0)> failed with RuntimeError

The folder settings fail to persist, and also the appropriate bots tend not to load into the GUI. Workaround is to go to the folder settings window after you get this error and click the "Apply" button without changing anything. That should at least load the bots, but you still can't persist the change for next time you open the GUI unfortunately.

QSettings is part of PyQt5, and this functionality may have broken due to an auto-upgrade of that dependency.

Right now StoryMode doesn't know to how to identify a hivemind bot and to do the appropriate set up for them

RLBotGUI.exe is designed to run RocketLeague via Steam. Is there a way to make it run the actual RocketLeague.exe so that people having cracked version can make use of this software too ?

I have tried to make a shortcut of RocketLeague.exe with Target:

"D:\Games\Rocket League\Binaries\Win64\RocketLeague.exe" {'RLBot_ControllerURL=127.0.0.1:[0-9]+','-rlbot'}

"D:\Games\Rocket League\Binaries\Win64\RocketLeague.exe" RLBot_ControllerURL=127.0.0.1:[0-9]+ -rlbot

But every time I try to start a match, it gives error:

Is there a way to make it run RocketLeague.exe directly ?

First of all, great job! GUI looks slick and I was able to setup a match with Python bots from the RLBotPack quickly.

Here's a list of things that could be improved, in the order of importance (to me):

The RLBotPack disappears between launches. (note: I've used a custom install directory)
I need to redownload every time even though the RLBotPack folder is within the RLBotGUI folder.

Problems relating to Java. As a first time user, I expect that I can follow the installation instructions of RLBotGUI and run every bot in RLBotPack. I can not run AirBud. I get 'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. in the console window that's launched alongside the GUI when I launch.
I'm no java expert but there's different versions of Java and different bots might require different ones?
If we detect that java is missing, the GUI should give a pointer to where to install it. Maybe only do this once a user tries to use a Java bot by adding it into a team. Maybe the provider of the bot should set a special_instalation_instructions as part of the details which we show on first import?
Also, does Java need/have an equivalent of virtualenv?

Currently I need to close both the cmd window and the GUI window.
I want to only close one window, the other window should close with it.
This PR should help: tarehart#1

I can't pin RLBotGUI to the windows taskbar. I think using a shortcut like this would work:
Target: %windir%\system32\cmd.exe /C start /B "" "%CD%\install-and-run.bat"
Start In: C:\Users\RLBot\Documents\RLBotGUI <-- RLBotGUI install folder
This also gives the command prompt window a different task bar icon to the default shell which is nice when I want to also have a shell open to develop my bot.

Note: I can't seem to create issues on tareharts fork. Not sure why not

Left-clicking on a bot puts it on the blue team. Right-clicking on it should put it on the orange team. (note: you can still do you electron inspect devtools on it by using ctrl-shift-c)

The introduction video does not cover that it'll take 1-2 minutes to download dependencies.
Note: you can ship the dependencies you want as wheel files and then install them in your virtualenv
https://medium.com/@amimahloof/how-to-package-a-python-project-with-all-of-its-dependencies-for-offline-install-7eb240b27418

The introduction video does not sufficiently explain what the console window is for. Something short like this would suffice I think "You can see what it is doing behind the scenes here. If a bot has problems, it'll show up here."
Optional, or as a separate video: Teach the viewer basic bug triage: where/how to report errors. How to copy in cmd is not obvious.

Btw, big thanks for using virtualenv, keeps things clean! :D

Users see a gevent related issue if they do not have a C++ redistributable installed. We need to pin gevent to less than v22 so that users do not have to deal with this issue.

See #216, #218, and RLBot/gui-installer#2.

I don't know how to fix this but someone please help as It is really annoying that it opens up in my browser instead of a exe

in gui.py line 493, the line

subprocess.Popen(f'explorer "{directory}"')

gave me this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 854, in __init__

    raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg, err_filename)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'explorer ~/.RLBotGUI/MyBots/tombot/src/"'

I changed it to this line on my machine:

subprocess.Popen(['nautilus', directory], stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

and that worked.

Show a preview of the bot's current logo and an edit button next to it. When the edit button is clicked, just open a file chooser and copy the selected png to the bot's folder and name it logo.png. There should be a some text saying 400x300 is the recommended size.

Personally not a fan of having to start the epic game launcher to play Rocket League. This is an enhancement request to support Legendary along side the Steam and Epic launchers.

These are originally from my notes in #85

• Highlight stays after removing a bot if another one moves to fill the space
  

• Similar highlight bug when you decline to install the missing packages on a bot or script
  

• Strange colouring on the orange radio button when selected
  

• Highlighting field when clicking on label in the appearance editor (this is apparently intended?)
  

Our current solution relies on fetching a json file from the AlphaConsole github: https://github.com/RLBot/RLBotGUI/blob/master/rlbot_gui/gui/appearance-editor.vue#L162

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/AlphaConsole/AlphaConsoleElectron/public/items.json

Unfortunately this file is not getting updated anymore since AlphaConsole is deprecated.

We need an alternative. Bakkes has helpfully pointed out that the BakkesMod console command dumpitems will create a csv file with all the items. Suggested solution:

• Make a script to convert the csv file into a json file with the same format that AlphaConsole used
• Do the dump, run the script, and add the json file inside RLBotGUI
• Somebody would need to redo the dump every season

People are confused when bot pack doesn't load in an instant.

On startup a user can choose a Story configuration like "easy" or "default". This should map to a specific challenge.json file.

We just need to load the correct challenge file based on the configuration setting.

i tried to setup the program and it keeps showing me this error, i deleted everything and uninstalled the python and rlbot but it keeps showing this error

Some of us has a lot bots. And while the window/page can scroll, I think it would make more sense of the bot section scrolled instead. Here's concept art pic:

Rocket league doesn't launch even if all the instances are closed.
It starts and then epicgames launcher pops up and says rocket league is already running.

Every time I try to download Rlbot GUI it gives me an error. Windows cannot access the specified path, device or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions. That is what the error says. Can someone please help?

A scrollbar should be added to the Folder Settings popup. The X buttons can also go off screen if the paths are very long. When the window is rescaled up the buttons appear, but when there are many paths, this won't suffice.

Another problem I noticed with the Folder Settings is, that I can toggle some paths and close it - and it will remember that those, but not apply them. I think it would be better if a popup said "Apply changes?" when closed with unapplied changes, and then it should apply or undo based on the users choice.

I am using epic games to play rocket league. I changed my drive's letter a few months back and RLBotGui is trying to launch RL by the old drive letter, epic games uses the correct drive letter but RLBotGui won't detect the correct installation. I can't find any option to manually set the install directory and didn't find any help in the RLBot discord or this github.

An option to set the directory would be helpful to resolve this issue. If it already exists could someone let me know how to access it?

Please help this is what it says

bot_creation.py os.rename() seems to be the culprit and we should use shutil.move() instead. See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21116510

While you're at it, I'd suggest moving to pathlib.Path rather than string-formatting paths.

How fast is PyPy?

Plot 1: The above plot represents PyPy trunk (with JIT) benchmark times normalized to CPython. Smaller is better.

It depends greatly on the type of task being performed. The geometric average of all benchmarks is 0.13 or 7.6 times faster than CPython

How has PyPy performance evolved over time?

Plot 2: Speedup compared to CPython, using the inverse of the geometric average of normalized times, out of 25 benchmarks (see paper on why the geometric mean is better for normalized results).

(source: speed.pypy.org)

Although these sources are for Python 2.7, these improvements continue even today, as shown in this repository: tonybaloney/performance_testing (smaller is better)

As shown, all the tasks RLBot needs have a better score than CPython, as File I/O seems to be the only issue we get, which should barely happen during an RLBot match (only reading configs on launch could be about a second slower with 50+ bots)

The only con is that so far pypy only supports up to 3.6, so bots using the annotations future import or using code compiled solely for cpython (which can easily be recompiled) will not work.
