Trouble running c++ starter bot

Entelect Challenge 2019

After compiling the c++ starter bot and updating game-runner-config.json I get the following message:

Reading config file: ./game-runner-config.json

I checked and the bot binary exists. Any ideas on what is wrong?

Hi @Leon.

It seems to be a problem with the path concatenation to the executable file. We will look into this issue but for now, as a workaround, you can simply change the "botLocation": "./bin/" to "botLocation": "/bin/" in the C++ bot.json file :slight_smile:
