| - | + | - Connect to the server using ''telnet''. When connected, authenticate yourself with the token given to you by the assistant and set our alias. Choose your alias wisely as it cannot be changed later in the game easily. It will be shown on the ranking website once you start playing games in easy mode. | |

This timeout is long when playing in Debug mode. |
| - | + | - Write a bot which automatically plays games of shootout. Your client should connect to the server through a socket. Eclipse is installed on the lab computers (in ''/var/local/eclipse/eclipse''). It can help you develop your bot in Java which includes support for socket communication. However, you are free to implement your bot in any language you would like. Be aware that we do not know all programming languages and hence cannot give you the same level of assistance in different languages. While you are working on your bot you should stay in Debug mode (i.e., you should not change modes). In this mode you should get games against a bot which answers quickly. Once you switch to Easy and Pro mode, your bot will play others. Hence it gets harder to debug since not every bot may answer in a timely manner! | |

| - | + | - To finish the Fachpraktikum, your bot should be able to play in Pro mode. This means that you should be able to handle games that occur in parallel! | |
