Getting Started

Just unzip MBot.zip into a folder and create a shortcut to MBot.exe. (Right click and drag MBot.exe onto your desktop or some other folder, and choose "Create Shortcut here" from the popup menu that appears when you release it.)

If you want to have different setups for Magsbot for different projects, you can copy the data files (.ini, .udf, .beh and .btn files) into a different folder for each project, then specify that folder as the "Start up" directory in the shortcut properties. (See Updating Magsbot for instructions on setting up a shortcut.)

Another way to manage multiple projects is to specify an alternate .ini file in the shortcut properties "Target" box, like this:

"c:\program files\mbot\mbot.exe" ".\mystartup.ini"

The .ini contains the paths to the .udf, .beh and .btn files. If you don't add a path, then MB will look for magsbot.ini in the current folder. If it doesn't find the .ini file, then default values will be used.

See the included magsbot.ini file for information on startup values that you can set.
