====== Installation ======

First you need an extra account for each Bot you want to set up. \\
See [[howtos:how do you prepare a bot account - sl account settings|How do you prepare a Bot account - SL account settings]].

__You have to do that steps one time:__

===== Requirements =====

Install the [[http://silver.pikkubot.de/en/dotNetFx35setup.exe|Microsoft Framework 3.5]] \\
Install the [[:installation:download|PikkuBot]] client (GUI) \\

===== Installation package ===== 

The ** PikkuBot_Installer_VERSION.exe ** installation package contains all necessary files. \\
You only have to double click it to run. The path will queried. \\

** After the installation the PikkuBot will automatically create a link in the Start menu to the PikkuBot directory! **

====== Start ======

===== 1. Create a shortcut with PikkuHelper =====

  * Start the PikkuHelper.exe... thats the tool to create links (shortcuts). \\
  * Create one link for each Bot. \\
  * Fill out the required information and check "use Pikkustarter". \\
  * After that click on "create link". When created all links for all Bots then exit Pikkuhelper.\\
  * Pikkuhelper adds for each Bot two files in the Bot directory on your harddisk: one *.lnk and one *.exe\\
  * -> Just use the link to start your Bots (doubleclick on the link)\\

===== 2. Run the Bot with a shortcut ====

  * Create a shortcut by using Pikkuhelper or create it on your own using following parameters:
<code>
PikkuBot.exe Bot-Firstname Bot-Lastname Bot-password Master-Firstame Master-Lastname
</code>

===== 3. Run the Bot from command line ====
