<p>The GamebotsClient.java &quot;connect&quot; method declares that<br />
it throws an IOException, I presume this is when the<br />
client cannot connect to the gamebots server, which is<br />
good.</p>
<p>The problem i have is that all the connection code has<br />
been wrapped within a try/catch block. This means that<br />
when a connection cannot be made, the client simply<br />
logs the error in line 249.</p>
<p>My class therefore which extends Bot, does not get<br />
notified if the connection fails. i.e. the log shows<br />
it, but my software continues on as though the<br />
connection has been established and crashes further on.</p>
<p>I fixed this problem by removing the try/catch block,<br />
(commented out lines 229, 248, 249 &amp; 250). If the<br />
connection fails now, my class recieves the IOException<br />
and quits gracefully.</p></div>
