Yes you miss the fact, that the basepractice server is only called
so, but in fact it is a complete training server. You can send in
dogfight robots, defenders, ogger, robot bases and even whole
teams playing a complete INL game, which you may captain.

It's just a matter of sending the right messages to the bots.

I did already several time, in the earlier time when it wasn't that trivial
to compile a server under Linux. May do it again sure.
