Quick start (2 minutes)

  1. Open the viewer → wait until status shows connected / running.
  2. Configure → Add agent → set username + goal.
  3. Optional: Pin on map, set Y, then Spawn agent.
  4. Use Pause / Step while you watch the map and chat log.
  5. To fill blank map tiles: Boundaries → Draw square → Preload map.

Map tiles need visits

The map only shows chunks a bot has loaded. Empty parchment squares are normal until an agent (or Preload map) visits that area.
