<div>== Getting Started ==<br />
After [[Robocode_Download_And_Install|installation]] first, let's run a battle to see what the game looks like. Simply click the '''Battle''' menu, then select '''New''', as shown on the picture here:<br />

<br />
<br />
You'll be presented with the '''New Battle''' screen, where you pick the robots and options for a battle. For this battle, we'll try out MyFirstRobot, RamFire, and Tracker. Add them in by double-clicking on their names (or selecting each one and clicking '''Add''') The screen should now look something like this:<br />
<br />
[[Image:NewBattleDialog.png|Shows the New Battle dialog where the user can select which robots to add to a new battle]]<br />
<br />
See the '''Number of Rounds''' box in the middle?<br />
<br />
In Robocode, each battle consists of a number of rounds, as you'll see soon. For now, we'll leave it at the default of 10.<br />
<br />
Finally, click on the '''Start Battle''' button to begin! Watch for Tracker's little dance as he wins rounds.<br />
