Play Offline notes clarification

It's not obvious to me how this works, but here's what I figured out:

• There's a feature called "Local Dev Scripts" for apparently testing out bot scripts
• The full path is steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/game/dota/scripts/vscripts/bots
• It automatically loads scripts in the specifically-named bots folder
• Bot scripts in that bots folder do not show as an option from the Main Menu -> Play Vs Bots option
• Loading immediately into a bot match with +dota_start_ai_game 1 with bots scripts will automatically use them (bot names have RMMAI)

I do bot matches on Dota 2 and wanted to run it on Linux without Steam in a clean manner. I can install/update it with SteamCMD, and created some install notes!

I have this for doing a git clone for these scripts:

rm -Rf ~/'Steam/steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/game/dota/scripts/vscripts/bots' && git clone --branch 'master' --depth '1' --recurse-submodules 'https://github.com/adamqqqplay/dota2ai.git' ~/'Steam/steamapps/common/dota 2 beta/game/dota/scripts/vscripts/bots' && sync

And this for using SteamCMD and Workshop (it needs manually moved to be the expected bots folder):

cd ~/'Steam/steamcmd' && ~/'Steam/steamcmd/steamcmd.sh' +login 'Espionage724' +workshop_download_item '570' '855965029' +quit && sync && cd ~
