FoCoBot project is a game community IRC bot for server admins and users.

FoCoBot is an IRC bot that give administrators access to rcon on Half-Life servers, making it possible to manage them remotely from IRC.

It also supports Shoutcast radios (giving the current song and listeners), hlstats, server chat listen, banned.cfg sync, and much more.

It is also a status/information bot for game channels.

There is also some status support for Battlefield Vietnam servers.
