Please enter the IP address and port number obtained from the `kubectl get gameservers` command. + +![enter ip and port](../../../images/supertuxkart-enter-ip-port.png) + +**Join the Game**: After entering the server details, proceed to join the server. You should now be connected to your Agones-managed SuperTuxKart game server and ready to play. + +![start race](../../../images/supertuxkart-race-start.png) + +**Launch the Game with AI Bots**: To start the server with AI players, use the ` --connect-now= --network-ai=` command, substituting `` with your server's IP address and port number and `` with the desired number of bots.

To delete the Agones fleet you deployed, execute the following command.
