Description

The BotManager can fail to call bots' retire method since the bot loop keeps waiting for a game tick data that never arrives.

I don't know if this happens in practice, but it looks possible from the code.

The BotManager should probably wait for all threads to join before returning from retire.

Research direction

Locate BotManager and trace the retire path, the bot loop, and its wait for game tick data. Verify the behavior when no tick arrives, and consider completion to mean that every bot's retire method has been called and all related threads have joined before retire returns.
