To fix that issue, here's a new interface dll that you can unzip and copy over the old one in your HouseBot/Plugins/Interfaces directory. When you are assigning command...

Re: Clean Install

MQTT doesn't get installed with the 'typical' setup. If you don't see MQTT as an option in setup to select, it is because MQTT requires Windows Vista or newer (probably why you're not seeing it on XP).

Re: Upgrade 3.50
