Research direction

Locate the RLBotServerUtils helper functions that define the server binary name and install location, then inspect pom.xml and the existing generate-flatbuffers.sh and generate-flatbuffers.bat build steps. Update the platform-specific behavior so the Linux build uses the shell script, and verify that the Linux binary naming, installation location, and build complete successfully.
