Setup for an AI-based tank game based on RTanque
- Ruby 2.1 or greater
- Bundler
- Gosu dependencies
$ git clone [email protected]:bathruby/battlebots.git
$ cd battlebots
$ bundle install
If you don't have the dependencies installed or you are running on Windows, you can use Vagrant to create a Virtual Machine with all dependencies set up automatically. Install Vagrant and Virtualbox, then run vagrant up from the root of this repository and you should see the VM start up & dependencies be downloaded and installed.
$ git clone [email protected]:bathruby/battlebots.git
$ cd battlebots
$ vagrant up
Once you see the GUI login menu appear (after a VM restart), log in with the "Vagrant" user, password "vagrant", open a terminal, cd /vagrant and start playing as below:
Generate a new bot with:
$ bundle exec rtanque new_bot my_deadly_bot
Run a test match with:
$ bundle exec rtanque start bots/my_deadly_bot sample_bots/keyboard sample_bots/camper:x2
Then fork the project on GitHub and add your bot to the bot folder and send it back as a pull request.
