We include some sample scripts play_one_game.sh and play_one_game_live.sh to get you started,
but we expect you will eventually want to play around with the main playgame.py script a bit more
yourself.
cd sample_bots/java
gradle jar
cd ../..
# Demo of how to use the driver script - viz runs in browser at the end
./play_one_game.sh
# Similar, but viz runs continuously in an Java app
./play_one_game_live.sh
You must upload a zip called ants-*.zip (* can be anything), which contains at the top level either a runnable Python file called MyBot.py or a runnable JAR called MyBot.jar.
To do this, you can use the scripts as follows:
cd sample_bots/python
./build
# upload ants-python.zip
cd ../..
cd sample_bots/java
gradle zip
# upload build/distributions/ants-java.zip
cd ../..
