This is my AI for the MMO Screeps (https://screeps.com). Please feel free to use, fork and comment.
My ingame name is dmecke, drop me a line if you like.
Principles
Automate everything
The main goal is to achieve as few manual interactions as possible. At the very best none at all.
Heavily base on behavior trees
As I gain more and more knowledge about the mechanics of the game, I need to adjust the AI correspondingly. This quickly becomes a mess with masses of precedural code. So the idea is to encapsulate actions and checks into small reusable classes and to leverage them in behavior trees that can be easily adjusted according to new findings.
Goals
- role behavior is based on behavior trees
- spawn logic is based on a behavior tree
- set up a solid network for harvesting a room at maximum efficiency
- mining
- acquire new rooms and build them up
- market logic
Setup
install dependencies
npm install
copy config file
adjust your screeps credentials in the "screeps.json"
cp screeps.json.dist screeps.json
build project and upload files into "sim" branch
select the "sim" directory once when you are in the simulation
gulp deploy-sim
build project and upload files into "world" branch
select the "world" directory once when in the world
gulp deploy-world
Usage
Debugging
Every creep as a debug property in it's memory. Set this to true to output debugging informations to the console (like it's behavior tree).
Background
I am a PHP developer in my day to day job, so please be indulgent with my coding style. Suggestions and comments are very welcome!
Credits
The build script is based on stolen from the great https://github.com/screepers/screeps-typescript-starter repository.
The behavior tree implementation is heavily based on http://behavior3.com.
