RCJ Soccer Sim Webots Playground

This repository serves as a playground for various experiments related to setting up a simulated RCJ Soccer environment in the Webots simulator.

It currently features a sample robot as well as a supervisor. These are in an aplha stage and will very probably change in the future.

How do I try this out?

1. Download Webots

2. Clone this repository to your computer by running git clone https://github.com/RoboCupJuniorTC/webots-soccer-sim-playground.git

3. Make sure the program will be executed by Python version 3. Set python3 via Tools > Preferences > Python command

4. Open the downloaded soccer.wbt world which you can find in the worlds directory (via File > Open World)

5. Run the simulation. Note that just one robot (B1) will move usint the Python controler which is located at controllers/rcj_soccer_player/rcj_soccer_player.py. Every other robot will stand still

Notes

A specific webots world can be executed directly from the command line as follows:

    webots --mode=run worlds/soccer.wbt

Which allows for at least some automation. Further info can be found in the docs.

Both the sample player as well as the supervisor are implemented in Python, which should allow for easily updating the code to match the rules and avoid any compilation issues.
