Run Sig-Game AI Battles for Multiple Languages.
Developed by Seth Kitchen and Tanner May
August-November 2018 and January-April 2019
@Missouri S&T
Currently builds and runs on Windows and Linux, but Windows functionality is only 25-40% done. Could be updated in future semesters. Instructions for Linux on Google Cloud are below!!!!
There are two forms of TheArena - Host and Client. The form runs automatically based on the given IPs (more specificially described in instructions).
The Host runs no battles, but receives AI zip files from the webserver through FTP, generates brackets for tournaments, keeps track of all available and clients, and sends battles to run to the clients to advance the bracket.
The client starts and continously waits for the host to send it files. When the host sends files, it will eventually send a RUN_GAME signal and the client will run all the AIs sent to it. After it compiles the results, it sends it to the web team for record keeping and to the host to update the bracket.
NEW
CALLS THE GAMESERVER API WOW
Make sure if you are running on Google Cloud that you enable IP Forwarding, and enable all UDP/TCP connections inbound and outbound in firewall rules.
-
First install git and Clone the repo:
sudo apt-get install git
git clone https://github.com/siggame/TheArena.git
-
Open Main.cs and Change the IPAddresses to match the host and the your own computer. If you are the host, the HOST_ADDR should be an internal IP (ie my internal IP listed on Google Cloud - 10 dot 128 dot 0 dot 2). If you are a client the HOST_ADDR should be the external IP address of the HOST - NOT YOUR COMPUTER - (ie the external IP listed on Google Cloud for the server is 35 dot 239 dot 194 dot 206 ).
-
Also in Main.cs change the ARENA_FILES_PATH to something local on your machine (ie mine is /home/sjkyv5/ArenaFiles). The path up to the last directory must exist before starting the program (ie /home/sjkyv5 must exist before starting, but ArenaFiles would be created or used whether or not it exists.
4 -- prob not neccessary) If the ports given are already being used or are blocked you can change them, but they must also be changed on the host.
- Install dotnet. Pick correct linux distro and Follow Directions here: https://www.microsoft.com/net/download/linux-package-manager/sles/sdk-current
6 -- only for client) Install Compilers - LuaJit, LuaRocks, LuaSocket, Node, NodeGyp, Python3, g++, cmake, and java8 -- You can check out the commands in Cpp.cs, Java.cs, Lua.cs, etc where originally we installed automatically, but the Ubuntu commands were not the same as the Debian commands and we deprecated automatic install.
recently worked install commands (use pip3.8 install ....):
sudo bash
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_13.x | bash -
apt-get install -y luajit luarocks nodejs g++ cmake default-jre default-jdk libncursesw5-dev libssl-dev libsqlite3-dev tk-dev libgdbm-dev libc6-dev libbz2-dev build-essential zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev liblzma-dev libncurses5-dev libreadline6-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev libgdbm-dev liblzma-dev tk8.5-dev lzma lzma-dev libgdbm-dev uuid-dev python3-dev python3-setuptools libffi-dev libunwind-dev maven
luarocks install luasocket
npm install -g node-gyp
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.0/Python-3.8.0.tgz
tar -xzvf Python-3.8.0.tgz
cd Python-3.8.0
mkdir build
cd build
../configure --enable-optimizations --with-ensurepip=install
make -j8
make altinstall
update-alternatives --install /usr/bin/python python /usr/local/bin/python3.8 50
alias pip=pip3.8
alias pip3=pip3.8
alias python3=python
-
cd to the root directory (ie /home/sjkyv5/TheArena/TheArena/TheArena) and run command
sudo dotnet build --configuration Release -
On successful build cd into the compilation folder (ie /home/sjkyv5/TheArena/TheArena/TheArena/bin/Release/netcoreapp2.0) and run using
sudo dotnet TheArena.dll
Sudo access must be given to do networking otherwise errors will occur. In the event of ANY error, check the Log file
nano Log.txt
To keep persistant do:
screen -S arena
then run the game in the screen and when it's running do CTRL+A+D and it will return to the original linux and you can close the application.
When you come back and want to view again do:
screen -r arena
