spacetraders

A janky interface for spacetraders.io, written in R/shiny

Installation

I don't know, I haven't tested it. You can try installing it like a package, but that probably won't work.

The dependencies are listed in DESCRIPTION. Make sure those are installed. Then you can either call the functions from the console or run the shiny app in spacedash/

Examples

Here is roughly how to do the tutorial, but using this interface:

Create a new agent

new_agent(base_url, "AGENT_NAME")

Note: After creating a new agent you will need to load your token.txt using token <- readLines(here::here("token.txt")). Afterward the token should be automatically read.

See agent details

agent_info(token, base_url)

Accept a contract

TBD. Can be done using raw send_request() functionality

View contract information

contracts(token, base_url)

Buy a ship

TBD. Can be done using raw send_request() functionality

Navigation

navigate(token, base_url, "BIONIC-1", "X1-ZA40-99095A")

Dock, Refuel, Orbit

dock(token, base_url, "BIONIC-1")
refuel(token, base_url, "BIONIC-1")
orbit(token, base_url, "BIONIC-1")

Extract minerals

extract(token, base_url, "BIONIC-1")

Run all ships in a simple mining & delivery loop

run_swarm(token, base_url)

Known bugs

• Ships currently get "stuck" sometimes when delivering cargo. They can be "bumped" using the shiny app
