Brain Tank, but updated to run in Python 3.11

Brain Tank

Summary

This is a little project to teach programming skills as well as basic AI. To run it just execute main.py with python.

Simulation Rules

1. Every time a tank becomes "idle" it will run the think() function associated with that brain to queue up more commands.
2. The tank then executes these, which can take a variable amount of time.
3. Tanks can also fire shots in the direction they are facing.
4. They must turn to aim.
5. Turning one facing takes half a second, turning twice takes one second.
6. The shots move at twice the speed of a tank.

Tile Rules

• Crossing dirt will take twice as long as regular tiles.
• The tank will abort a move if it runs into a blocking tile or other tank.
• Shots can destroy blocking tiles such as trees or rocks.
• Driving into water will destroy the tank.

Making a Brain

Copy brains/wander.py to brains/yourname.py. Make sure you have a think() function. This is the hook that will be executed by the program.

Requirements

• Pyglet
  • pip: pip install pyglet

Running

$ python main.py brains/amanda.py brains/phil.py

Licensing

The code is GPLv3, but the art/sound is not.
