AIRacingGame

Targets

• -points based on damage to car
• wall physics

To Server

• In Rust
• Json message with code + username
• Request leaderboard

To Client

• Message with current pos, orientation and speed + timestamp

Scripting Language

• Python as basis
• User makes a function which given the environment says what the car should be doing
• Environment = {the whole map, velocity of car}
• Output = {acceleration value (fractional - how much the pedal is down), intended angle, turning speed}
• values important to the car
• possible target volicity
• Drift? bad thing
• Gears?

Time Plan

• River

• Finish the work on Exec Environment

• Treat car as a rectangle as opposed to a point

• Work out how the acceleration curves for the car should work (turb vs not)

• Come up with a more complex damage system for the car

• Research into gears and Drifting

• Beth

• Get initial implementation of leader board done

• add in network mesh to leaderboard

• Add in scene transitions

• Add in way of visualising lap finish/crash

• Work out how the FE wants to receive the racetrack

• Max

• Finish coding + Merge the python scripting language branch with the main branch

• Add functionality on server side to send out the racetrack

• Do a terrible initial example of a racecar AI to demonstrate it working

• Luca

• Finish off the server facing bit of the front end

• Help beth with the server facing part of the client

• General Front end

• Improve visuals : make the car not a sphere + add skins for car?

• Market research

• General Back End

• Do docs for scripting language
