Error in spelunkybots.gmk #13

Hello Gerrit-K, yes it was intentional for those values to be commented out as they are simply there to give an example of the types of values you would give depending on whether you were testing using test maps or the marathon. |
Wow, I didn't expect a reply to come so quickly. Thanks! I agree that it's good to have these examples, but as someone who is new to GameMaker, it wasn't obvious to me where to find the corresponding code, because this part is not covered in the guide and GameMaker doesn't provide script paths in stack traces. I would naturally expect the code to work out of the box without having to configure a script deep down in the directory first, so I think uncommenting some of the lines or providing an additional default setting wouldn't hurt, would it? To underline my point: in contrast to |
Hello Gerrit-K, the documentation does indeed need updating however I am unaware of who is dealing with documentation at the moment as I am no longer involved with this project. I would argue however that because the system is designed to test specfic things about the bot created in Spelunkbots the user needs to specify before launching the game what they are testing for, or else the system doesn't know whether you are running stored maps or the procedurally generated normal game. I agree it would be nice if this was stated in the documentation. I have emailed someone about the documentation and am waiting to see if anything is being done about it. Thank you for taking an interest in the Spelunkbots project and hope you like it :). |
Ah, I see your point. Thanks for taking the time! And yes, I do like it so far ;) I'm planning to try out MCTS and other general search techniques to see how they perform in such a complex game without involving too much domain knowledge. |
After pulling the latest master (at db7d939), compiling the dll's and starting the game via spelunkybots.gmk, I get the following error:
It turns out that in the script "Scripts/AI Toolset/GLOBAL/LevelParameters" all assignments to
levels
are commented out:I wondered whether this is intended, because everyone who follows the Getting-Started-Tutorial (like me) will probably face the same problem.
