First we need to install the tools for multi-agent programming, and then we can install the automated planner that our agents use.
Download Eclipse if you don't have it yet. Any version should be fine, although newer versions are advised.
To enable syntax highlight for JaCaMo, install the Eclipse plugin using this tutorial up to, and including, Step 10.
After restarting Eclipse, select the following menu option:
File > Import > Git > Projects from Git > Clone URI
Copy https://github.com/autonomy-and-verification-uol/mapc2019-liv.git and paste it on the URI field.
Proceed until the "select a wizard to use for importing projects" screen, then pick Import existing Eclipse projects and click next and then finish.
We used the Fast Downward (http://www.fast-downward.org/) planner. It should be possible to use another planner, as long as it supports the same subset of PDDL that FD does, but remember to modify the file planner/run2.sh accordingly with the command to run the new planner.
After installing FD (http://www.fast-downward.org/ObtainingAndRunningFastDownward), make sure the planner is working by itself by running it with a simple domain and problem file.
Finally, in the Eclipse project, navigate to planner/run2.sh and change the beginning of line 5 /home/angelo/git/planner/./fast-downward.py to the path where your fast-downward.py is installed.
We used JUnit to run both the server and our JaCaMo code at the same time.
To run the sample map, right-click test/liv/agentcontest2019/ScenarioRunSample.java file, "Run as", "jUnit Test".
The server's output is shown on the Eclipse console. The JaCaMo output is loaded into a separate window. Press enter at the Eclipse console to start the simulation.
To run the sample map with two teams (team B only uses our exploration code), right-click test/liv/agentcontest2019/ScenarioRunSampleTwoTeamsTeamB.java file, "Run as", "jUnit Test". This will start only the code for team B.
Then, right-click test/liv/agentcontest2019/ScenarioRunSampleTwoTeams.java file, "Run as", "jUnit Test". This will start the server and team B. Press enter at the Eclipse console to start the simulation.
The files ScenarioRunContest1.java and ScenarioRunContest2.java run only our code (without the server) and were used to connect to the contest servers server1 and server2 respectively.
