Unofficial Haskell starter package for the google ai contest.
The PlanetWars module contains a small library to build your bot on. The MyBot module contains a simple example bot, based on the example in the C++ starter package.
You should change the MyBot module to your liking. If you make any
improvements to the PlanetWars module, I would appreciate if you have me pull
your changes, so everyone can benefit from your improvements -- after all, we're
trying to get the Haskell bots as high as possible in the ranking, right?
You should be able to build your bot using:
ghc --make -O2 MyBot.hs
The server uses the -O2 flag as well. Now, you should have an executable
called MyBot.
Let's watch it fight against one of the java bots.
