[ANN] Google AI Challenge 2011 - Lua starter package

[Julien Duminil <julien.duminil@...>]

Hi list,

I have added a Lua starter package to the Google AI Challenge - Ants (2011)*.
It doesn't aim to be optimized, but allow you to start quickly to make your AI in Lua.
(I just converted the JavaScript starter package to Lua.)

It can be downloaded here:

Enjoy ;)

(was done in Lua, which was not fully supported by the server, so was submitted as C++)

*What is Google AI Challenge ?

http://aichallengebeta.hypertriangle.com/

"The Google AI Challenge is all about creating artificial intelligence, whether you are a beginning programmer or an expert. Using one of the easy-to-use starter kits, you will create a computer program (in any language) that controls a colony of ants which fight against other colonies for domination."

It is still in beta, but you already can play with ;)
