3. Turn Flow - RMHSProgrammingClub/Bot-Server GitHub Wiki

At the start of each turn you are sent START_TURN by the server and after that the server sends the client information about the bot in JSON.
The table below describes what you are given (Note: This is subject to change. Please see connection.rb for further information).

JSON	Description
x	The x position of the current bot
y	The y position of the current bot
angle	The angle of the the current bot
health	The health of the the current bot
ap	The number of Action Points of the the current bot
mana	How much Mana the client has left
vision	What the robot can see (See Vision Explained)

An example of what the client is sent is (the real JSON will have no new lines and no spacing):

{
  "x": 10,
  "y": 8,
  "angle": 180,
  "health": 100,
  "ap": 10,
  "mana": 105,
  "vision": [
    {
      "type": "BOT",
      "team": 1,
      "x": 10,
      "y": 8,
      "angle": 180,
      "health": 100
    }
  ]
}

After you are given the bot information the client must send back its actions. Each action must be separated by a newline.
The table below gives each action's code. Italicized codes are arguments sent by the client

Action	Code
Move	MOVE x y
Turn	TURN degrees
Shoot	SHOOT
Place block	PLACE x y
Spawn Bot	SPAWN

After your actions are sent you must send END to the server to indicate that you are done with your turn. The server then executes your action and lets the other client take a turn. After that client takes a turn your client is given another turn with a new bot.
