Excited warfare on the seas of a Kepler IV.
The time has come to conquer Kepler IV. Humanity is now able to travel further away from our solar system, and it has now reached exoplanets. Two companies sent surveying parties in the form of two AI carriers that aim to control the vast archipielago of Kepler IV. These AIs can be controlled remotely in real-time by space folding uplinks.

'Requirements'
- ODE: Open Dynamics Engine, version 0.14: https://bitbucket.org/odedevs/ode
- STK: The Synthesis Toolkit in C++ (Audio Library)
- OpenGL Version 2.1 (supported natively in Linux, Mac and Windows).
You can either download it from ODE repository or copy the file in dependencies/ode.tgz back to the same directory level as this project. Please this README or the guidelines in http://ode-wiki.org/wiki/index.php?title=Manual:_Install_and_Use to install ODE on your Macbook.
./bootstrap
./configure --disable-asserts
make
sudo make install- Run the following script to install automake tools for Mac
On newer OSX systems with brew installed, you can do
brew install premakeFor older versions, you can run the following script
#!/bin/sh
##
# Install autoconf, automake and libtool smoothly on Mac OS X.
# Newer versions of these libraries are available and may work better on OS X
#
# This script is originally from http://jsdelfino.blogspot.com.au/2012/08/autoconf-and-automake-on-mac-os-x.html
#
export build=~/devtools # or wherever you'd like to build
mkdir -p $build
##
# Autoconf
# http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/autoconf
cd $build
curl -OL http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/autoconf/autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
tar xzf autoconf-2.69.tar.gz
cd autoconf-2.69
./configure --prefix=/usr/local

sudo make install

tar xzf libtool-2.4.6.tar.gz
cd libtool-2.4.6
./configure --prefix=/usr/local
make
sudo make install
echo "Installation complete."- Now download the ode-0.14.tar tarball.
- Modify configure script and remove from the script "-sse .... mmx"
- Modify LIBTOOLIZE variables from 'glibtoolize' to 'libtoolize'
Once these steps are completed you can compile ODE:
./bootstrap
./configure --disable-asserts
make clean && make && sudo make installFirst you need to copy the stk file from dependencies into the parent directory where you cloned wakuseiboukan. Then you need to compile this sound library.
cp dependencies/stk.tgz ../../
cd ../../
tar xvzf stk.tgz
cd stk
make clean
./configure
make
sudo make installThe STK libraries are going to be copied into /usr/local/lib/. So you need to run the following command before executing the simulator or configure it intorc_bash or similar.
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/libbsd-dev freeglut3-dev libasound2 libasound2-dev
make
./waku [-d] [-random] [-client] [-server] [-greenmode|-bluemode] [-aiplayergreen|-aiplayerblue|-aiboth] [-action|-strategy] [-loadgame savegames/file.w]
-d: open is a window
-random: initialize the random number generator with a seed from timestamp.
-server: runs as a server, ready for receiving incoming connections.
-client: runs as a client, trying to connect to a server and receiving UDP Telemetry.
-greenmode|-bluemode: plays as green faction or blue faction.
-aiplayergreen|aiplayerblue|aiboth: choose which side gets the AI.
-action: action mode with a lot of islands already established.
-strategy: starts from an initial island and conquering all the rest.
-loadgame: load a savegame.
That's all folks.
How to play?
First the console can be activated with 't', like Minecraft.
Everything can be controlled. Each vehicle has a vehicle number. Keyboard 1-9 allows to control 9 vehicles directly from the keyboard. Otherwise you need to activate the console write 'control NN' and the number of the vehicle. The list of all the entities can be accessed with '#'. It is only possible to control vehicles from the same faction. The keyboard entries can be configured by writing in the console 'set KEYNUMBER#NN'.
There are five degrees of freedom that can be controlled from each vehicle
- a-d: ROLL a clockwise on Z
- w-s: PITCH w noise down.
- v-b: YAW b clockwise on Y
- z-c: PRECESION c clockwise on Z
- r-f: THRUST r inclease it
- h: Fire active weapon.
- j/J: Engage/Disengage autopilot.
Capital letters increase the values of the sensitivity.
The map can be activated by pressing "@". And the main view can be restored by pressing "!". The map can be zoomed in and out by pressing left and right mouse clicks. While clicking and pressing shift will set a waypoint for the autopilot. The waypoint mode can be modified from "destination" or "attack" by writing these commands in the console.
- o/O: Spawns a UGV either from any of the Carriers or from Ports or Armories. Capital O despawns them when they are nearby.
- m/M: Spawns a UAV either from any of the Carriers or from Roadways. Capital M despawns them when they are landed.
- c: Spawns a UGV drone only from the Beluga Carrier.
- 'launch': Console command to launch any aircraft landed on the runways or carriers.
- 'taxi': Moves the aircraft to launching position when necessary.
- 'land': Order any nearby aircraft to land.
- 'def Island#N': Control the structure N at island 'Island'. Numbers go from 0 to 10 (depending how old is the island).
- 'manta N': Control Manta number N
- 'walurs N': Control Walrus number N
- 'medusa N': Control Medusa Defense Airplane number N
- 'seal N': Control Seal Speeder Boat number N
There are several scenarios in the engine that are used for research and as test cases.
The scenario 111 is the tank battleground:
make testcase TC=111
./testcase -mute -randomThe purpose was to create a multiplatform simple game engine based on physics dynamic engine and a fluid simulation solver, and a testbed platform to simulate manipulators and mobile robots.
The game is a remake of an old and amazing game, which uses the engine as platform. The design guideline for the game was to create a networked game where it is possible to control indepentendly all of the entities that are available. You can be anyone anywhere.
- Floor
- The floor is a flat square that extends to the horizon, located based on camera position. Horizon works according the fulcrum representation.
- Sea works as a texture that is shifted based on the camera position.
- Reflections and alpha are missing.
- Waves and boat wakes are missing.
- Sky
- The Sky is a far-away-box with textures on the insides.
- It works well, but the representation relies on the camera view and there are issues with how they look like from certain viewports.
- Islands
- The engine is calculating the islands perfectly. What you see is what you feel.
- Islands are BMP heightmaps 60x60. These values are hardcoded to 3600x3600 in the model.
- Max height (255) is 60. Hardcoded.
- Island floor, which can be less than zero, or greater than zero, need to be adjusted manually for each island. Need improvement->Some Z Fighting.
- Collision detection
- Island heights works PERFECT for Walruses and Turtles. Watching the bullets ricochetting on the floor is awesome.
- Models
- MDModel: Unreal.
- 3DSModel: it works only when you have just one object and without textures.
- Walruses
- There are several models now. They work very nicely on water as boats following the buyoncy model. On land they work as Ackerman driving. When they enter or leave an island, the model changes. The thrust simulates and offboard engine.
- Sound
- STK
- Manta
- The FDM model from Flight Simulator works but it is very difficult to really control it. And there are many parameters.
- Current implementation is a new mixed model which handle the forces from the dynamic model but keep the airplane pose based on a simplified model (not dynamic). I will move from here which is very good for control (and automation).
- UserControl can be improved. Sensitivity must be adjusted from within the game.
- Shift+Ctrl+Alt+C -> origin to geometry
- N: dimensions: from here you can edit global positions and set the objecto to 0,0,0. draw3DSModel assumes all objects are at the center of coordinates.
- Ctrl+J: Join selected objects.
- Shift+D Copy (Alt+D), Ctrl+M >> X,Y,Z, + ENTER (Mirror)
