# Simple Scala Set Up for Robocode

This is a Scala project in which you can write and compile Robocode robots.

To then be able to run them in Robocode itself, there are two things to do:

1. Add the Scala library as a dependency to the robotcode shell script; and

2. Add your _target/classes_ path to the "Developer Options" in Robocode itself.

Details below.

Once you've done that you can `sbt` and `compile` away.  You can restart a battle in Robocode and it appears to pick up changes.

This repository contains a _sample.ScalaMyFirstRobot_ which is the same as _MyFirstRobot_ but syntactically ported to Scala.

## Scala library

In my installation of _robocode_, I coped  _robocode.sh_ and added in the path to Scala std lib:

    robocode$ cat scalarobocode.sh

    #!/bin/sh

    cd "${0%/*}"

    java -Xmx512M -cp libs/robocode.jar:$SCALA_LIB robocode.Robocode $*

    cd "${pwd}"

## Robocode Developer Options

After launching Robocode, select _Options_ > _Preferences_, and in _Developer Options_, hit _Add_ and pick the path to your compiled robots:
