# SSC.Nob
[](https://github.com/esotericpig/ssc.nob)
[](CHANGELOG.md)
[](LICENSE.txt)
*SSC.Nob* is a simple bot I wrote for the game [Subspace Continuum](https://store.steampowered.com/app/352700/Subspace_Continuum), just for fun!
*SSC* stands for Subspace Continuum. *Nob* stands for Noble One Bot. Noble One (or Nob) is meant to be a gender-neutral version of King of the Hill.
Subspace Continuum links:
- [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/352700/Subspace_Continuum)
- [Linux (Lutris)](https://lutris.net/games/subspace-continuum)
- [macOS](http://subspace-continuum.com)
- [UDP Game Protocol [wiki]](http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php/UDP_Game_Protocol)
It's **not** a server bot and can be run & used by any user in any zone & arena.
It's currently **not** a [UDP packet](https://www.twcore.org/SubspaceProtocol) bot. It simply reads a log file for input and uses Java's Robot class for output. For SSC.Nob2 or something, I'd like to read/write packets, but will probably never make it.
## Run
### From Jar
Download the latest Jar from the *Assets* on the [Releases page](https://github.com/esotericpig/ssc.nob/releases).
Then simply run the Jar:
```
$ java -jar ssc.nob.jar
```
### From Source
JRuby is required. [ruby-install](https://github.com/postmodern/ruby-install) & [chruby](https://github.com/postmodern/chruby) make this easy:
```
$ ruby-install jruby
$ chruby jruby
```
Run the app with JRuby:
```
[jruby]$ gem install bundler
[jruby]$ bundler install
[jruby]$ ruby ./lib/ssc.nob.rb
```
**Note:** that's *bundler* with an *r*, not *bundle* (which doesn't work with JRuby).
## Setup & Demo
It's pretty janky at the moment, but works.
You'll be asked a couple of questions. Then input the `run` command.
Current Subspace configuration:
- In *Key Defs*, set the *Msg* key to *TAB*.
- Once logged in...
- do `?log nob.log`
- do `?kill` until kill messages are set to display in the chat
- do `?namelen=24`
Now to run *Nob*, private message yourself `!nob.start`. Private message yourself `!nob.stop` to stop it.

## Hack
Use this Rake task for creating a Jar for release:
```
[jruby]$ bundler exec rake jar
```
There's a task for running as well:
```
[jruby]$ bundler exec rake runjar
```
Don't forget to include it in the release:
```
$ gh release create v0.0.0 pkg/*.jar pkg/*.gem
```
