# Software Challenge 2024 Rust Client

[![Build](https://github.com/fwcd/socha-client-rust-2024/actions/workflows/build.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/fwcd/socha-client-rust-2024/actions/workflows/build.yml)

A template client for the [Software Challenge 2024](https://www.software-challenge.de) (Mississippi Queen) written in Rust.

The client implements the XML protocol for communication with the game server, the game structures and a very simple logic that picks moves without any further heuristics.

## Building

To build the client into a statically linked executable, run

```bash

cargo build --release

```

## Running

First make sure to have the game server for "Mississippi Queen" running (you can [download a copy from GitHub here](https://github.com/software-challenge/backend/releases/tag/24.0.8)).

To start an instance of the client, you can now run

```bash

cargo run --release

```

> Note that you will need another client (either a second instance of this one or another one) to play.
