 The Next Generation of Minecraft Bot

--------------------------------------

    :target: https://github.com/SpockBotMC/RikerBot/actions



A C++20/Python Minecraft bot under heavy development. If you don't like what

you see today, come back tomorrow! Features are arriving fast!



Things Riker can do today:

 * Full protocol support, including authentication, targeting the latest

   protocol supported by minecraft-data_ (currently 1.16.5)

 * Parse world updates and provide an accessible interface to block data



Why build Riker and not work on an existing project?:

 * Built from the ground up around code generation. This makes the maintenance

   burden of keeping up with Mojang much lower than some other projects.

 * Fun and Accessible Python API when you want it, High Performance C++ API

   when you need it.

 * If you want to build a modern Minecraft bot using only open source

   technology (not modding the Mojang client, Malmo-style), your only option

   today is Mineflayer_. Mineflayer and all of PrismarineJS are excellent

   projects, but maybe you're not a NodeJS programmer. RikerBot brings much

   needed diversity to the Minecraft bot ecosystem.



Feature Roadmap:

 * Physics :running:

 * Pathfinding



Framework Nice-To-Haves (things to work on when features are done):

 * Multi-threaded job system

 * More packets accessible in Python



Housekeeping (Good projects for new people!):

 * Spin mcd2cpp out into its own project

 * Default settings parser

 * CI builds and push to PyPI

 * Docs, Docs, Docs, Docs, Docs!



Usage

-----



Please refer to  `the documentation`_ for building and installing RikerBot.

The project is still extremely young and changes are happening daily, so the

documentation, where it exists, may lag actual usage.



The best way to get started once you have installed RikerBot is to refer to

`the ExamplePlugin`_.



Get Involved

------------



Please open issues or better yet, a pull request for things you would like to

see in Riker. You can find `me `_ in the

`Libera.chat`_ #mcdevs channel as ``nickelpro`` or reach out to me through

email or social media.



Special Thanks

--------------



Lots of people have contributed to the third-party Minecraft community, too

many to list here. These are some people who's work I interact with everytime

I work on Minecraft.



* `TkTech `_, **Grand Poobah of Third-Party

  Minecraft**, keeps the lights on for us lesser devs.



* `Pokechu22 `_, **Master Scribe and Artisan**,

  documents all things Minecraft great and small and maintains irreplacable

  infrastructure like Burger.



* `rom1504 `_, **Chairman of the Prismarine**, this

  project literally doesn't exist without the hard work of Rom and all the

  other Prismarine contributors.



And thanks to my friends `gjum `_, and

`gamingrobot `_. SpockBot walked so that

RikerBot could run and knowing that people liked my little block game robot

enough to so significantly improve it meant and means a lot.
