Bedwars AI Simulation

A C# simulation environment for testing AI strategies in a Bedwars-style game, inspired by the popular Minecraft minigame. This project implements a custom game engine with different AI agent strategies competing against each other.

Overview

This simulation models a Bedwars game where players start on their home islands, gather resources, build bridges to other islands, upgrade their equipment, and attempt to destroy other players' beds. Once a player's bed is destroyed, they cannot respawn when eliminated. The last player standing wins.

Game Elements

Islands

• Bed Islands: Home bases for players with resource generators (iron and gold)
• Diamond Islands: Generate diamond resources
• Emerald Islands: Generate emerald resources

Resources

• Iron: Basic resource, generated fastest
• Gold: Intermediate resource, generated at a moderate rate
• Diamond: Advanced resource, generated slowly
• Emerald: Premium resource, generated most slowly

Items

• Weapons: Stone, Iron, and Diamond swords
• Tools: Wooden, Iron, and Diamond pickaxes
• Defensive Blocks: Wool, Endstone, Obsidian
• Consumables: Golden Apple (heals the player)

Mechanics

• Bridges: Players must build bridges to travel between islands
• Combat: Players can engage in combat to eliminate opponents
• Bed Breaking: Destroying an opponent's bed prevents them from respawning
• Resource Collection: Players automatically collect resources from islands they occupy

AI Strategies

The simulation includes four different AI strategies:

1. Optimal Player (Red): Uses sophisticated minimax decision making with alpha-beta pruning to make intelligent decisions
2. Aggressive Player (Blue): Focuses on combat and bed destruction, often at the expense of resource gathering
3. Resource Player (Green): Prioritizes resource collection and upgrades before engaging in combat
4. Defensive Player (Yellow): Builds strong defenses and plays conservatively

Project Structure

• Core Game Logic:

• AIsland.cs: Base class for all islands

• BedIsland.cs, DiamondIsland.cs, EmeraldIsland.cs: Specific island types

• Connection.cs: Represents bridges between islands

• GameEngine.cs: Manages game simulation

• GameState.cs: Stores the current state of the game

• Generator.cs: Handles resource generation

• Player.cs: Base player class

• Inventory.cs: Player inventory management

• AI Logic:

• BedwarsAIAgent.cs: Main AI decision-making engine using minimax

• Strategy-specific player classes in Program.cs

• Items and Commands:

• Various item classes (sword, pickaxe, etc.)

• Command classes for actions (move, combat, buy, etc.)

How to Run

1. Compile the project using a C# compiler (.NET Core compatible)
2. Run the executable to start the simulation
3. The program will run multiple simulations and output statistics about which AI strategy performs best

dotnet build
