How to contribute? How to test developments? Roadmap? #22

Closed simpsus closed 3 years ago

simpsus commented 5 years ago

Dear owner,

I am a programmer and I would like to contribute towards improving this AI. My question now is: How can I setup a development environment? I do not mean the IDE where I write code, but how do I test what I have just written? How can I debug and learn if the stuff that I did makes any sense?

Thank you very much.

Hi,

Sorry for the late reply. We are welcome everyone to contribute the project. The development environment is very simple, just need your Dota 2 Client. To test your code, you should copy the files into this folder "Steam\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game\dota\scripts\vscripts\bots", and then start the game chooes the local dev script. If you want to debug the code, you can open the console in game, and use "dota_bot_reload_script" to reload the code. For more information, you can view the following page, https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Dota_Bot_Scripting http://dev.dota2.com/forumdisplay.php?f=497 http://dota2.gamepedia.com/Cheats

Have a nice day!
