A Personal Challenge: Wiremod Tic Tac Toe.

[Pariah]

I am starting work on coding and building a tic-tac-toe game in wiremod that plays against you (I decided against trying to code chess and/or checkers right off...).

My challenge is for people to do the same.

A higher-level (but not by much) challenge is to code a pair of separate machines that play against each other. (hint: wire color-er).

tick tac toe is an unwinable game if played perfectly.
the only way to win is to try to deceive your opponent into seeming like your playing badly, even then, if he knows what hes doing you can't win.

I suggest you making it like this (game I invented long time ago):
You have field 7x7, and AI against you (only AI, not player vs player). The point is that you should put O, and AI puts X in such manner so if 3 of those are in same row/diagonal/column you cross them out, mark those cells as "unusable", and add 1 point to yourself.
You win if you have more points, lose if less or equal.

I created some kind of AI for it, I can share it with you if you like (it plays pretty nice, I think)

This sounds like another job for See-Pea-You!

Once the program is written for Tic-Tac-Toe, you'll need to make a system to read the board to see what was played and then output a result. (rangers, colorer). If you can simplify the read/write system, getting the CPU to output the results should be easier.

I'm sure the CPU can handle all the aspects of reading the board and processing the results and then outputting them, it seems it might be better to have a CPU dedicated to managing I/O and one CPU to run the program to output the results of calculations


Just a thought.

yeah one colorer with cpu for drawing
one colorer with cpu for checking

Having 3D chess would kick ass @_@

omg that would be complex in the extreame and we would need the wired grabber



*Hmm idea inbound* if tad hasent started the wired grabber i might pick up the project.

yeah a wired magnet we call it too

We need that too ...

wired grabber is diferent to a magnet it creates a removeable weld between itself and the thing its aimed at so it literally picks things up then can drop them

Yeah the wired magnet was supposed to do that too, because the magnet system in source currently sucks... and instead we were talking about is using a removeable weld
