PY2D Soccer Simulation Base Code is a base code for RoboCup 2D Soccer Simulation teams, which is written in Python.
This base code is powered by the [Cross Language Soccer Framework](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2406.05621), which allows you to create a team by using any programming language that supports gRPC or Thrift.
This base code uses `Helios Base` as a proxy to communicate with the RoboCup 2D Soccer Simulation server.

You can find more information about the services and messages in the [IDL section](../../3-idl/protobuf.md).

there are many different ways to run the base code, in the next section, we will explain the easiest way to run the base code.

## Quick start

### Preparation

Install the pre-requisites using the command below:

``` Bash
sudo apt-get install fuse #Used to run AppImages
sudo apt-get install fuse #Used to run AppImages (Proxy, Monitor and RoboCup Server)
```

Clone this repository & install the required python libraries (such as gRPC). Don't forget to activate your virtual environment!

This section assumes you have installed the server & proxy using the scripts (as mentioned above).

To run a game, you must first run the RoboCup Soccer Server, then your team and opponent team, and finally the monitor.

We must first run a RoboCup Server, in order to host the game:

| Running the RoboCup Soccer Server

``` Bash
cd scripts/rcssserver
./rcssserver
```

Then we must run the proxy & the decisionmaking server:
| Running your team

We must run the proxy, and rpc server, you can run `start.py` or `start.sh` to run both the proxy and the server.

``` Bash
./start.sh
// or
python3 start.py
// or
./start.sh
```

### Options
This script, by default, will run a gRPC server on port 50051, and 12 proxy agents (11 players and 1 coach). In each cycle of the game, the soccer server sends the state of the game to the proxy, which processes the state, creates state message and sends it to the rpc server. The rpc server receives the state message, processes it, and sends the actions to the proxy. The proxy receives the actions, processes them, and sends the commands to the soccer server.

- `-t team_name`: Specify the team name.
- `--rpc-port PORT`: Specify the RPC port (default: 50051).
- `-d`: Enable debug mode.
| Running the opponent team

You can download an opponent team binary from the [RoboCup Soccer Simulation Repository](https://archive.robocup.info/Soccer/Simulation/2D/binaries/RoboCup/) for example `CYRUS` team from [here](https://archive.robocup.info/Soccer/Simulation/2D/binaries/RoboCup/2023/Day4/CYRUS_SS2D_RC2023_D4_BIN.tar.gz). After extracting the binary, you can run the team using the command below:

Launch the opponent team, start the monitor app image. press <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>C</kbd> to connect to the server, and <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>K</kbd> for kick-off!
``` Bash
cd CYRUS_SS2D_RC2023_D4_BIN/bin
./start.sh
```

##### Team and Name Customization

## How to change the code
| Argument | Short | Description | Default Value |
|---------------------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|
| `--team_name` | `-t` | The name of the team. | `CLS` |
| `--use-random-name` | | Use a randomly generated team name. | `False` |

The `server.py` file contains the logic in 3 main functions:
`GetPlayerActions` receives a game state, and returns a list of actions for a player for for that cycle.
The actions we can output are equivalent to the Helios Base (Proxy), which are abstracted into multiple levels.
You can use actions such as `DoDash`, `DoTurn`, `DoKick` which directly apply force, or use actions such as `GoToPoint`, `SmartKick`, `Shoot` or [more](https://clsframework.github.io/docs/idl/).

##### RPC Server Configuration

| Argument | Short | Description | Default Value |
|---------------------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|
| `--rpc-port` | | The port used by the RPC server. | `50051` |
| `--use-random-rpc-port` | | Use a randomly assigned port for the RPC server. | `False` |
| `--use-different-rpc-port`| | Use a different port for the RPC server (useful for multi-server setups). By using this option, the script will run a rpc server for each agents| `False` |
| `--auto-close-rpc-server` | | Automatically close the RPC server after finishing agent processing. | `False` |

---

Similarly, you can change `GetCoachActions` which is responsible for coach communication & substitutions.
##### RoboCup Soccer Server Configuration

You can also use `GetTrainerActions` to move the players & the ball to make repeatable scenarios (when the server is in trainer mode).
| Argument | Short | Description | Default Value |
|---------------------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|
| `--server-host` | | The host of the RoboCup Soccer server. | `localhost` |
| `--server-port` | | The port of the RoboCup Soccer server. | `6000` |

---

##### Agent Proxies

| Argument | Short | Description | Default Value |
|---------------------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|
| `--player` | | Run a proxy for a single player agent. | `False` |
| `--coach` | | Run a proxy for a single coach agent. | `False` |
| `--goalie` | | Run a proxy for a single goalie agent. | `False` |
| `--debug` | `-d` | Enable debug mode for the agents. | `False` |

---

##### Debug and Logging Options

| Argument | Short | Description | Default Value |
|---------------------------|-------|------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------|
| `--disable-log-file` | | Disable logging to a file. | `False` |
| `--log-dir` | | The directory where logs are stored. If not provided, logs are stored in the default directory with a timestamp. | `None` |

As seen in the figure, the proxy handles connecting to the server, receiving sensor information and creating a world-model, and finds the action to take via a remote procedure call to a decision-making server, which is this repository.

## Test Performance by using AutoTest

### RoboCup Server configuration
TODO

You can change the configuration of the RoboCup server and change parameters such as players' stamina, game length, field length, etc. by modifying `~/.rcssserver/server.conf`. Refer to the server's documents and repo for a more detailed guide.
## How to improve the performance of the team

### Modifying Proxy & Running proxy and server seperately
TODO

If you want to modify the algorithms of the base (such as ball interception, shooting, localization, etc.) you must modify the code of the [proxy repo](https://github.com/CLSFramework/soccer-simulation-proxy). After re-building from source, you can run the proxy by using `./start.sh --rpc-type grpc` in the bin folder of the proxy, and run the gRPC server with `python3 server.py` in this repo's directory. It is highly recommended to launch the python server before the proxy.
## Documentation

You can modify the rpc port by adding the argument `--rpc-port [VALUE]`, where the default is 50051.
