Comment on Uniciv (open-source android/desktop 4x game) 4.17 release!
Artisian@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoBy testing it out in the app?
I’ve also tried getting AI to program really simple things, like using js to find particular elements in a webpage (which I don’t control and involves far too many lines). It did fine.
It’s not ready for commercial use, but it makes hacking around unfamiliar code more accessible. But hey, I’m too lazy to test this use case, so let’s keep arguing about it instead =) (though, thinking about it, automating the argument would be something the AI could do just as well, eh?)

I’m going to make a mildly stronger claim. I think this game really is quite moddable by a non-coder. What you need is to implement a different ruleset with new win conditions; everything else can be done with copying existing files into the correct file structure. New win conditions are specified by a pretty boring JSON file, docs here:
github.com/…/5-Miscellaneous-JSON-files.md#victor…
See here for an MVP for a mod of this type (probably replaces/strips away too much, but you should be able to find the vanilla files in the github linked in the OP):
github.com/yairm210/…/master
Which is all to say, this is much easier than doing address lookup imo.
