First of all, I am not a Java developer and I don't know much about Java ecosystem. Just want to write bot locally.

I try to make a runnable jar file via mvn but can't get it work, here is the story

1. Add main class

The readme mention com.codingame.game.Main.java but I can only found Main at test, so I pick com/codingame/game/sample/Main

$ grep -r Main src/
src/test/java/com/codingame/game/sample/Main.java:public class Main {
src/test/starterkit/starterAI.cs:        HasPlate = Content.Contains(MainClass.Dish);
src/test/starterkit/starterAI.cs:public class MainClass
src/test/starterkit/starterAI.cs:    static void Main()

and add following to pom.xml

$ git diff
diff --git a/pom.xml b/pom.xml

2. run mvn package to create jar

$ mvn package

$ find target/ -name *.jar
target/code-a-la-mode-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar

But when I try to run the jar file, I got an error

$ java -jar target/code-a-la-mode-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Error: Could not find or load main class com.codingame.game.sample.Main
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.codingame.game.sample.Main

Please help me solve the problem.

With current system, is it possible to use a bot in starterkit for testing?
How the communication (stdin/stdout) should be, if I want to write a bot that is not java?

It would be nice have some tool (CLI) like

runner <bot1> <bot2> <bot3> <bot4>

where the runner spawn botN as executable and manage stdin/stdout automatically.

Upon further investigation, I have found sdk documentation on game-runner but unfortunately I don't have enough Java skill to make it.

It would be good to precise in the statement that the players initial positions are not represented by '.'.

When a player has a dish with 4 items and use the oven's item, he will end up with a dish with 5 items.

Given a bot that is just waiting, all 3 matches should be identical.

At the end of the first round:

At the end of the last round:

Compare the prizes at the bottom, something doesn't add up here (I didn't check if it's a UI glitch or the game itself).
