mackorone / mms Goto Github PK

I think it would be really cool if there was a documented way to run the simulator via CLI only, this could be especially handy in automated CI/CD tests or just to quickly gauge performance!

I would love to work on implementing this if we can think of a way to go about it, i know mms is pretty tied into the graphics engine but, perhaps piping the graphics to a virtual x session or something similar might work?

I'm trying to build the micromouse simulator in Ubuntu 22 from downloaded source but the build command in QtCreator complains about openglwidgets. The build instructions are sufficiently vague to force me to ask for help. Reinstalling Qt with a different version was reported as being successful but that is garbage. Why does your simulator NOT even build in Linux???

I would suggest using the https://github.com/micromouseonline/mazefiles format. For the following reasons:

• They are easy to understand by humans.
• They are easy to read/write with any programming language.
• They are easy to visualize (just use your browser or favorite text editor).
• No need for special tools if you want to edit them or create your own.

Also, using that format would allow you to access the huge amount of competition and non-competition maze files available in the repository. 😊

Admittedly, I am using the AUR Package so totally fair if i'm just simply beyond support. I wasn't having any luck building from source using qtcreator, and it looks like the aur package "got further". Mostly posting here just incase anybody else has the same error and tries to google it!

I made a simple Rust API for MMS. If you want to mention it in your docs, that would be really nice.

Hi! Mack!
I tried to use 32x32 maze but display an error message which is "invalid maze file".
Is there any other way to use ?
If I can use 32x32 maze, I will appreciate so much .
Thanks mack!
Kind regards

When I try to upload the mms sketch to arduino it shows the following error
cannot convert 'const char*' to 'double' for argument '1' to 'double log(double)'
Can you tell me why
Thankyou

This project has been so fun to play with.

It would be amazing to push the boundaries of turning and arching from square to square or opening up Bézier curves for more advanced path optimizations.

With micro moves we may need access to the animation clock.

I cannot seem to get the python debugger to play nice with your API. When the program reaches the trace command, it locks up presumably waiting somewhere for input. Can the interface be made bi-directional and not just write to the log window?

Hey Mackorone,
I stumbled across this simulator recently when looking for viable simulators for my university's micromouse program. I've downloaded the latest release and got that working wonderfully, however I realized that the newest release doesn't include the addition of the second, easier to read and design map format. Would it be possible for you to create a new release with the the features that currently exist in the source code? I know it's a bit to ask but it would be great to have a link to send my students rather than figure out how to build it myself.

Thank you :)

Version 2, Makefile gives errors.

Hello,
this little project is awesome. I have a few questions and I will be very happy if you could answer them.

• How hard would it be to add a second mouse in the maze? It seems like MazeGraphic.cpp is the right place to create a second mouse but I would like to know which cpp file adds the mouse to the maze.
• Is it possible to select a different start location for the maze? it always start at (0,0). Could you please tell us which cpp file sets the start location?
• In the mms window, nothing is displayed in the tabs "Build Ouput" and "Run Output". How do I display text in the "Run Output" tab?
• In which cpp file do you read the input maze?

Sorry for those questions. The project has many files and maybe you can point to the right files for us.

Thank you,

Adon

I can't browse the mouse to the mms

Can you make a short video to guild me?

I know that the arduino version must work as long it is an ATmega. But somehow it doesnot work on the ESP32 even though it works on my Arduino Mega. The ESP32works correctly, but all the simulator shows is RUNNING. What am I doing wrong?

Hi! Mack!
There is an issue regarding moveForward() function as follow
bool moveForward() {
return getAck("moveForward");
}
There is no argument for a distance.
I will appreciate so much if you fix .
Thanks Mack!
Kind regards
David

Steps to reproduce

• Clone this repository https://github.com/mackorone/mms-cpp
• Filled same details as in image
• Build Worked
• Error when running

Process failed to start: Unknown error 0x000000c1.

Device Info

Processor	11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz   2.42 GHz
Installed RAM	16.0 GB (15.8 GB usable)
System type	64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Note
No issue when running program manually

in the simulator 45 degrees turns are not working also half steps are also not working but i saw in some youtube simulations they managed to work it out can you please tell me how to fix it

Thank you for great simulator.

I am using mms-arduino and mms.exe from windows.zip in released version.
Directory: C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Maze-Solver-Robot\mms-arduino
Run command: C:\Users\User1\Desktop\Python311\python.exe Main.py --port COM8 --baud 19200

First Run is successful using Arduino Uno board and mouse reached to Goal location.
Now I need to move mouse to start location again in mms.exe to start Second time Run. How can I put mouse again to location (0,0) to check Second run.

Updated to newest MacOS and opened mms and couldn't get it to run, haven’t changed a thing and I get this error:
execvp: No such file or directory

how can i build and run in the mms, because it says process failed to start: the system cannot find the file specified. can u send me the run and build code, i looked many of yours answers but your code is not working on my pc. i have windows 11 if that would help. thanks #38

I have tried building it from source as well as from aur, still no luck
=> Main issue seems to be "Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: openglwidgets"
=> I am unable to fing the install candidate for openglwidgets

im using python template and not able to stop the mouse after reaching the finish tile,i.e. its stilling running around the maze , i tried altering the source code but still not working.

Hello,
when clicking on the folder icon to load a maze file we have the message " GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged." This looks like a warning but it will freeze the application. Is there anything we can add in the code to prevent the simulator to freeze upon opening a maze file?

Also, one alternative is to edit the history of mazes already opened (see attached picture)

and select one from there instead of clicking the folder icon. Where is this file stored on the machine?

Thanks

in the latest available release ( v1.1 )
the commands WallFront, WallRight, moveForwardHalf do not return an ack and the simulator doesn't respond

if API.wallBack():
I faced a issue. The execution stops when I checked for wallback condition in python.

I use intellij, where can i find the build and run commands?

Hi! Mack!
How are you!
I upgraded some functions such as tuning 45 , running diagonal line, curve turning and so on for nearly a year. Any maze size is ok either. I'd like to contribute absolutely. Let me know!!
Thanks Mack!
