2D autonomous car navigation with optimal driving lines through NeuroEvolution
NeuroEvolution design influenced by ivanseidel's project IAMDinosaur
The track/environment is built using the phaser game engine. The project is setup with a node server that allows for genomes to be loaded and saved. The important files and directories are explained here:
- index.html: All js assets are loaded here.
- public/js/environment.js: This file contains all of the game code interfaces with the NEDriver. This is currently a mess and could use a lot of refactoring.
- public/js/NEDriver.js: This contains all of the code for the genetic neural net.
- public/genomes/: This directory contains all saved generations of genomes
- This contains a file public/genomes/generation500.json. This generation will complete the track with a near-optimal driving line
- public/assets/: All game assets are contained in this directory
Node must be install on your system first
# install dependencies
npm install
# run server
node index.js
Then just open up a browser to localhost:3000.
