We have released the initial version of Lambda Duct – an offline mode simulator for Lambda Punter. Lambda Duct acts as a bridge between a client in offline mode and an online game server.

Please refer to the Lambda Duct repository on GitHub for instructions on how to install and use it.

TL;DR

Install Lambda Duct via OPAM

$ opam pin add lambda-duct https://github.com/icfpcontest2017/lambda-duct.git

Then supply the name of your client program (configured to run in offline mode) and the port of the game you want to connect to

$ lamduct --game-port <port> ./<name of client program>

Note the ./ in front of the client program name.

Happy punting!
