7.2 Programming user strategies
7.2.1 Preface
There are two ways of adding user strategies to CoopSim: Either by
entering them on the User Defined Strategies page when the application
is running or by writing them directly to the Strategies.py module
of the program code. Since CoopSim is open source software and thus
comes with the complete source code you can easily do so. Except for
experimenting, the latter method of adding your own strategies directly
to the program code is probably the better one, because entering strategies
on the User Defined Strategies page is more error prone and can quickly
get frustrating. Also, changing the module Strategies.py can be done
with a real python editor with syntax highlighting, class browser and
other comforts. On the other hand, you should only change Strategies.py
if you really know what you are doing, or otherwise CoopSim might not
run any more.
