gang

a minecraft bot swarm that:

1. does tasks
2. when anyone's attacked, everyone attacks back
3. can clear entire areas
4. if there's nothing else to do, follow their owner

made possible by rust and azalea

under the hood

under the hood there's a server that coordinates tasks and clients that request tasks and report certain events in the world

they use simple tcp packets to communicate with one another

since after like 20 or so bots in a single process all the bots would lag uncontrollably, have horrible ping and randomly disconnect, so multiple client processes are used

the server coordinates username generation, the clients are pretty much slaves to the server

usage

minecraft version 1.21.5

uses rust nightly so use rustup to configure your toolchain appropriately

clone the repo

cargo run -p client_v2 --release master 3*5 your_mc_username

you can edit 3*5 to be anything you want, it's number of clients per process * number of processes

they'll join localhost:25565 and start following you

in chat, you can use the following commands:

gang demolish <x> <y> <z> <to x> <to y> <to z>
gang stop
