# WCCC_BoardGames # **AstroBattleShips** For this week's Creative Code Challenge by @sableraph: ***" Classic Boardgames, AstroBattleShips*** takes ***Python, Locomotion & SonicPi Code with Digital Media*** to reimagine the game, **Battleship** as an intergalactic game. ## **Imagination Stage** This is done by using a modified version of Battleship that uses mines and having the layout of the board code in **Python**. The dark blue represents the mines while the lighter blue represents the ships. In **SonicPi**, the sounds that are drum-like represent a mine being located while the beeps are for the ships. The overall ambience sound is the open water on the board. By using 360 alongside some filters, a sci-fi representation can be seen of how board games can be played in a futuristic realm. WIth **Locomotion** to add actual ships. ## Poetry ```ocaml Where are they located? How have they been Created? Will this lead to a feeling frustration As there is no instruction, And needs a bit of intuition? ``` ## Video ## Images of the Boards ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1716735275962/b54b0231-7e19-4e28-8051-49e1fecd9241.png align="center") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1716735280926/c85e1771-33e4-4b47-b4be-d161ee93f889.png align="center") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1716735293160/343c1eac-0a78-4160-a45a-d1278d27ba33.png align="center") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1716735296819/0627b341-4ec7-4279-b6d7-4b315c44b624.png align="center") ![](https://cdn.hashnode.com/res/hashnode/image/upload/v1716735300485/5b49a914-cc1e-4543-bf61-45dbcdbccfb8.png align="center") ## Code ### Python ```python #battleship is a 10 x 10 board game, for the purpose of this, we will be arranging various new classes of ships import numpy as np import seaborn as sns #using the data viz component as a board import matplotlib.pylab as plt def battle(): #using the 0 & 1 to represent a ship versus the ocean and having a weighted value of 0.8 for ocean, 0.18 for boats and 0.02 for mines boats = [0,1,2] prob = [0.78, 0.18,0.04] #by adding the (10,10) instead of 5, able to make an array with the weighted values shipyard2 = np.random.choice(boats, (10,10), p=prob) return shipyard2 def plotting(x): letters = ['A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','J'] #set for the columns uniform_data = x ax = sns.heatmap(uniform_data, linewidth=0.5,cmap="Blues") #changing it to blue for ocean representation ax.set_xticklabels(letters) #setting the ticks of the x axis to letters plt.show() return x #to produce array that will be used in sonicpi plotting(battle()) ``` ### SonicPi ```ruby #5 different battle ship boards with the mine versions use_random_seed Time.now.to_i shipyard1 = [[0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 1], [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]] shipyard2 = [[2, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0]] shipyard3 = [[0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2, 0, 1, 0, 0], [2, 2, 2, 0, 1, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2, 0]] shipyard4 = [[1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0], [0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2], [2, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]] shipyard5 = [[2, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 2], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0], [1, 0, 0, 2, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 2, 1], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 2], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0], [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]] def sonification(shipyard,looping,sampling) live_loop looping do #iterating the 2d arrays for i in (0...shipyard.size) #overall size of range for j in (0...shipyard[i].length) #overall length of the arrays if shipyard[i][j] == 2 #play every value with_fx :ixi_techno do with_fx :echo, mix: rrand(0.4,0.8) do sample [:loop_safari,:tabla_ghe4].choose, amp: 6, beat_stretch: dice(4) end end elsif shipyard[i][j] == 1 with_fx :ping_pong, mix: rrand(0.4,0.8) do sample [:elec_blip,:elec_blip2,:elec_bong].choose, amp: 4, decay: 4 end else with_fx [:ping_pong,:flanger,:whammy].choose, amp: 1, mix: rrand(0.4,0.8) do sample sampling end end sleep [0.75,1,1.5].choose #pause in between each spawn, replicating the different thinking processes end end end end sonification(shipyard5,:yard5,:ambi_glass_hum) sonification(shipyard4,:yard4,:ambi_glass_rub) sonification(shipyard3,:yard3,:ambi_piano) sonification(shipyard2,:yard2,:ambi_glass_hum) sonification(shipyard1,:yard1,:ambi_piano) ``` ### Locomotion ```haskell c = hsv (step [0,1/3,2/3] (phase 1 0)) 1 (range 0.5 1 (osc 0.25));
