design_attack

Overview ¶

cmd/design_attack is the one-stop tool for authoring + verifying the per-unit `formula.json` consumed by the deploy pipeline. It walks the user through every unit in the strategy YAML — for each unit the user clicks 1 (point) or 2 (line) screen coordinates that the bot will then tap on its own.

ONE SIDE COVERS ALL FOUR. The user authors the formula for ONE corner (e.g. BottomRight). Combined with `target_edge: "Rotate"` in the strategy YAML and `formula.MirrorForCorner` in the orchestrator, the bot reflects the same authored attack onto all 4 corners (BR / BL / TR / TL) automatically. Use `-verify` to see the 2x2 mirror grid before running the bot.

Goal: replace the legacy corner-based pCfg.Edges / red-zone-detection / Duke-adjacent-override chain (which kept attacking in the corner and stacking heroes on the same pixel) with deterministic, user-pinned per-unit coordinates authored once and mirrored to all 4 sides.

Usage (author — click 1 or 2 points per unit, save):

go run ./cmd/design_attack \
    -live -strategy assets/strategies/auto_edrag_rush.yaml \
    -out assets/strategies/auto_edrag_rush_formula.json

Usage (verify — 2x2 grid of the formula mirrored to all 4 corners):

go run ./cmd/design_attack -live -verify auto_edrag_rush_formula.json

Usage (auto-pick from heuristics, no clicks):

go run ./cmd/design_attack -auto -live -strategy ... -out ...

Flags:

-screen <png>  : pre-saved battle PNG. Mutually exclusive with -live.
-live          : capture live from adb (adb exec-out screencap -p).
-device <s>    : adb device serial for -live. Empty = the only
                 connected device.
-strategy <y>  : strategy YAML (drives the unit list).
-out <f.json>  : output formula path. Required for author/auto modes.
-verify <f>    : load existing formula, show 2x2 4-corner mirror grid,
                 exit on keypress. Implies -screen or -live.
-auto          : skip clicks, derive coords from per-class heuristics.
-include-event : append _event_troop + _event_spell planned rows.
-target-edge   : override auto-pick target edge (right/left/top/bottom).
