From the website:
“trAInsported is a game about trains, Artificial Intelligence and lots and lots of passengers.
It’s the near future, and trains are controlled by AI. It’s your job to write the best AI on the market. Manage your trains in short rounds and make sure you transport more passengers than any other company.
As you go through the game, your AI will improve. Once through the tutorial and challenge maps (or anytime you think your AI is ready), you can upload the AI through this site and watch it compete in live online matches against other players’ AIs!
The server will stage live matches multiple times an hour. AIs will be chosen at random, the less matches the AI has already competed in, the more likely it will be to compete in the next match.”
The AI scripting is done in Lua, and there are a limited number of lines of code that can be executed for an AI to keep the frame rate up. The concept is infectious, and you can watch live matches on the trAInsported website.
Just a fun game I came across the other day: http://trainsportedgame.no-ip.org/
