Development Kits
From DAIDE
Some AI authors have provided some or all of their code to help others get started. These development kits usually consist of libraries to implement functions that are common to all AIs.

Andrew Rose's AI Development Kit (v00.03.0462)
This kit is for all Windows AI writers. It comes as DLLs and header files for C/C++ although any language that can make use of DLLs can use this package. The kit contains the following items
- Client Server Protocol DLL - Handles all the low-level TCP/IP communications and has a number of codexes to present the received messages in various different eary to understand forms.
- Bots source package - 4 of Andrew's bots as examples.
- Connection Log Cracker - Plain text display of a connection log captured during a run.
- Test Server - Very useful for testing AIs in isolation. Also allows easy setup of alternative maps/positions so that particular AI functionality can be tested.

Fredrik Blom's .NET development kit
The SDK includes all that you need to start programming a bot from a .Net language including the binaries to describe a Diplomacy game, connect to a DAIDE server, and a base implementation for a Bot. The SDK has been updated to use .Net 2.0.
