We&#8217;ll hopefully get another chance later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In other news, our team has managed to run our simulation on HiPerGator! Using a few basic resources, a single game of <em>Catan<\/em> takes about 5 seconds to run. That&#8217;s about 5,000 games in 8 hours! We&#8217;re hoping that by further increasing our resource usage and allowing games to run in parallel, we can increase this amount even more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our next plan is to analyze and modify the current simulation of <em>Catan<\/em> to better fit the design requirements for our project. We also plan to research different algorithms and reward strategies for our AI model.
