Pah Tum Score Counting - Victor Putrich - 07-11-2023
Greetings
Currently, I am studying the game of Pah Tum and am interested in testing new game variations using the Ludii platform. However, I've observed that Pah Tum is not currently available within the Ludii game library.
As such, my goal is to implement this game in Ludii platform.
During my examination of the Ludii grammar, I was unable to find a rule corresponding to the unique scoring system of Pah Tum, which is a critical part of determining the game's winner.
In Pah Tum, scoring occurs after the board is completely filled. The scoring system is based on counting the number of aligned pieces, with specific points allotted for alignments of different lengths.
To illustrate, here is the specific scoring pattern in Pah Tum:
- Alignment of 1 stone = 0 points
- Alignment of 2 stones = 0 points
- Alignment of 3 stones = 3 points
- Alignment of 4 stones = 10 points
- Alignment of 5 stones = 25 points
- Alignment of 6 stones = 56 points
- Alignment of 7 stones = 119 points

RE: Pah Tum Score Counting - fuerchter - 07-15-2023
Hi, have you made any progress on this by now?
If not here are some thoughts: For the scoring pattern/table itself it would make sense to use the (map) ludeme, like so:
Code:
(map {(pair 1 0) (pair 2 0) (pair 3 3) (pair 4 10) (pair 5 25) (pair 6 56) (pair 7 119)})Then what I'd do is reset the Mover's score to 0 after their turn, and use something like this:
Code:
(addScore Mover (mapEntry [the length of the line you found]))Relevant ludemes: (addScore), (mapEntry)
This would make it so the score is displayed and updated during the game (instead of at the end), which I guess you could have different opinions on.
If you need any more help past this, feel free to ask.

The scoring system indeed poses a challenge, but perhaps Ludii's flexible grammar can accommodate custom scoring rules. palworld
