Its repository belongs to the helios-base organization, tying it to the HELIOS sample team ecosystem. A 2013 RoboCup symposium paper on HELIOS Base describes the base as a common library, sample team, visual debugger, and formation editor meant to reduce the infrastructure burden for multiagent soccer simulation teams. That paper frames librcsc's role: provide networking, synchronization, world modeling, and simulator-facing support so researchers can focus on team behavior. ### Adoption history librcsc's adoption is narrower than general-purpose libraries, but within RoboCup Soccer Simulation it is important infrastructure. The GitHub tag history shows RoboCup-year snapshots from 2013, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2022, 2023, and 2024, suggesting it is maintained around competition cycles. ### How it is used Users build librcsc before building HELIOS base or related tools. The package includes development helpers and utilities such as librcsc-config, log converters, result printers, version converters, and scheduler/table utilities for RoboCup soccer-simulation workflows. ### Why package nerds care librcsc is a niche package, but it is interesting because it packages a competition research stack as a reusable C++ library. For package managers, it turns RoboCup 2D simulation from a bundle of local academic build scripts into an installable dependency. ### Timeline - 1997: RoboCup held its first official games and conference, including simulation roots described by the RoboCup history page. - 2013: HELIOS Base paper presented the common-library/sample-team/tooling package for RoboCup Soccer 2D Simulation. - 2013: librcsc repository tags include RoboCup 2013 round snapshots. - 2019: librcsc tags include RoboCup 2019 and RoboCup 2019 final snapshots. - 2023: librcsc release support-v18 added support for rcssserver-18. - 2024: librcsc tag rc2024 recorded a RoboCup-cycle snapshot. ### Related projects - librcsc is related to helios-base, soccerwindow2, rcssserver, the RoboCup Soccer Simulation 2D league, and the broader RoboCup competition ecosystem. ### Sources - - - - - - - - - ## Security Notes library-like package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - library-like package without higher-risk signals ## Source Database Details - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** librcsc - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 6 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Related links - [Source-control packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/source-control-tools/) - Belongs to a source-control command family. - [Terminal utility packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Scientific computing packages](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/scientific-computing-tools/) - Matched scientific computing metadata. - [autoconf](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/autoconf/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [automake](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/automake/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [libtool](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/libtool/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [dopewars](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/dopewars/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [pioneer](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/pioneer/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [robotfindskitten](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/robotfindskitten/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [simutrans](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/simutrans/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [trader](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/trader/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [corsixth](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/corsixth/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games, simulation. - [advancescan](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/advancescan/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games. - [allureofthestars](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/allureofthestars/) - Shares av.db curated category or tags: cli, games. - [archi-steam-farm](https://www.automicvault.com/pkg/brew/archi-steam-farm/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
