Maxfield Bundle

Symfony Bundle implementing Ingress Maxfield — generates optimal portal linking and fielding plans for the Ingress mobile game.

Installation

composer require elkuku/maxfield-bundle

Portal File Format

Create a plain text file with one portal per line:

# Lines starting with # are comments and are ignored

PortalName; IntelURL; [keys]; [SBUL]

Field	Required	Description
`PortalName`	Yes	Any name (no `;` or `#` characters)
`IntelURL`	Yes	Intel map URL containing `pll=lat,lon`
`keys`	No	Number of keys already in inventory (integer)
`SBUL`	No	Mark portal as having a Softbank Ultra Link (raises outgoing link limit from 8 to 24)

Example:

# My operation portals
Town Hall; https://intel.ingress.com/intel?pll=38.032646,-78.477578; 3
Library; https://intel.ingress.com/intel?pll=38.032570,-78.477450
Post Office; https://intel.ingress.com/intel?pll=38.033100,-78.476900; 0; SBUL

Portals with duplicate coordinates are silently skipped.
A minimum of 3 portals is required to create any fields.

Usage

Console command

bin/console maxfield:plan <portal-file> [options]

Option	Default	Description
`--num-agents` / `-n`	`1`	Number of agents participating in the operation
`--num-iterations`	`1000`	Candidate field plans to generate; higher = better plan, slower
`--max-route-solutions`	`1000`	Max agent routing solutions to evaluate (multi-agent only)
`--max-route-runtime`	`60`	Max seconds for agent routing (multi-agent only)
`--outdir` / `-o`	`.`	Directory to write output files into (created if absent)
`--output-csv`	off	Also write machine-readable CSV files
`--res-colors` / `-r`	off	Use Resistance color scheme (informational only)

Examples:

# Single agent, defaults
bin/console maxfield:plan portals.txt

# Three agents, save to a specific directory, include CSV
bin/console maxfield:plan portals.txt --num-agents=3 --outdir=./output --output-csv

# Verbose output with more iterations for better quality
bin/console maxfield:plan portals.txt --num-iterations=5000 -v

PHP API

Inject MaxfieldPlanner and call run():

use Elkuku\MaxfieldBundle\Service\MaxfieldPlanner;

class MyController
{
    public function __construct(private readonly MaxfieldPlanner $planner) {}

    public function generate(): void
    {
        $plan = $this->planner->run(
            filename: '/path/to/portals.txt',
            numAgents: 2,
            numFieldIterations: 1000,
            maxRouteSolutions: 1000,
            maxRouteRuntime: 60,
            outdir: '/tmp/my-operation',
            outputCsv: true,
            verbose: false,
        );

        // $plan->graph->ap        — total AP
        // $plan->graph->numLinks  — number of links
        // $plan->graph->numFields — number of fields
        // $plan->assignments      — array of Assignment objects
    }
}

run() returns the completed Plan object and also writes all output files to $outdir.

Output Files

All files are written to the directory specified by --outdir.

File	Description
`key_preparation.txt`	Keys needed, in inventory, and still to farm — per portal
`key_preparation.csv`	Same data in CSV format (`--output-csv` only)
`ownership_preparation.txt`	Which portals need full resonators before linking begins
`agent_key_preparation.txt`	Keys each individual agent needs to carry
`agent_key_preparation.csv`	Same data in CSV format (`--output-csv` only)
`agent_assignments.txt`	Full link order for all agents combined
`agent_assignments.csv`	Same data in CSV format (`--output-csv` only)
`agent_N_assignment.txt`	Individual assignment sheet for agent N

Reading the assignment files

Links must be made in the listed order. Each entry shows:

Link ; Agent ;   # ; Link Origin name
                 # ; Link Destination name

Link — global sequence number
Agent — which agent makes this link (1-based)
# — portal number on the portal map
