TTRTS
The Tiny Terminal RTS where the players write their AIs
Introduction
We aim to create a simple terminal based rts where a user can program an AI to control their army
Gameplay
- ttrts clients are run from the command line
- ttrts-server is launched from the command line
- clients will connect to server and confirm initial board state
- clients output a text file with game data for this turn
- a player, or program, reads the game data file and outputs an instructions file
- clients read the instructions file, simulates the turn
- game state is verified between clients and server
- repeat until an end state is reached
- once game is finished, host and clients disconnect and a winner is notified
