SYNOPSYS
ttrts MAPFILE
DESCRIPTION
ttrts is a tiny terminal based RTS where that uses text
files as order lists to control it's units.
This means that any user, program or cat that can read
and write to text files can play the game.
USAGE
When invoked, ttrts will set up a full game and output a
single file representing the current gamestate into a
local directory called `ttrts_{GAME_NAME}`.
This file can be read in and interpretted by human, robot
or cat. ttrts will wait for orders files to be placed in
it's current working directory.
Once orders have been set for each player taking part
ttrts will calculate the new game state and output a new
gamestate file for the next turn.
This process repeats until a winner is chosen!
