This project implements a simple real-time strategy (RTS) game using Pygame. The game involves building structures, training units, gathering resources, and battling enemies.
- Building Construction: Place various buildings like castles, houses, barracks, and resource-generating structures. Each building has specific costs and functionalities. Buildings cannot be placed in water.
- Unit Training: Train units such as swordsmen and archers from respective buildings. Units have different stats and attack ranges.
- Resource Management: Gather gold, wood, stone, food, and people to fund construction and unit training. Resource production is influenced by the number and type of buildings.
- Enemy Waves: Face waves of enemies that attack your buildings and units. Enemy types include goblins and orcs, each with unique behaviors.
- Procedural Terrain: The game features procedurally generated terrain using Perlin noise, adding visual variety, including rivers and grasslands.
- Unit Movement and Combat: Select and move units across the map. Units automatically engage nearby enemies within their attack range. Unit pathfinding is now more efficient, with fewer recalculations when targets move.
- Game Messages: Receive feedback on actions, such as building completion, unit training, and combat results.
- Key Bindings: Use number keys to select building types and other commands.
- Clone the repository:
git clone <repository_url> - Install Pygame:
pip install pygame - Install noise:
pip install noise
- Run the game:
python src/rts.py - Select a building type: Press number keys 1-8 to choose a building.
- Place buildings: Left-click on the grid to place a building (cannot be placed in water).
- Train units: Click on a building that can train units (e.g., Barracks, Stable).
- Select a unit: Left-click on a friendly unit.
- Move units: Right-click on the map to move the selected unit.
- Toggle Debug Mode: Press 'D' to show or hide debug information.

src/rts.py: Main game file, handles game loop, event handling, updates, and drawing.src/entities.py: Defines game objects like buildings and units (allied and enemy).src/constants.py: Stores game constants like screen dimensions, grid size, colors, and building/unit data.src/utils.py: Contains utility functions for drawing the grid, displaying messages, checking collisions, and other helper functions.src/procedural.py: Handles the procedural terrain generation.src/astar.py: Implements the A* pathfinding algorithm.
- More Unit Types: Add more variety to the units, each with unique abilities and roles.
- Advanced AI: Improve enemy AI for more challenging gameplay.
