IMT3601-project or "Frank Darkhawks Amazing Maze RPG!" is a student/school project. A lot of the code is messy. This is because it is a first in many areas for the 4 main authors/contributors.
A word of warning though: there are inconsistencies and stupid designs/decisions throughout the project.
The game is built using SFML 2.0-rc http://www.sfml-dev.org/ and either visual studio or GNU Autotools.
In IMT3601-project/ directory run: 'autoreconf -i && ./configure && make'. This should configure and build the neuton executable. You can install it by running '[sudo] make install', in most cases this requires root privileges.
TODO: write up this section. I (thomas) has little to nothing to do with the windows build of the project, I will try to push one of the other devs into writing up this section.
The 'src/Includes.hpp' file will need to be adjusted for Mac's positioning and naming of libraries, But once that is fixed it should work fine with gcc and make. See Linux setup above.
The controls are hardcoded as of now, but there is an issue(#31) up for making them configurable. They are as follows:
| Key | Response |
|---|---|
| w,a,s,d | Move up, left, down, right |
| e | Activate menu item(1) |
| escape | Open main menu |
| +,- | adjust difficulty up and down |
(1): In earlier versions (and likely future ones) this key could be used to put down mines.
Keys can be modified in code, for in-game controls: src/classes/Player.cpp:LocalPlayer::characterInput(Character* thisCharacter) and menu controls: src/classes/Menu.cpp:Menu::runMenu()
The menu controls are spread around the Menu.cpp file a bit. So if the behaviour you are trying to change is not in that method, you will have to search the rest of the file for it.
