This is the start of the scripting API. It will be expanded over time. If you want something ask for it in the forum. Create your scripts here: [1]. Scripts are written in AngelScript, it has syntax similar to C.
Functions you can implement:
void setupGame(); // Sets up the game state such as # of players, Map Size, if they need to set a deck or not, etc void beforeStart(); // Do things here before any action. Place creatures and buildings, change their decks etc. void afterAction(); // not yet void playersTurn(IPlayer player); // not yet bool canPass(IPlayer player); // not yet // called when the real players try to pass. // This is so you can ensure they do a particular action before passing.
Functions you can call:
IEntity createEntity(string CardName, int x_coord , int y_coord,IPlayer controller ); IEntity createEntity(string CardName ,ILocation loc,IPlayer controller); IEntity createEntity(string CardName ,ILocation loc); ILocation createLocation(int x,int y); IPlayer getAIPlayer(int index) void addAIPlayer(string PlayerName,string Avatar,int teamID); // can only call this from configGame() // all parameters are ignored for now
Example Scripts:
// Fortified AI
void configGame()
{
addAIPlayer("Evil Fish","Crypt Doctor",0);
}
void beforeStart()
{
IPlayer aiPlayer=getAIPlayer(0);
createEntity("Earthworks",6,6,aiPlayer);
createEntity("Earthworks",10,10,aiPlayer);
createEntity("Axe Captain",6,7,aiPlayer);
createEntity("Attrition",-1,-1,aiPlayer);
}
Coordinate System : Coordinates here is a bit unusual since TFW have hexagonal field. This page explains it a bit.
