Dependencies:

• Boost
• pugiXML (included)
• a C++11 compatible compiler

Building for C++:

First, create and change to a build directory, for example build/

mkdir build && cd build

Then, create the cmake project

cmake ..

Now you can build the project

make

The executable will be created in the bin directory.

Creating your own logic

Either edit the template logic in starter/custom_logic.cpp, or create your own file and include it in starter/starter.cpp. When compiling for C++, these files will be included and the logic defined in starter.cpp will be used.

To get started, you want to look into the sc_library/include/game/gameState.h file, in there are basic functions that will help you create your own logic, including documentation.

Usage

Run the client via SC_PENGUINS_STARTER If you want to specify an IP adress and a port number, you can do so via SC_PENGUINS_STARTER IP PORT.
