----CODING RULES:----

1) When starting a new curly brace, start on same line, and end curly should be at same level as the line which started it. EG:
	if(some_statement){
		code_goes_here();
	}
2) When using if-statements, even for single statements, always use curly braces. No letting any confusing sameline ifs.
	DO THIS:
		if(some_statement){
			single_line();
		}
	NOT THIS:
		if(some_statement) do_this();
	NOR THIS:
		if(some_statement)
			do_this();
3) camelCase or under_score is acceptable, but be consistent in a sourcefile.

4) Source files are also known as Modules, and Directories are Systems. Subdirectories are thus subsystems.

5) Feel free to use Global Variables, but ONLY if they are static and in a single file/module. The only exception to this rule will be main.c and the entire game directory/system, since they are all a tightlybound subsystem anyway.

----REGARDING GenericList.h----

DO NOT USE IT. Instead, Use Collections-C/src/list.h. It's a lot more robust, and better in every way.

_deprecated_

When defining a list, use define_list(item), but only use it where the list you are defining the item to have a list made out of it. Thatway, to use a list of that type, you only have to import the item.h file.

When defining a type, it has to be one word. So if the type is a struct, enum, or other sort of multi-word types, you need to typedef them.

_end_

----REGARDING COLORS----

Since Ncurses allows us to use the colors on the terminal, colors need to be
paired and maped to integers. The Following is that mapping:
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|F/B    |BLACK  |RED    |GREEN  |YELLOW |BLUE   |MAGENTA|CYAN   |WHITE  |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|BLACK  |01     |02     |03     |04     |05     |06     |07     |08     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|RED    |09     |10     |11     |12     |13     |14     |15     |16     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|GREEN  |17     |18     |19     |20     |21     |22     |23     |24     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|YELLOW |25     |26     |27     |28     |29     |30     |31     |32     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|BLUE   |33     |34     |35     |36     |37     |38     |39     |40     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|MAGENTA|41     |42     |43     |44     |45     |46     |47     |48     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|CYAN   |49     |50     |51     |52     |53     |54     |55     |56     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
|WHITE  |57     |58     |59     |60     |61     |62     |63     |64     |
+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+

While Modern Curses does support up to 256 Colors, Not every terminal does, so the basic 8x8 color pairings will hold until further notice.
