Online Pong. Users can play matches of pong on a local network. Does not work on windows.
Make sure to look at installing before starting the program.
To run the local client, run the command python3 /pong.py in the ./pong directory. This will run the game. The game will load into a searching screen. In this screen UDP packets are broadcasted over the user's local internet looking for the match making server. To launch the server, run from the parent directory, python3 ./server/serverMain.py. You will need another player on that network to play with you.

Before running the code, you need to install the requirements. To do this run the command.
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
After that we need to make sure everything is setup correctly. Run, sudo python3 setup.py install. This will install all local packages so that there are no module errors.
Then you should be all set to go.
All tests will be ran in travis. Although, running the tests manually is also an option. We have 31 total tests. From the parent directory run the following commands to see the results of each one.
python3 ./tests/player_tests.py
python3 ./tests/ball_tests.py
python3 ./tests/server_tests.py
python3 ./tests/node_tests.py
python3 ./tests/tournament_tests.py
