A project we have been working on for a while. The end goal is to create a civilization that can grow and explore on it's own though artificial intelligence by setting goals for itself, learning what it needs to do to accomplish those goals.
To run this you must Install PyGame - http://www.pygame.org/download.shtml
Start with python UpdatingVillagerSim.py
Additional start flags:
python UpdatingVillagerSim.py [fullscreen] [world size] [hard shadow]
fullscreen is a boolean value (0 / 1) that controls if the game will start fullscreen or not. WARNING: If running on linux, if the program crashes while in fullscreen mode it is difficult to close.
world size is an integer (preferably an order of magnitude of 2) that controls the dimensions of the tile map of the game world. The game world is a square so you only need to supply the value of one side (e.g. 64).
hard shadow is a boolean value (0 / 1) that controls if the shadow from elevation is rendered on the game world or just the minimap.
Note, you cannot just select hard shadow without the other two, nor world size without fullscreen.
