This is a QT port of the Peter Sovietov's DandyBot (https://github.com/true-grue/DandyBot) which was written in 2021-2022.
Ported from Python and Tkinter to the QT framework and C++ by Vad Nik (https://github.com/vadniks/DandyBotNative) in 2023.

User can interact with the game in two ways: manually press keyboard buttons
in order to move the player character or write a C script using the provided
header and build script inside the sharedLib folder and then build a shared
library with CMake. This library then will be loaded at runtime by the game
and the script will be executed on each tick.
Entry point of the shared library is the only available function in it - script(...). It has several useful parameters such as current coordinates and objects around the player. The function must return one of the predefined action such as move left or right.
Script debugging via TUI is also supported.
The library itself is compiled by either GCC or Clang on Linux x86_64 and is built by
CMake. The whole build process can be initialized via the supplied shell script build.sh.
After successful execution of the build shell script both executable & shared library can
can be found at bin directory. Use of the chmod +x build.sh command might be useful in
order to grant execution permission to launch the script.
Script parameters and return value is described in detail in the script.h header file
which can be found at sharedLib folder.
Programs needed to build the game & the shared library containing a script:
clang or gcc, cmake, make and some text editor. Also, the QT Framework
packages & headers must be presented in user's linux distribution.
