How to run the game:

	1. Install Pygame on your computer
	   Download Pygame from this website: http://www.pygame.org/download.shtml
	   If you experience difficulty, instructions can be found here: (Courtesy of Lukas Peraza)
	   https://qwewy.gitbooks.io/pygame-module-manual/content/installation.html

	2. Find your IP address on Google and update the following files:
	   a) 'server' - line 13
	   b) 'MAIN_player1_client' - line 19
	   c) 'player2_client' - line 18
	   d) 'player3_client' - line 18
	   e) 'player4_client' - line 18
	
	3. Run the 'server' file on your computer's terminal.
	   - Navigate to the directory containing your files using 'cd <path>'
	   - Run the file using 'py server.py'

	4. Run the 'MAIN_player1_client' file as script in any Python IDE.

	5. If playing Shoot Mode multiplayer across computers,
	   - Each player would have to download Pygame
	   - Each player must input the IP address used by player 1 to start the server in their client file
	   - On each computer, run the player client file as script in any Python IDE.

	   !!IMPORTANT!!
	   You MUST run the player files IN ORDER. Meaning player 1 will start the server, then run his/her client file. 
	   Then player 2 will run his/her client file, then player 3 and so on. Not following the order exactly will cause
	   the game to be undefined and it will not work properly.
