Built: July 2023 – August 2023
Welcome to Constructor, a UWaterloo-themed remake of the popular board game Settlers of Catan. In our console edition of Constructor, four players can compete against one another on a local machine to build, trade, and expand their way up to victory (10 Building Points)!
- A 19-tile, resource-filled hexagonal game board that can be either randomly generated or manually configured, with built-in saving and loading capabilities;
- Roads and residences (basements, houses, and towers) that can be built and upgraded by players using their resources (BRICK, ENERGY, GLASS, HEAT, WIFI);
- Configurable dice, allowing players to switch between playing with loaded and fair dice on any turn;
- A standard Catan trading system, whereby players can propose and accept/reject offers for trading resources amongst themselves; and
- A goose (i.e., the robber) that can be moved around to block resource acquisition and steal resources from other players.
All of our unit tests are located in the tests folder under the root directory. To run the entire unit test suite, cd into tests and execute ./run_tests.sh.
Remember that you may need to grant file permissions to the test execution script with something like chmod +x run_tests.sh.
