Random C++ Projects I made

Some random C++ projects by me for fun and learning.

Includes:

• BattleEngine: A heavily customizable turn-based battle game.

Build from Source

NOTE: These instructions have not been tested on Windows or OSX. If you run into any issues with this, open a new issue.

BattleEngine

• You will need a C++ compiler. I recommend G++, but any should work fine.
• You will need vcpkg and install that on your system. You can find instructions on their page linked.
• Install Git on your system.
• Install CMake.
• Run git clone https://github.com/CombineSoldier14/cpp-projects.git in a free directory.
• In the directory, run vcpkg install. If you run into errors, install any dependencies that are needed.
• In the battle-engine directory, create a new directory called build
• Enter the build directory and run cmake .. (you may need administrator privileges)
  • If you get an error about missing CMake configs, you will need to locate the nlohmann_jsonConfig.cmake file yourself, located somewhere in your vcpkg directory depending on your OS. For me, it's ~/vcpkg/buildtrees/nlohmann-json/x64-linux-dbg/. On Windows it may be different. Once you find the directory, run CMake again but as cmake .. -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=<config-directory>.
• Then run make in the build directory. (again you may need administrator privileges)
• After that finishes, you now have a compiled binary of BattleEngine! You will need a settings.json in the same directory as it for it to work correctly.
