========== Capture the enemy King! ==========
============ Protect your King! =============
Controls:
Arrow keys/WASD to scroll.
Mouse to window edge to scroll.
Scroll to zoom.
Space to pause.
Tab to switch control between black and white.
Be nice and share the mouse/keyboard (or plug in two!).
Current control has green cover squares, enemy has magenta.
Left-click drag to select pieces.
Right-click drag to set destination area.
Click piece symbols to select all pieces of that type.
Control-click piece symbols to restrict the current selection to pieces of that type.
Delete sacrifices any selected pawns for money.
Upgrades:
Click the "Speed" and "Block" buttons to spend money on upgrades
Each upgrade costs 10*(level*level+1) money, and increases that stat's level by 1. That means the cumulative cost of upgrading a stat is cubic.
AI:
Click the AI buttons to switch between different AI modes for your units.
AI 1 (default) is *survive* (prioritise survival)
AI 2 is *evade* (don't walk into enemy cover, but take exchanges)
AI 3 is *advance* (walk into enemy cover if there is friendly cover or a piece to capture)
AI 4 is *kamikaze* (ignore enemy threats, go to destination and take any opportunity to capture a piece)
Block starts at 0% for all pieces and goes up 1% each time.
Speed starts at 30,40,50, or 60 and goes up by 1 each time.
This is an updated non-7dRTS version that displays these values on screen :)
