ChessToTheDeath 0.1.3

About The Project

This project simply contains a custom chess variant in which every chess piece has it's own health and damage values. Therefor simply taking an enemy piece is not an option. Instead you have to fight it multiple times. The game ends when one of the Kings has no healthpoints left.

Help

Q: Why am i seeing weird characters like r in the console?

A: This project uses ANSI-Escape Codes to display colors in the Terminal. If you see these weird characters, then your Terminal does not support these Codes.

⚠️If you are using the Command Prompt on Windows 10 you can most likely solve this issue by going in the Registry under Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console and adding/editing the DWORD value VirtualTerminalLevel and setting it to 1.

Q: Is it possible to have a different board size/shape?

A: Yes, the -pos POSITION parameter supports different board widths and heights. Simply expand the notation with additional rows or columns.

Examples

python -m chess_to_the_death

python -m chess_to_the_death -default -pos "5Q/3k2/1p4/1Pp2p/2Pp1P/3P1K b" -noflip
