Required Skills: Python, some C++

Difficulty: Easy

The engine start mode should be configurable via the CLI. There are only 2 relevant start mode right now:

  • full: starts game simulation with graphics
  • headless: starts game simulation without graphics (mainly for MP servers)

The parameters should be defined in the Python CLI and then passed through to the engine instantiation.

Tasks:

  • Define parameters in Python for submodules main and game
  • Pass engine mode to C++ invocation main_arguments struct
  • In C++, pass engine mode to Engine constructor
