git clone https://github.com/chimpansiets/Corewar.git
Running 'make' in the directory will install all dependencies and create two executables.
- asm (for the assembler, which compiles .s files into .cor files)
- corewar (for the virtual machine, which runs the main program)
make
First off you want to compile your champions from pseudo-assembly (.s) into the corresponding Corewar language.
./asm redcode_file.s
The main executable handles up to 4 champions. To see how the actual corewar operates, please reference the corewar.pdf.
./corewar [-dump nbr_cycles] [[-n number] champion1.cor] ...
There are many options, including (again, read corewar.pdf for more info):
-dump number To dump memory after 'number' of cycles.
-s To set the optional speed of the game (1 is fast, 100 is slow)
-viz To display the visualizer.
-n playernum champion To set the player number of the Champion.
-a / -activity To show an activity monitor, which displays the number of processes being executed in the current cycle.
-r / -rainbow [1 - 10] To enable rainbow mode, with optional speed of 1 to 10.
