I noticed the ants project didn't have some features seen in previous ant projects, to name a few:
- The new ant graphics!!
- Names of the ants above without having to click on them
- TankAnt covered up ants behind it making it impossible to see what ant you had placed there — I altered the frames of the gif in GIMP and made it translucent (I also made BodyguardAnt aligned right on top of the head of each of the ants, in such a cute manner, see bottom photo):
- A new water color (you can customize the color by ctrl+f'ing change water color here in ants_gui.py):
- Changed the select color to green:
- Other misc features
I also made an autoinstall script named anime.sh to thank Animesh for letting me know about the Fall 2019 graphic files but then I accidentally rm'd the script (RIP) so I hosted the relevant files on GitHub here: https://github.com/rsha256/New-Ants-GUI
For those wondering the only things I changed were ants_gui.py and assets/ so you should be able to just add your own ants.py (I have the locked tests/ dir in here so you will need to also reunlock tests or copy-paste your tests/ dir as well to get it to submit)!
I made this open-source so the instructors could use these graphics in the future, if people think this is cool — also feel free to make an issue/PR for more features!
