Captain Gamemode

[Muparadzi]

Based on the Native gamemode, players are given control of a number of troops that they are able to command.

• Number of bots are split by commanders, based on their equipment value.
• As more players connect, the bot count also reduces, leading to a normal battle server as player count reaches total bot count.

Gamemode

• Number of bots to spawn controlled by server config
• Number of players reduces numbers of bots in a team
• Spawn bots if singleplayer
• Design and implement singleplayer bots (maybe different themed armies?)
• Rudimentary singleplayer balance system (calculate number of bots to spawn based on player army value)
• Create army composition from player settings
• Fix bot bows

Web

• Captain mode icon & online players
• Localisation
• Captain page, to select (3?) characters to make up your army (selected from the player's own characters, allows customisation, incentivises the levelling of alts, & spending of loom points and gold)
• UTests

Bugs

• OnBotKills exception
• Invisible troops
