Make Possible Commands clickable

Clicking on a Command adds it to the Code input field, not to the instructions list on the robot.

Resource size reduction should scale by % volume not % size

Future Ideas up for discussion

World

Natural Obstacles. The basic principle is to increase the difficulty of programming correctly. This will make the world come alive.
- Lava that flows in certain times, or permanently. Destroys robot if it touches it.
- Weather effects that has a chance to damage the robot
- Swap that cost extra energy to cross
- Huge Tremor like alien that attacks at a regular pattern (https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/f2/a5/cd/f2a5cda836297b29a7d49da94ffa8e8a.jpg)
- Wall of Fire crossing the land.
Neutral nomads. Quests, similar to City States in CIV.
Can find Thorium or such that can be harvested for extra energy, or placed a building ontop which serves as a energy station. Or such

Robots

New Robot type: Construction Robots, has instruction "BUILDING COMPLETE" and "REDO CODE" or something. that allows them to be reprogrammed when done. Or maybe they automatically have to be SCRAPPED to iron and copper when their task is done. Maybe thats more balanced, so you cant build an army of constructions robots, but instead its a temporary investment to contstruct faster.
New Robot type: Fertalizer, can increase growth and/or refertalize land. Or such.
New Robot type: BatteryRobot, has a huge secondary battery that itself (maybe) and other robots can charge from using a Charge Instruction. Meaning it has its normal "energy" and a "battery" value.
New Robot type: City Logistics Robot. Can automate city actions: Building robots, programming robots, sending robots out. etc.
Can clone a robot, the robot type, the code and the modules.
Show robot energy status in GUI somewhere?
New robot: pull robot, that pulls other robots
Flying robots? Very expensive, high energy demand.
Manned Robots
- Can be recalled.
- Costs 1 population to craft

Robots - Modules

Combat AI Module which allows two new instructions:
- Seek Nearest Enemy (might be to OP)
- Attack Nearby Enemy (maybe this should be the only allowable)
Harvest AI Module
- Seek Nearest Copper
- Seek Nearest Iron
- Seek Nearest Resource
Defensive Module
- Shoots on scavengers

Robots - Code

Save code as blueprints? We could call it "Save to GIT (Global Instruction Trunk)" ; )

Buildings

House: Allows more population.
Resource Depot (should be the first we try, as its the most interesting one)
Solar Rescharge Station
Harvesting Building,
Defence Tower,
Teleport Station
Walls as defence?
Takes a physical spot on the world and cant be passed.

Technology

Tech that unlocks Code Help
Teching is done with minipuzzles "SciencePuzzle", for instance that you should optimalize a route (using instructions in a non-world game board). And consume science on the way. Puzzles start easy the lower the tech. New robot ResearchRobot that is not present in the upper world. Puzzles can be randomly genereated at the start of the game and is the same for all players. New instructions: Jump and Dig. Maybe you can se a ghost form of other players robots.
- Puzzles placed below ground, using real game objects.

Other

Add support for turn based. Just need to tweak the WorldTicker
Game Mode - Defense: A horde of neutral attacking robots roams the map and attacks everything.
Win conditions:
- Wonder
- TyCooon style without win condition, but instead just a net worth?
Add Fog of War,
- Scout Robots, which is sent into the fog of war to scout it, can be viewed through a camera. When it returns it reveals that part of the map.
AI
Gathering resources near infection can have a chance of spreading it, meaning the infection resource object itself can carry "infection".
City Manager Robot with advanced instruction sets that can make it program other robots. Allowing you to fully automating the expansion of your resource gathering.

GUI

Insane GUI proposal: The GUI is actually a screen, the player can click a left or right button to switch between screens. For instance Screen 1 is the overview, Screen 2 is the tech tree. Imagine turning your head from screen 1 and screen 2. This indicates that you the player is actually a person in the game, sitting in his chair and looking at a screen. When switching, you can actually see that you look from screen 1 to 2.

Non-Functional

Host migration: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UNetHostMigration.html
StackingRobotsOverview probably has bad performance. Maybe look into.
Rewrite Instruction list to an tree. Se Abstract_syntax_tree

Buying robot costs resources

Add resource system to game

Clicking the city should spawn a new robot, which costs resources:
○ 3 Iron
○ 1 Copper

Add instruction LOOP START and LOOP END

    ○ LOOP START [COUNT]
        § Count indicates how many times the loop will run, if not given, infinite.
    ○ LOOP END

Player starts with two harvester robots

Clicking outside robot panel should close the panel

Sync Harvester inventory to clients

Destroying city leaves some stuff where it was

Instruction - DETECT ENEMY THEN MOVE HOME

Returns true if enemy is 2 tiles adjacent.

Syncing inventory for city/robot should be done more efficieniently

Rewrite the encode / decode methods to send simpler data. that indicates how many of each item it is. Instead of just sending everything.

Fix ground to scale on client as well

Button to salvage and reprogram robot

"Salvage next time when home" - Gives you 25% of robot cost back.
"Reprogram next time when home" - Cost 25% of robot cost (paid when you push button).

RobotPanel - Present all data

Health current/max
Damage
Inventory Capacity
ETCETC

Spawn robot that walks between tiles according to instructions WALK

Add support for WALK DIRECTION

Also syncs to client

Add Combat Robot

Add damage to Combat Robot
Harvester has 0 damage and 1 health

Allow instructions for Combat Robot
○ ACTION: Melee Attack

- Health: 5
- Damage: 1
- Memory: 15
- Energy: 30
- Cost:
    ○ 2 Iron
    ○ 5 Copper

Edge scrolling has to stop when mouse outside window

Does not work perfectly with windowed.
Does not work perfectly when debugging.

Make it only work right at the edge.

Define first pattern for instructions

Rename WALK to MOVE
Has to be able to call an class and get an object that represents "MOVE UP" or returns "MOVE UP". But it has to be strongly typed. Ala Instructions.MoveUp()

Run robot på client feiler i RobotPanel før synk av instruksjoner er gjort

Med en client. test å starte en robot og se at current instruction feiler litt i starten. Så funker det igjen. Du får ca 2.3 argumentOutOfRangeException
skjer nok fordi instruksjonen ikke blir synket helt instant, og dermed aksesseres av panelet før synk er gjort. Instruksjonen bør lagres av CLIENT først lokalt. Og sendes til server.

Add grid to plane

Robot Panel feedback

I think we should autoindent or something when LOOPS is used. for code readabillity.
Think we need more space for the code

Add robot speed

1 speed is normal, 2 speed makes it run two instructions per "tick".

Resource nodes should have an amount per tile.

Resource on hover should maybe show remaining resources

Now it is just an internal value that is printable when you click the resource. You can also tell by the size of the node.

Or maybe we should not do it like this? But keep it as secret information, and rather just let the size be the only indicator.

Spawn player and node positions over network

Add ACTION: RANGED ATTACK for all 4 directions

Add energy

Robots may run out of energy and stops
Robots recharge to max when touches PlayerCity
MOVE HOME costs just as much as it would if it was hardcoded.

Show preview of move directions

Show both when running code and when planning.
Has to be based on the RunNextIInstruction logic, the code has to be written reusable.
Arrows per tile. ÅÅÅÅÅÅHsexy

Define game ticks/time/game speed

RobotPanel - Make code copyable

Generate a random world

Spawn location Player 1
Spawn location Player 2
Some Copper nodes
Some Iron Nodes

Remove automatic looping of Code. Include a LOOP START and LOOP END in demo

Create new Network GUI

Se på kildekode til NetworkManager HUD.
https://bitbucket.org/Unity-Technologies/networking/src/2bdd9961092c4a73443c09694cff5dde9e56f9f1/Runtime/NetworkManagerHUD.cs?at=5.4&fileviewer=file-view-default
Meaning joining game takes a nickname as input.

Smart resource spawning

Should spawn x tiles close to player reserved spots

Limit robot instruction by robot memory

André thinks:

Define memory is HarvesterClass. No setting for now.
Verify that instructions is not longer than memory
Limit inputrows of code i HarvesterPanel by memory

I think the feedback stuff should be wrapped in a method.

Can attack own city and robots

Hard to detect if an game object belong to attacking game object. Because we use HasAuthority to detect stuff like that. But this code runs on the server.

Lets rediscuss this.

Autoindent LOOPS

More space for Code
Every time a user inputs a key, we should re-indent the whole code by the logic:
- LOOP START: indent after
- LOOP END: Less indent from END and below.
Trim input from GUI. ALways.

Something like that.

[Command]
private void CmdSyncMeAllChildParentRelations()
{
    //List<ParentChildPair> pairs = new List<ParentChildPair>();

    //TODO: Make part of some loading stuff
    foreach (GameObject go in FindObjectsOfType<GameObject>()) // Må endres til bare å finne NetworkIdenty greier
    {
        if (go.transform.parent != null)
            RpcSyncChildParentRelation(go, go.transform.parent.gameObject);
            //pairs.Add(new ParentChildPair(go.transform, go.transform.parent));
    }

    //return pairs;
}

[ClientRpc]
public void RpcSyncChildParentRelation(GameObject child, GameObject parent)
{
    Debug.Log("SYNCING CHILD PAR LOL PC");
    if (child == null)
        Debug.Log("Child is null");
    else
        Debug.Log("Syncing child " + child.name);

    if (parent == null)
        Debug.Log("Parent is null");
    else
        Debug.Log("Syncing parent " + parent.name);

    if (child == null || parent == null)
        Debug.Log("Skipping");
    else
        child.transform.parent = parent.transform;
}

Detect Lose condition - PlayerCityObject destroyed

Remove all player related objects
Popup "Lost game"
Let everyone stay in the game.

If the tile is empty, the robot just stands there.
