Description

The type of game rule sets and assorted game data.

Synopsis

Documentation

data RuleKind Source

The type of game rule sets and assorted game data.

For now the rules are immutable througout the game, so there is no type Rule to hold any changing parameters, just RuleKind for the fixed set. However, in the future, if the rules can get changed during gameplay based on data mining of player behaviour, we may add such a type and then RuleKind will become just a starting template, analogously as for the other content.

The raccessible field holds a predicate that tells whether one location is accessible from another. Precondition: the two locations are next to each other.

Constructors

RuleKind
Fields rsymbol :: Char a symbol rname :: String short description rfreq :: Freqs frequency within groups raccessible :: X -> Point -> TileKind -> Point -> TileKind -> Bool rtitle :: String the title of the game rpathsDataFile :: FilePath -> IO FilePath the path to data files rpathsVersion :: Version the version of the game

Instances

Show RuleKind

A dummy instance of the Show class, to satisfy general requirments about content. We won't have many rule sets and they contain functions, so defining a proper instance is not practical.

ruvalidate :: [RuleKind] -> [RuleKind]Source

No specific possible problems for the content of this kind, so far, so the validation function always returns the empty list of offending kinds.
