Part 6/9:
Expanding Game Features
Introducing features like warp lanes enhanced strategic depth. Initially functioning incorrectly, adjustments were made to ensure players could navigate the grid effectively. Emphasizing the importance of clarity in game design, the terminology for essential components like bases versus command centers was meticulously refined to avoid confusion in code.
Bases played a pivotal role in the game, leading to the introduction of attackable base mechanics along with the first win condition—destroing the enemy's base. To facilitate building units and managing in-game resources, a build menu was constructed, allowing players to initiate unit creation with waiting periods to bolster strategic planning.
