CECS 277 Project 6 Networked Galactic Risk

Expand on Project 5 to implement the following:

Server –

• Make the server the computer player.
• The server should be threaded.
• The server should receive all of the client’s moves and then respond accordingly.
• The computer should start with a home planet of its own color and a set population.
• Give the computer three different levels of AI:
  • the computer attacks random planets
  • the computer attacks nearby large planets first, then attacks the user.
  • the computer attacks large planets with low populations, performs checks to see if it has sufficient forces to attack, and attacks the user whenever it does.

Client –

• Make the client the interface for the user.
• The client should be threaded.
• The client should receive all of the server’s moves and update the board accordingly.
• The user should start with a home planet of its own color and a set population (same starting population as computer player’s).
• Allow the user to choose a computer AI level when starting.
