Class Main

java.lang.Object

Main

public class Main
extends java.lang.Object

Main driver class for the Game. The game has a number of program arguments, with only two that are **required** to function.

• --data={data filename}
  data file needed for the game, contains MOBs and Fortunes
• {save filename}
  save file needed for the game, contains knights

Both are optional, as they have default values.

Examples:

     java Main 
     java Main savedData.csv
     java Main --data=gamedata.csv
     java Main --data=gamedata2.csv mygame.csv
 

Note: while not required, it is also useful to have a --debug and --verbose (or -d and -v). If using the provided Logger.java, the argument to enable it was --debug-level={int}.
