hounds's Issues

[URGENT] haresc logic v3, turn skip

hare escaped logic still isnt exactly ironed out yet

Better hare escaped logic

Written in Python as a proof-of-concept, transpile to Godot later:

def place_to_column(place: int) -> int:
  # 1 2 3 4 5
  # ---------
  #   2 5 8
  # 1 3 6 9 Y
  #   4 7 X

  if place == 1:
    return 1
  elif place in [2, 3, 4]:
    return 2
  elif place in [5, 6, 7]:
    return 3
  elif place in [8, 9, 10]:
    return 4
  else:
    return 5

def hare_escaped(hare: int, h1: int, h2: int, h3: int) -> bool:
  """
  hare escaped requirements
  
  1. all hound places are below hares place
  2. at least one hound is at least a column further than the hare
  """
  print(place_to_column(hare), place_to_column(h1), place_to_column(h2), place_to_column(h3))

  escaped: bool = False
  
  if hare == 11:
    return True
  
  if h1 > hare:
    escaped = True

  if h1 > hare:
    escaped = True

  if h2 > hare:
    escaped = True

  if h3 > hare:
    escaped = True

  hare_col = place_to_column(hare)
  
  if place_to_column(h1) > hare_col:
    escaped = False

  if place_to_column(h2) > hare_col:
    escaped = False

  if place_to_column(h3) > hare_col:
    escaped = False

  return escaped

(i know these are yandev-esque if statements, but this i don't intend on checking this because it'll be transpiled to godot later which I do this anyways because I just learnt GDScript)

[HOLD] Project Release Export Issues: empty array returned, unhandled input (Godot 4 alpha 10)

Issues

1. "pause" input is not recognised

   Potential Fixes:

   • change _unhandled_input to _input, perhaps it is actually being handled

2. Board.hare_potentials and Board.hound_poentials return an empty array

   Debug print statements show that the potentials: Array[int] arrays are being appended to, but become empty on return as shown in debug print statements from Game.focus_on

   Update: This is a known issue and is fixed. Waiting for Godot 4a11. (perhaps build from master?)
