Incorrect access modifiers

Description

Some of the classes in the project have getters for their contained values, but have them labelled as public anyway. These should be private/protected based on their inheritance.

This issue should be completed in:

Not a huge issue, but would be nice to change before we add onto the existing architecture. Should probably take about an hour, if that.

Make it easier to see selected/owned tiles

Very hard to see selected tiles atm. A colored inside of the tile in the form of a transparent cube or something would be preferable,

Sample Issue

Every timetabled meeting we have we start by having a scrum. Everyone says how far they've gotten on their assigned issues since last time, and says whats holding them up if they're behind or are falling behind. This isn't to shame them but so that other people can give help and suggestions.

Next, as a group we fill in the following for some issues people want to work on. This means that we all agree on whats being made, so hopefully we end up with a better design, and also everyone is aware of how other parts of the game are being designed.

Obviously for an issue like a small bug fix we don't need to do this and we can just create the issue like we did last assessment.

Description

This is a short description of the feature / enhancement etc.

Client Requirements

Which requirements does this relate to?

This is here as in assessment two many people did not check the requirements before implementing their feature, and changes had to me made.

Developer Requirements

Any requirements other developers have. For example:

The class must implement the button interface.

There must be a method which returns a list of Tiles suffering from this event.

Estimated completion time

This issue should be completed in:

2 hours,
4 hours,
1 day,
2 days

Anything larger should probably be broken into smaller parts.

This is here so that we can put a time scale on development and to make sure everyone works hard this assessment and we don't end up in a lab at 2am again.

If these is no change to report, please state and justify why no change was necessary.

Page Limit: Combined limit of 4 pages

Create Market Supply And Demand

Enable the market to raise or lower prices of selling and buying goods based on how many of each good it has in stock.

Roboticon installation fix multiple buttons

There are several buttons that do the same thing, these are not necessary.

Remove saving and loading from requirements.

We cant implement this in time. Say in the requirements list that the original scenario said games should be able to be completed in about 15-20mins or less so the need for save a load is unnecessary.

GUI needs to look more futuristic

Looks copy and pasted straight from Civ 1-6.

Start of event message in Gui

Display the event title and description when an event is successfully started

No visible roboticon or event on map

Make a visual representation of a roboticon on a tile
Make a visual representation of a random event on a tile

Icons include:
Donald Trump riding a pig - affects a block of tile(s)
Meteor strike - affects random tile(s)
Freshers flu - only affects tiles with roboticons on.

Installation of Roboticons

Description
The player should be able to install roboticons on their plots to increase productivity if they wish.
This phase should be time-limited

Clicking on UI also clicks the tile underneath

Unconfirmed, but i've heard that this is a problem with bug free. Clicking on some of the ui also clicks the tile below. Could cause problems especially during roboticon installation.

If the fix is hard we could just make the game fixed res and make sure the UI never is over a tile.

3D map file not displaying

Description

The 3d scene is stored as a blender file in the project, which requires blender to render. Having the file as a .obj file would solve this, as it is the universal file format for static 3D objects

This issue should be completed in:

Whenever Bugfree have the .obj file ready(They said they would get it)

Implementation Report

• Explain how your code implements your architecture and requirements
• Briefly explain any significant new features
• Give a systematic report of any significant changes made to the previous software
• State explicitly any of the features required for Assessment 3 that are not (fully) implemented.

(See assessment brief for more detailed information)

Page Limit: 4 pages

No End Phase button

If you have the roboticons menu open and no tile selected, when entering the purchase phase there is no end phase button.

Inconsistent function/variable naming

##Description

We are using the same naming conventions as last assessment(PascalCase for all methods and public variables, camelCase for private variables). It seems that Bugfree also did this but were a bit inconsistent. If you do come across any inconsistencies, be sure to change them(and make sure you don't break anything in doing so!)

##Time Limit
This is not a very high priority, just change things as you see them!

When ending a phase, the last selected tile is not interactable for the next player

Description

The last selected tile cannot be hovered over until another tile has been selected after a phase has ended

Steps to reproduce

1. Start a game
2. As player one, select a tile and click end phase
3. As player two, attempt to select the same tile, you cannot
4. You must first select another tile for the previous tile to become interactable again

Roboticon customisation bonuses

The bonus a roboticon gets from upgrading them, is this done using add or multiplication?
