WARGUS(6) Games Manual WARGUS(6) NAME wargus - Warcraft II data game set for the Stratagus engine DESCRIPTION Wargus is data game set for Stratagus engine. This is only launcher and wrapper for Stratagus, and shares most of its commandline arguments. Wargus has specific command line arguments to quickstart a single player game. -c singleplayer -G map=(path-to-map),type=0,aiplayers=1,ais- cripts=(wc2-land-attack|wc2-air-attack|...),[reveal] These arguments start a single player game with one AI opponent using the selected AI script. -c singleplayer -G map=(path-to-map),type=2,aiplayers=2,ais- cripts=wc2-land-attack:wc2-air-attack These arguments start a quick machine vs machine game, pitting the land attack vs the air attack AI. This way of running the game can be very useful for evaluating different AIs quickly against each other, as well as for training external AI agents that interface through some other means with the game. This has been used (for example) to train a reinforcement learning AI to play the game. Wargus has specific command line arguments to start multiplayer games: -c multiplayer -G server,numplayers=(number),map=(path-to-map)[,dedi- cated,race=(orc|human),player=(nick),fow=(1|0),reveal=(0|1),re- sources=(low|medium|high),units=1] These arguments start a multiplayer server. It will directly se- lect the passed map and wait for numplayers players to join and become ready (including the server), before automatically start- ing the game. The numplayers and map arguments are required, the race, player nickname, fow (Fog of war), reveal (Reveal map), resources and units options are optional. Note that if there are spaces or other characters that must be escaped in the nickname or map path, you must escape them (or enclose the entire argu- ment in quotes). If the dedicated option is passed, the server will itself only be an AI player, and wait for numplayers clients to connect (excluding the server). -c multiplayer -G client,ip=(server-ip)[,race=(orc|hu- man),player=(nick)] These arguments start a multiplayer game as client. It will di- rectly join the specified server and announce itself as ready. The ip argument is required, the race and player nickname are optional. Note that if there are spaces or other characters that must be escaped in the nickname, you must escape them (or en- close the entire argument in quotes). See stratagus(6) for a full list of command line arguments. SEE ALSO stratagus(6), wartool(6), pudconvert(6) NOTES Warcraft II is a registered trademark of Blizzard Entertainment.
