Hello peeps!
TankX updated with single player support and some other improvements. How long can you survive against the computer tanks? Personally I'm having really hard time against three scary tanks. |

So am I remembering that correctly that this didn't have a single play option back then? |

After quite a lot of trial and error and testing (thanks ztronzo ) I think it's pretty good now. You can basically adjust the game difficulty by selecting how many CPU tanks you play against. Six is maximum, and then it's really difficult with the scary CPU driver. |

Yet another TankX update now with even more tanks!
Support added for the upcoming multi-joy/octaplayer adapter by https://www.alinea-computer.de. With this adapter you get eight additional joystick ports, so it is possible to connect a total of 10 joysticks and have a proper tank mayhem. Naturally you can assign the CPU to drive the extra tanks for more difficulty, and try to survive against them. Further details in the readme. |

Regarding to "the computer always wins" comment, you should practice some more I can manage against three computer tanks myself. Some background on the computer tanks for the interested readers: When designing the "artificial intelligence", I decided that the computer should not actually be a cheater, instead it should have the same facilities as a human player would. For movement, the computer has a virtual joystick to control the tanks. To drive around and avoid obstacles, they have sensors that look for objects near the tank. To find enemies to shoot at, they have a rotating radar that takes about a second to do a full revolution. If you end up in the shooting range of a cpu tank, it will take around a second for it to find you and then another 0-2 seconds to aim and shoot at you Granted the "AI" is pretty tough, maybe there should be a fourth CPU driver that is easier compared to the current three ones... |
