Rusty Battleship CLI Game

Welcome to the Battleship CLI game implemented in Rust! This project is part of my learning journey with Rust, and it includes several key features such as user input parsing, map rendering, and basic AI for the computer player.

Features

• User Input Parsing: The game accepts coordinates from the user to fire at the enemy ships.
• Map Rendering: The game renders the map for both the player and the computer, showing hits, misses, and remaining ships.
• Basic AI: The computer plays as the opponent with a basic algorithm to fire at the player's ships.

Example Output

Below is a sample output where the player won the game:

Getting Started

To get started with this project, follow these steps:

Prerequisites

• Rust (Make sure you have Rust installed)

Running the Game

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/battleship-cli.git
   cd battleship-cli

2. Build the project:

   cargo build --release

3. Run the game:

   cargo run --release

Playing the Game

When you run the game, you'll be prompted to enter coordinates to fire at the computer's ships. Enter the coordinates in the format x, y, where x and y are the column and row indices respectively.

Project Structure

• src/main.rs: The main entry point of the application. Handles the game main loop and user interactions.

• src/board.rs: Contains the board struct and related implementations and the AI algorithm for the computer player.

• src/ship.rs: Contains the Ship struct and related implementations.

• src/utils.rs: Utility functions for the game, contains the play input parsing function.
