## :toolbox: *Work In Progress*

- [x] working chess board representation

- [ ] full move validation and checkmate/stalemate detection

- [ ] fairy pieces

- [ ] chess variants

- [ ] chess AI

### Additional:

- [ ] example working implementation

## :hammer_and_wrench: How to use

### Regular chess

```csharp

using ChessSharp;

// create a new game

var game = new ChessGame

(

    // add players

    new Player("P1", Color.Blue, AttackDirection.North),

    new Player("P2", Color.Red, AttackDirection.South)

);

while (!game.IsOver)

{

    // get board and do something with it (display it, etc.)

    _ = game.Board;

    

    // get current player name and do whatever you want with it

    _ = game.CurrentPlayer.Name;

    

    // ask user for coordinates of piece and get piece from that coordinates

    // for example user entered 0, 1

    var selectedPiece = game.Board[0, 1].Piece

                        ?? throw new Exception("There is no piece under given coordinates");

                        

    // now you can get and for example display valid moves for that piece

    var moves = selectedPiece.GetValidMoves();

    

    // and finally you can execute that move, like this:

    moves

        .ElementAt(new Random().Next(moves.Count()))

        .ExecuteMove();

        

    // or like this, using coordinates

    moves.First(m => m.DestinationCell is { X: 0, Y: 3 }).ExecuteMove();

    

    // or even like this (probably most readable)

    var selectedCell = game.Board[0, 3];

    moves.First(m => m.DestinationCell == selectedCell).ExecuteMove();

}

// display result of the game

Console.WriteLine(game.Winner is not null ? $"{game.Winner.Color} player won!" : "Stalemate!");

```
