# Number Scrabble/Pick 15/3-to-15 in Urbit

This is a Pick 15 game based on the [tic-tac-toe for urbit](https://github.com/yosoyubik/tic-tac-toe)

![Alt Text](pick15.png)

## Features

- Network multiplayer.

- Board state printed in the console

- Structures in `/=home=/sur` and marks for updates

- Fixes an [issue](https://github.com/urbit/arvo/issues/1100) with removing the head of a queue using a custom library (`%cola`)

- Notifications for game invitation

- Uses queue instead of list to keep track of incoming and outgoing subscriptions

  - TODO: Research Gall/Hall to replace this

- Pending requests to play are queued and pulled after current game finishes.

- Styled text to print crosses and noughts on board, and game notifications

## Local install

This might take some time to compile, seat tight!

    cp app/pick15.hoon /path/to/your-urbit/home/app

    cp -r mar/pick15 /path/to/your-urbit/home/mar

    cp sur/pick15.hoon /path/to/your-urbit/home/sur

    cp lib/cola.hoon /path/to/your-urbit/home/lib

## Start playing!!

In your urbit's Dojo, run the command:

    ~your-urbit:dojo> |start %pick15

The list of commands are:

- `'~ship-name'`: sends request to ~ship

  - Only if the prompt is `| shall we play a game?`

- `'!'`: cancels the current game. (if any, unqueues next subscription)

- `'l'`: list current subscriptions (any time during the game)

  - ![list|20%](subs.png)

- `'9-1/1'`: stone (`[1-9]`) and board coordinates (`[1-3/1-3]`)

  - Only if the prompt is `| ~zod vs ~marzod | [number-row/col]`

- `'Y'`: confirm/reject request to play `[Y/N]`

  - Only if the prompt is:

    - `| ~zod wins! continue? (Y/N) |`

    - `| waiting for ~zod (!=quit) |`

## In Progress

- Refactor code

- Follow `/=home=/gen/deco.hoon` best-coding practices (deprecated)

- Follow [code style](https://urbit.org/docs/learn/arvo/style/)

- Remove old three/four letter variable names

- Using Hoonian idioms

## TODO

- Partial board re-paint on each move.

- Web frontend

- Single-player mode

- Send multple requests to multiple ships

- Don't block game waiting for a confirmation

- Cancel a specific request from the list of subscribers

- Write-up a blog post documenting the code
