Find the latest commit, go the the GitHub Actions and download the corresponding zip file from the build artefacts.
For Mac, the zip file contains a .dmg file which contains a .app folder which can be run in the same way as any other Mac app.
For Windows, the zip file contains (among other things) bt_client.exe, which is the exe you should run to start the game
Make sure Qt6, box2d and msgpack are installed, then build using CMake:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make -j4
CMake may require some flags if you have not installed the dependencies system-wide.
Run the game using ./build/client/bt_client --server-exe ./build/server/bt_server
First you need a map. Some good candidates can be downloaded from the maps folder of this repository, or you can create one using the map editor.
Next, either join a server or start a local server. Then click create game, select the map, give the game a title and press Ok. Then select the game, click join.
You will then need to select which weapons and modules your tank will have. When you are ready, press Ok and you will join the game, assigned to the team with the fewest players.
Don't forget to check the controls cheatsheet first!
