On some platforms, the game will crash if SDL attempts to render to the screen/window while the game is backgrounded. To prevent this, stop rendering when the game enters a background state and resume rendering when the game enters a foreground state. |

Building
Prerequisites
- Mac OS X
- Xcode 5 (or later) with Command Line Tools installed
- Install Command Line Tools from Xcode Preferences... Downloads.
Building the Hostile Takeover Executable
- Within Xcode, open
game/wi.xcodeproj.
- Select a Build Configuration via Edit Scheme...Info
- Debug (default). Has extra runtime checks and is typically used during development. Displays "DEV BUILD" and date on Hostile Takeover startup screen. The Debug version requires a local server to be running for multiplayer testing.
- Release. W/o extra runtime checks. Displays date on Hostile Takeover startup screen.
- Distribution. Same as Release but displays game database version number on Hostile Takeover startup screen.
- Distribution-Store. Same as Distribution but is signed with a necessary key for redistribution in the iTunes App Store. NOTE: You'll have to get your own key if you want to distribute through the App Store.
- Adhoc. ???
- Build and run!
- On your device or in the iOS Simulator.
Building the Hostile Takeover Data File
The Hostile Takeover iOS executable incorporates a data file, htdata832.pdb, which includes all the art, audio, and levels for the game. A prebuilt version of this data file is already in the source tree so you don't need to build it unless you are modifying assets it contains.
Originally all of Hostile Takeover was developed on Windows using Windows tools like Visual Studio and C#. To build the data file on the Mac, the cross platform Mono framework is used.
- Install the Mono runtime environment.
- Available from http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html. Version 3.4 (Mono MRE installer) is known to work.
cd datamake IPHONE=1 MULTIPLAYER=1 clean all- some harmless warnings will be displayed
- Mark the data file with a version number.
cd ..bin/markversion 1.6
Building and running the Hostile Takeover Multiplayer Server
Hostile Takeover supports single player and multiplayer play. Multiplayer is supported by two server components: a TCP based game server located in the server directory, and an HTTP based server located in the stats directory used for accounts, leaderboard, game history and game stats.
- The game server is a command line server which builds can be built and run on OSX or Linux. The game server is does not (currently) build and run on Windows. The production server environment is expected to be Linux based.
cd server- make REL=1 clean all (for a release build)
- make clean all (for a debug build)
Please refer to the README.txt in the server directory for more detailed information on how to run the server environment in development and production.
Tools
The bin directory contains many command line tools used to build the htdata file. There are also GUI tools for editing maps (M) and animations (AniMax).
The GUI tools have primarily been used on Windows and are best described as 'flaky' on the Mac. If you want to give level editing a try on a Mac:
mono bin/m.exe
- File > Open
- Select a .ld (level description) file from the
datadirectory. - There is an m.chm file for M help. m.chm is a Windows specific file format. There is also an overview on the web found here: http://sites.warfareincorporated.com/mission-authoring/
See Building the Hostile Takeover Data File for instructions on how to rebuild the data file after making changes to any level, image, sound files or other game assets.
