SCoban – Sokoban Library for SC2

This is basically a Library to provide the quick basics of the original Sokoban-like Gametype.

What's Sokoban?

User your worker and WASD to push all "crates" in their storage box.

• You can only push a crate in the direction you are going (you can not pull it!)
• You can not push more than one crate at a time

For Mappers

To use this library on your custom maps:

• Create a Terrain; right now only cliffs will be checked whether the player can move there.
• The default (right now hard coded) box-size is 2.0. That means if you want a corridor a player can pass you need to make it at least 2.0 units in width. This will be the minimum box-size, because right now you are unable to create cliffs which are smaller than 4×4.
• Set up a nice interface if you want one, or use the one of the demo map
• Place Points on your map (align it to the grid) for the Player, each Crate and each Storage Box.
• Add/Edit the following in the Map Initialisation Trigger

SCobanInit(<Crate Unit Type>, <Player Unit Type>)
SCobanReset()
SCobanAddGameElement(<Element Type>, <Point>) for each Game Element
SCobanStart()

Things to do/Known Issues

• Timer and Number of Moves
• Competition mode for more than one player
• Right now there is an offset of 1 for aligning the game elements, meaning they are aligned to odd offset positions for X and Y, you could get odd results when using even numbers of grid positions
• Few performance enhancements
• Tons of formatting, documentation, etc. 🙂
• Whatever comes to my mind…

Feel free to post bugs/suggestions.

Have Fun
