Galactic Sea Battle - Battleship with multiplayer server written in Java using Javafx and Sockets

A variation of the classic Sea Battle game with some new additions like having different kinds of ships with different powers, moving ships accross the board and buying new ships.

• The client is written in java and uses Javafx for it's GUI.
• The server is written in java and uses scokets. it can handle multiple players and games at the same time.
• The game logic is also implemented in the server, meaning every request is checked and validated.
• The server uses a HTTP like protocol to communicate with the clients. You can develop a client side appplication in another language and use the server as your game logic.

The codebase is heavily commented and is easy to navigate.

Dependencies:

• Gson

• Javafx

Compiling

If you're facing gtk problems(it's a known bug with some versions of javafx), change to gtk 2. just add the following VM argument after the java command:

java -Djdk.gtk.version=2 --module...

Here's an example on how to compile and run and javafx client:

javac --module-path $PATH_TO_FX --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -d ./bin -cp src/lib/*.jar src/**/*.java
java -java --module-path $PATH_TO_FX --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -cp bin:src/lib/gson-2.8.6.jar App
"PATH_TO_FX" : "/path/to/your/javafx-sdk-*-/lib"

Java Server:

javac -g src/**/*.java -d ./bin
java -cp "lib/gson-2.8.6.jar:bin" App
