Making a game

This tutorial features how to make a Tic-Tac-Toe game only using notepad!

[1]First off, launch Notepad

[2]Type this into the notepad

 code:

@echo off

title Banzai's Tic Tac Toe

title Noughts and Crosses

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

::~ ^^^ Stops all commands appearing on screen, sets the title and enables the use of ! for environment variable

:menu

cls

echo Main Menu

echo To Play A 1-Player Game, Enter 1

echo To Play A 2-Player Game, Enter 2

echo To Exit, Enter 3

set /p menu=

if not defined menu goto menu

if /i %menu% equ 1 (

set menu=

cls

goto 1p

)

if /i %menu% equ 2 (

set menu=

cls

goto 2p

)

if /i %menu% equ 3 (

goto end

)

set menu=

goto menu

::~ ^^ The menu system, gives all the options, allows the user to input a number using "set /p menu="

:~ If the user didn't enter a value, it 'goto's back to ask again.

::~ Checks the Menu variable, tests to see if it matches 1, 2 or 3, then 'goto's the appropriate place.

set turns=0

set x1=0

set x2=0

set x3=0

set o1=0



set o2=0

set o6=0



set o7=0



set o8=0



set o9=0









::~ Sets the number of turns taken so far to 0



::~ Sets all the places on the noughts and crosses grid to 0















set d1=1



set d2=2



set d3=3



set d4=4



set d5=5



set d6=6



set d7=7



set d8=8



set d9=9









::~ Sets the display characters for game to their appropriate number









set rnumber=%random%



set rnumber2=%rnumber%



set /a rnumber= %rnumber% / 2



set /a rnumber= %rnumber% * 2









::~ Sets a variable "rnumber" to a random number



::~ Sets a variable "rnumber2" to the same number as "rnumber"



::~ Divides "rnumber" by two, then multiplies by two.



::~ If the number was even, it would be equal to "rnumber2", if it was odd it would end up one less than "rnumber2"



::~ This is the method I use to create a 50% chance, as there's a 50% that a random number will be odd or even

echo Crosses go first



echo You are noughts

goto 1display



) else (



echo Noughts go first



echo You are noughts



pause>nul



set rnumber=



set rnumber2=



set go=1ogame



goto 1display



)









::~ This tests to see if the numbers are equal, then sets the "go" variable to whichever possibility came out and deletes the "rnumber" variables



::~ Then 'Goto's the display

if /i %turns% equ 9 (goto draw)



echo.



echo Your Turn



echo.



goto %go%









::~ ^^ Displays the current status of each place in the grid. At the start these will all just be numbers.



::~ Checks that the turns hasn't reach nine. If it has, all the spaces on the grid have been used up and nobody has won, so the game is a draw.









:1ogame



echo Choose the number of the space you'd like to choose



set guess=



set /p guess=



if not defined guess goto 1display



set guess=%guess:~0,1%



if /i not %guess% leq 9 goto 1display



if /i not %guess% gtr 0 goto 1display



if /i !d%guess%! neq %guess% goto 1display



goto 1o%guess%









::~ Asks the user to input the number of the space they want to choose and allows them to using "Set /p"



::~ If the user didn't input or entered something that wasn't a number between 1 and 9, it 'goto's back, to ask again



::~ Checks that the number hasn't been already chosen by checking that !d%guess%! is equal to guess. This works becauseif the user guesses 1, d1 should equal 1.



::~ If it has already been chosen, d1 would be a O or a X, so it would not be equal.



::~ 'Goto's the number chosen.

::~ The space of the number chosen on the display grid is changed to the correct letter (X or O) and a number is added to the %x-% grid and the %o-% grid.



::~ These two grids are used to work out whether someone has won, and allows the computer to work out which place to go next.
