Ok guys, here's the deal. It may take a bit for me to explain, but a lot for you to answer, so please have some patience because I have thought and thought and asked many people but no one can come up with a system for me. I'm having problems with a map, but I don't want to give away too much, so I'll list some important key details of the map to help you understand what you're dealing with.
Type of map
- Turn-Based Strategy
Layout
- There are [4x4] squares, each of which are connected together
- Each unit you have can take over 1 square, once every turn
- Each player has his own territory
- Each territory has a capital, a single building taking up a single square (This is where the problem starts)
Explaining the cause of the problem:
- Since an enemy of a player can take over his squares, it would be possible for a player's territory to be cut in half. Cutting in half a territory would leave one of the halfs without a capital.
Problem:
- Detecting when exactly the territory is cut in half.
There are 182 open spaces, not including the ones filled with water, which can't be used. I will use any trigger system that will work, as long as it doesn't take hundreds of triggers to perform, because unfortunately the only system I could think of would take 728 triggers.
Thanks for your help in advance, guys.
