Python script

The Python script is the file "ct_cmd.py" (in the game folder), you have to edit it with your favorite editing software (Spyder, Emacs, Atom, ...).

Map commands

The level points will be spent for build or upgrade. So you have to know your level before action.

  • Get your level : ct_level ()

    • Return your level (integer)
  • Time management (temporization) : ct_sleep (delay)

    • delay : duration in seconds (float)

Tower commands

With your Python script, you can build, remove and upgrade your towers.

For each tower, you will be able to choose dynamically most appropriate techno (archer tower) or spell (mage tower).

  • Build a tower : ct_build (x, y, category, name, color, style)

    • x position (integer)
    • y position (integer)
    • category (string) : "Archer tower", "Mage tower" or "Barrack" (not implemented)
    • name (string)
    • color (RGB model) : purple, turquoise, magenta, orange, yellow, green, red or [R, G, B, 1]
