How to Run

Java Server

• Open the ParticleSimulationServer.jar file in the main project folder. Or in the command line interface on the project main folder, use the command java -jar ParticleExplorerServer.jar

C++ Client

• Make sure to have cmake installed.
• Run the requirements.sh script either by double clicking or typing sh requirements.sh in a gitbash terminal.
• Run the run_cmake.sh script file either by double clicking or typing sh run_cmake.sh in a gitbash terminal to compile and build the cpp program.
• Run the Client by opening the ClientServer.exe file on the ./build/debug/ folder

*Notes:

• Make sure to have the project in a directory that doesn't contain spaces as this could cause problems with the requirements.sh script.
• CMake or Visual Studio must be installed on the machine to prevent problems with the script files.

How to Use

• To move the sprite around the panel, use the W, A, S, and D keys to move the sprite up, left, down, and right, respectively.
