Travian strat map

A small project to build a map of alliances on the browser game Travian.

It is an on-going project but I don't have much time to add all the features that I would want:

• Show un-accessible squares: oases, mountains...
• Identify villages: vdefs, voffs, treasure chambers, WV...
• Add cropper information to adjust threat level...
• Compute likely off operations (distances) to adjust defense plans

Dependencies

Fontconfig (for plotters)

• Arch Linux: fontconfig
• Debian-based systems: libfontconfig1-dev
• FreeBSD: fontconfig

Configuring the tool

The config is stored in a conf.yaml file. See the Travian forum for API key generation.

The config format is

key: <API PRIVATE KEY>
kingdoms:
  us: <KINGDOM NAME>
  allies:
    - <ALLY1 NAME>
    - <ALLY2 NAME>
    ...
  friends:
  hostiles:
  ennemies:
  neutrals:

Running

cargo run

This will produce a map.svg file with the map.
