Battleship is a game made with Java. It is te typical battleship game, where two players place a fleet of ships on a 10x10 matrix, and the take guesses each turn to find and sink the opponent's ships.
There are two boards visible at each turn, the opponent's and the player's. When the player make a correct guess, it show the X mark on the board. When it's a miss it shows M. With 0 are the locations of the ships.
There are five ships available to be placed on the board:
- Aircraft Carrier (5 cells)
- Battleship (4 cells)
- Submarine (3 cells)
- Cruiser (3 cells)
- Destroyer (2 cells)
There are three ways to place the ships on the board:
- Manually
- Automatically
- From a file
The player enters the coordinates of the board, where wants to place the ship.
The program places the ships automatically. This feature is not currently working
