<h2>download</h2>
<a href="https://github.com/griffi-gh/kubi/releases/tag/nightly">Latest nightly release</a>

<h2>build for windows/linux</h2>

**build/run**

```bash
cargo build --bin kubi
cargo run --bin kubi
```

**build in release mode, with nightly optimizations**

```bash
cargo +nightly build --bin kubi --features nightly --release
```

<h2>build for android</h2>

please note that android support is highly experimental!\
gamepad, mouse input is currently borked, and proper touch controls are not available.\
srgb and blending are broken too, which leads to many rendering issues

prerequisites: Android SDK, NDK, command line tools, platform-tools, latest JDK\
(make sure that your `PATH`, `ANDROID_HOME` and `ANDROID_NDK_ROOT` variables are configured properly)

**Setup:**

latest unpublished (git) version of cargo-apk is required

```bash
cargo install --git https://github.com/rust-mobile/cargo-apk cargo-apk
rustup target add aarch64-linux-android
```

**Build:**

`--no-default-features` is required for keyboard input!\
(`prefer-raw-events` feature *must* be disabled on android)\
Mouse input is not implemented, touch only!

```bash
cargo apk build -p kubi --lib --no-default-features
```

**Run on device (using adb):**

```bash
cargo apk run -p kubi --lib --no-default-features
```

<h2>touch controls</h2>

<img src=".readme/touch_controls.png" alt="touch control scheme" width="300">

- Left side: **Movement**
- Rigth side: **Camera controls**
- Bottom right corner:
  - **B** (e.g. place blocks)
  - **A** (e.g. break, attack)

<h2>mutiplayer</h2>

to join a multiplayer server, just pass the ip address as an argument

```sh
cargo run -p kubi -- 127.0.0.1:1234
```

<h2>server configuration</h2>

```toml
[server]
address = "0.0.0.0:12345"     # ip address to bind to
max_clients = 32              # max amount of connected clients
timeout_ms = 10000            # client timeout in ms

[world]
seed = 0xfeb_face_dead_cafe   # worldgen seed to use

[query]
name = "Kubi Server"          # server name
```
