How to navigate the folders

turtle movement and turtle tracker

the turtle movement and tracker source codes are in the src scripts directory named turtle_movement.py the turtle movement takes the input of the user and controls the turtle while the tracker tracks positions, health and attacks

Bash scripts

running new_turtle.sh creates a new turtle, setup.sh allows control of the turtle thats spawned in at the start of the game, and startgame.sh starts the tracker script each of this scripts with the exception of startgame.sh adds in the name of the turtle to the text file located in the text directory the text file is used to hold all turtles so that the tracker script can track them all, hence all turtles must spawn in first as the startgame.sh takes all the turtles names as arguments the script that adds in the name of each turtle is located in the scripts directory
