RTSKit

A top-down real-time-strategy starter kit: selection, orders, economy, building, walls, training, combat, an AI opponent, a minimap and save/load, all driven by DataTables.

Documentation

The RTSKit building set, part of the included low-poly medieval art.

Highlights

• A working RTS to use as your template: gather, build, train and fight against an AI opponent that plays the same game
• Data-driven: units, buildings, resources and factions are DataTable rows, not classes
• Walls that autotile as you drag them, and gates that open for friendly units
• One validated server-side command path for the player and the AI, ready for multiplayer
• A full low-poly medieval art set: characters, wildlife, buildings, props, icons and cursors

Supports Unreal Engine 5.4. Current version: 1.0.
