Hill Disappears

[randombits01]

Sometimes the game would not end when an enemy hill was attacked. Instead the hill would disappear, and the game would continue on. (Ants are still able to spawn at their normal location.)

@randombits01 Will investigate

Is there logic that might set the hill to "open space" on accident?

@randombits01 I think the reason that hills disappear is food spawns on them!

 if (rng.NextDouble() < _chanceToSpawnFood)
{
    var x1 = rng.Next(0, midWidth);
    var y1 = rng.Next(0, midHeight);
    var potentialCell = GetCell(x1, y1);
    if (potentialCell.Type != CellType.Wall) ////<-  AAAAAA!!!!!
    {
        GetCell(x1, y1).Type = CellType.Food;
    }
}

That would explain why the UI stops rendering and why the win condition could never fire.

// Check for win condition
var winningAnt = newAnts.FirstOrDefault(a => GetCell(a.X, a.Y).Type == CellType.Hill && Hills[a.Owner].X != a.X && Hills[a.Owner].Y != a.Y);

// update cells UI
game.Board.Cells.forEach(function(cell) {
    var $td = $("#board tr").eq(cell.Y).find("td").eq(cell.X);
    $td.prop("class", "");

    if (!cell.Ant) {
        switch (cell.Type) {
        case "Space":
            $td.addClass("space");
            break;
        case "Wall":
            $td.addClass("wall");
            break;
        case "Food":
            $td.addClass("food");
            break;
        case "Hill":
            $td.addClass("hill");
            break;
        }
    } else {
        $td.addClass("ant player-" + game.Players.indexOf(cell.Ant.Owner));
    }
});
