Developed a Smart Player Spawning System for the so1unp/2025-lab-05 repository, focusing on strategic and reliable player placement at game start. The system was engineered in C and leverages server-side logic to prioritize spawning players in the outer regions of the game map, with a robust fallback to any available empty cell if no outer points are free. This approach reduces manual setup and mitigates spawn deadlocks, improving onboarding and early-game balance. The work demonstrates a methodical application of game development principles, emphasizing dependable initialization routines and thoughtful handling of edge cases to enhance the overall gameplay experience.
