Starting The Basic RTS Game Project Structure

First, let's start by slowly building the project structure. I mentioned that I'll be using Monogame. I previously set up a Monogame template in VS 2022, so I can create a project directly. You can take look from this link(Setting up Visual Studio on Windows | MonoGame) I created LdgRpg project as monogame desktop cross-platform project.

I executed and I can see cornflowerblue color filled display. First, I want to add my character. Therefore, I will create an entities folder and add a class called Character. In this class, I will define general properties of this character, such as its position, speed, and size.

Of course, I'll have a general character pool. Therefore, I'll create a manager class to manage this character collection collectively. I also want to assign GUIDs to my characters; this might be useful later.

Normally, Monogame offers a class like Game1, but I want to build my own separate structure. Of course, I will use this structure within the Game1 class. I'm creating my own game manager. This manager will be the hub for managing all other managers.

protected override void LoadContent()
{
    _spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);
    gameManager = new GameManager();
    // TODO: use this.Content to load your game content here
}

Now we need to add some ridiculous character texture. I'll create a texture manager structure for this. Because managing textures one by one is too much trouble. And let's draw it:

And there it is my little ugly man right there. That's enough for now.
