build settlement Builds a settlement at the chosen location.

When it's the players turn, they can build a new settlement by giving the command build settlement. With that they will be asked where they want to build said settlement and to enter the coordinates, then the program will check if those coordinates are available or not. Then the program will subtract the resources needed to build a settlement. If the player has insufficient resources the settlement will not be built and an error message will appear. The turn of the current player will continue until the player ends it.

build city Builds a city at the chosen location.

During the players turn they can build a city on the same coordinates that they have already built a settlement on. To do that they have to enter the command build city. Then they have to add the coordinates that they want the city to be built at. If the coordinates are available and the settlement at that coordinate is of the same faction as the player then the city can be built there. The program will then check if the player has sufficient resources to build the city, then the program will subtract them of the players resources, otherwise the city won't be build and the player continues their turn until they end it.
