## Overview

OpenZ is a Unity-based, full-3D remake of the real-time strategy game Z. The main player journey is choosing a general and battlefield, issuing commands to armies, fighting for territory, and reaching a battle outcome; documented extensions include difficulty modes, scores, and a standalone unit editor. The tree excerpt exposes many Unity Editor scripts but no runtime source excerpts, so subsystem paths use existing enclosing directories and edges are limited to relationships stated in the README.

Main entry points: [`source/Assets/OpenZ/Scripts`](https://github.com/playopenz/openz/tree/main/source/Assets/OpenZ/Scripts) (Game Menus), [`source/Assets/OpenZ/Scripts/Editor`](https://github.com/playopenz/openz/tree/main/source/Assets/OpenZ/Scripts/Editor) (Unit Editor)
