Things are very miscellaneous right now, but development rolls along nevertheless. One interesting initiative is adjustments to default profession skill levels so that starting characters don’t feel like they are starting from 0 in all areas despite having a life before the cataclysm.
You like Retrodays but you don’t want to squint at tiny sprites? Well here’s a solution: GiantDays! Basically Nerodays tileset upscaled and redrawn to 20x20 sprites It’s currently available in the tileset repo github.com/I-am-Erk/CDDA-Tilesets/pull/2098and should get shiped with the game soonish
As a PSA, there is an official developer hosted Lemmy instance for CDDA. Making an account is developer only (alongside less reputable folks like moderators /s) to keep hosting costs somewhat sane, but anyone can visit/post/comment.
I’ve decided to add my Xedra Evolved Starter guide to our lemmy and hope that others will add their various guides that they’ve created. I’ll try and work on updating it as well as more content is added....
I was looking at a new PR that makes some nice tweaks to ISO tikeset handling (upper left screenshot) and decided to compare it to some other tilesets, and I’m just blown away by how different the options are.
