Indeed.

That mess of code is one of the reasons you don't make games with lua. :P

That mess of code is one of the reasons you don't make games with lua. :P

it's the only language I know and the only language I have and will ever bother to learn

so you might as well shut the forget up with stuff like this because I'm sick and loving tired of it and I will never, ever loving switch

get that through your head damnit

it's not even the language's fault, I still have yet to find a good way to organize everything to where it won't end up as a clusterforget

You sound angry.
I don't really care if you switched or not. My point still stands.

And he doesn't have to switch because you think Lua is such a messy language.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO



































REALLY!?

doubletoast time

i've thought about instead of making everything run at the same time, i would use a system of ticks where a certain amount of possibly upgradable time will pass before a mass of actions will happen in advancing the game, such as progress in building something, fishing, farming, mining, etc.

this would be much less stressful for me to make, and it would speed up the game if anybody got any kind of lag at all (i had some lag when I had linux)

And the messages will now appear in a prompt on the bottom right of the screen, advancing messages like +# wood or something.
here's an example of ticks

the tick time is variable, of course

[Daedalus]

I like the elevation but you should turn down the randomness in it :o
