Yeah, that's the one. I didn't follow the details too closely (monitoring that whole scene just frustrates me), but I remember just being baffled at how arbitrary the guy is. I did find it funny that they dumped the game on Steam for $20. It'd be hilarious if another group did the same thing with a fork that cut out a bunch of the bullshit, assuming that there's no legal bar to that.
I suspect wormgirl is eventually a woman, and most likely white too. It's hard to believe a tranny lover woke nutjob like Kevin shit on a fellow tranny.
Magical Nights is the successor. It will be mainlined soon.
Wow the demon spiders were genuinely a problem, funny (but expected) to see that at the top of his list
TBH I liked the autistic food mechanics (which IIRC BN simplifies.) I may try it out one day though, I haven't updated from the 2021 version of CDDA in order to avoid the poz lol
I've been working on making my own little mod to try and peel some of that stuff out, but I'm not super experienced with JSON and all. Things like the 700 gay flags and stocking variations of said flags. But my god, there's just so much now. Just the other day I was playing I noticed graffiti on a building saying "X is a heteronormative bigot" and a newspaper article talking about Contrapoints of all things. It's almost parody.
BN does have autistic nutrition mechanics, it's just the "simplified nutrition" (which disable vitamins) mod is turned on by default. You turn that off, and it's basically the same as DDA (except there is no obesity mechanics). IMO you should at least try BN, it will feel a natural jump/upgrade from 2021 version.
I know a guy who temporarily removed a NPC from DDA because her quest tree was broken. Naturally, mods went insane because that character happened to be a brown Muslim woman. I'm curious how they react if you release that mod.
We really need an Islamic fundamentalist faction badly.
Yeah I have been trying it with mixed results. The redesigned (removed?) temperature simulation doesn't seem to have significantly reduced lag, but it sure has made your first minute in game a painful experience (you instantly get frostbitten and lose a bar off of each of you limbs until the temperature normalizes, not sure what that's about.)
A year or two ago someone made a fork focused on re-adding Lua support and improving NPCs. It also deleted a few of the refugee center NPCs and removed a few books, which led to the dev instantly getting banned from the DDA reddit and labeled a racist. Touching any of Erk's OCs is not allowed.
It's deemed too little gain for too much annoyance. Korg's hyper-autistic stomach contents system has had a very very rough history, with 5 years of growing pains that spawned systems like weariness and cardio to get it into a playable state. BN just cuts out the digestion part and makes eaten food instantly turn into calories.
This is a very bizarre issue that I'm not able to replicate, even when stripping naked. Is this only in specific starting scenarios? Additionally, what's your world's initial day and season length set to?
Definitely agree. I can understand how it could affect performance but at the very least faking it by making deep-frozen or even frozen labs have frozen-solid zombie statues instead of actual zombie enemies would be cool.
Weariness was cool, I've never heard about cardio but the last version of cdda I played was a 2021 or 2022 build. I liked the delay, and the way you could trick your character into feeling less hungry by eating cardboard and such.
So far as I know (unless I accidentally changed something) I used the defaults. It was very bizarre, had a string of normal lab playthroughs (that I wound up resetting due to dead ends) and then afterwards a string of consistently frozen playthroughs (that required quick reset.) It was unnaturally cold, instant devastating frostbite. I might try creating another world, maybe something is just internally wrong with the world data? Frustrating.
Just gonna tap into my necromancy powers to revive this thread briefly so I can say, well fucking said. DDA used to be great, when they removed LUA it was the start of the shitstorm to come. There was a fork called Delta I was looking forward to for a while now (development is slow but the promise is there, they're making tools that'll make dialogue and other things straight forward rather than fucking with json files for ages, among other QOL features they have planed, but development is borderline dead), only reason I heard of it was because when the dev made a post showing it off everyone jumped down this guy's throat. He wanted to remove the massive amount of bloat in the game so he first started with the Refugee Center. As he removed an NPC he accidentally removed an item connected to that NPC (another NPC he removed was that bisexual NPC in the bathroom) and uh...went as well as you'd expect. Instant ban (was unbanned eventually), Delta discussion is banned (for a time), fork was memory holed, only mention it ever got was on this 2ch. Dev is too based for this world anyway, dev liked 3D printed guns, wouldn't have fit in with this faggots.
Funny, that's my latest one. Started off as a helicopter pilot, stole as Osprey, and fucked right off. Ran out of fuel and crash landed in the middle of a field like those randomly generated crashes.
Kek. Also, it's funny how the only criticism I see of BN is CDDA fans seeing the github and laughing when they see something removed, usually going "I thought this fork was made because CDDA removed things, now this fork is too!" like it's some sort of own.
That's why I just play Bright Nights at this point. Just a simple, easy counter in the sidebar to tell you when you're about to starve to death.
Judo, nothing funnier than flipping a Hulk to death.
