Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead

[Tri-Tachyon'sClown]

Some autistic RPG 1-6 hour summative nigger lore dump and CDDA Something Awful LP jewtuber called Wurm Girl had trouble with the CDDA codebase refusing to merge their acid splash damage calculation changes based on coverage percent. They made a fork.

Oh I remember Wurm Girl. I didn't mind their content, how few I saw of it, but something always struck me as "off" with her.

I'm not familiar with CDDA enough to know if these changes are objectively great, really retarded, or down to a matter of subjective tastes.

CDDA has been shitting and pissing itself for a long time now, any fork is at least a sign that people are tired of their bullshit enough to break away from it, the grappling and throwing mechanic this fork offers being enough to convince me to at least try it.
Old lore returning it great, the Exodii shit was jarring so I'm glad that's removed, I mean fuck they even broke the Hub 01 quests if you take that one quest from that Exodii, bionics returning to labs makes sense because it was only removed because of the DDA dev's "anti-fun" stance.
Portal Storms were ass since they were in that strange middle ground of being absolutely game ending for no reason with nothing you can do, or just another excuse to stay in your base and work on things.
The mutagen changes from DDA I actually digged a bit considering how powerful you can be and now it actually required more steps to becoming an overpowered mutant freak, but removing "ready-made" mutagen was also silly since why wouldn't there be in the labs? Shame there's no middle ground of having a vault for ready-made mutagen but also various primers scattered about.
It looks like, by the ending, she made vehicles better at killing? Was vague but that's what I got from it.
BN will always be the GOAT but we really need more fresh takes on Cataclysm rather than having to rely on one actually developed fork and several dead ones. This "new" one looks to have been in the works for years so this is just an advertisement.

Great news: The dude who keeps removing shit is actually adding something instead!
Add pronoun/pride pins #79572

For context, the justification for ripping out bits and pieces is "erm, it's just not realistic"

Holy fuck i'm glad I haven't played that game for a while. There were zero faggot zombies last time I played.

I wonder if they left the shit in I added to the game. I made that shit as autistic and realistic as possible but I was still kind of surprised when they accepted the PR and actually saw the shit in the game a few months later. They all seem like autistic and unpleasant people.

Take the BN pill, or maybe try this new fork. Would not be surprised if the new fork has similar faggotry though.

What did you add? I could check real quick. If you don't feel comfortable sharing publicly since there might be "stalker children" lurking here you can DM me.

Read further back in the thread, they are...yeah they suck.

I didn't really like BN very much. But it was pretty lacking when I last tried it.

I don't have anything personal on github so it doesn't really matter. A bunch of candy related stuff. Gelatin from bones and some recipes for different candies and a better recipe for Jello. Packs of gelatin in found in kitchens and a bunch of shit like that. It was a while ago now I can't remember everything.

Speaking of mutations; anyone got any suggestions on which Threshold I should try and go for next? Already ran Lupine, Feline, Avian, Fish, Mouse, and Arcana's Dragonblood, anyone got any suggestion for a particularly fun one next?

Chimera with genetic downward spiral, never know what you're going to get and when so you have to prepare for when you can't use your car but can throw them at people.

So, apparently the Cataclysm: Bright Nights fork is getting DMCA'd by the DDA team: found this on Reddit while scrolling earlier. Apparently, the DDA team is also taking some shots at other forks as well, apparently because of "licensing issues" or some crap. Anyone got any more information?

What the fuck are they doing now? The only DMCA related thing I heard of before was this:

So I found something rather interesting:

Now they're going balls deep in copyright all of a sudden? On an open source game? That's not even theirs? Glad I stopped playing DDA a long time ago. According to ChaosVolt they've been gunning for BN over minor things for a while now...

Probably because BN's more fun and not bogged down by a bunch of shitty devs making retarded decisions; you know how it is with trannies. They have to ruin everything in any way; if they can't infect it with constant troonery, then they have to tear it down, and expect them to whine about how they're being "oppressed" because reality itself doesn't cater to their fucked up ways.

Like what happened with the Delta Fork I mentioned a while ago. Best part was the shit the faggots were whining about that was removed wasn't intentional, but the outrage afterwards sure as shit made it permanent, along with his scorn.

Makes me wonder if some tranny's ever decided to make a Manhunt mod for the game; for those that don't know, Manhunt's a novel made by a tranny, for trannies, about a group of troons that wander post-apocalyptic America for the sake of murdering biological women and eating zombie dicks, all the while constantly covered in dried bodily fluids and constantly described in graphic detail. No, I'm not joking in the slightest, there's a review of it here, and the way the fags are running DDA and trying to ruin the forks makes me think that they're wanting to turn the game into that piece of crap.

Naturally any attempt to make a mod to reflect actual realism (e.g. in a post-apocalyptic setting, LGBTBBQ+ are kill-on-sight) and/or that added mechanics to hunt down such demographics deliberately to kill them off would be called "hate speech" and reviled from on high.

Almost makes me want to spin up a fork to do just that. From the original code though, not the DDA stuff, since the faggots seem keen to DMCA anything adjacent to it now.

Yeah, given how trannies tend to portray themselves, I could see the loons being rather reviled in any post-collapse situation. Not even accounting for the open hatred of biological women and insane hatred of life that their little novel admits to them having, trannies would be a massive liability in any situation; they have to constantly take bathtub hormones, they constantly refuse to bathe and subsequently smell like shit, they demand everything contort to their whims constantly...

That's not even getting into the fact that they're a biological dead end.

Might as well just make a new game at this point; knowing the fags, they're going to try to take the code for themselves. They can't risk people actually having fun; their entirely ideology is about forcing everyone to be miserable.

The resulting seething will certainly be funny.

For years I used to consider CDDA to be my absolute most favourite bideogaem ever, back when I most actively played it in ~2011(original at first, DDA later)-2014 and then a bit more in 2016-17. As in, I thought "if I only had to have one game for the rest of it, it'd be this one".
Looking at how it's been treated feels like being forced to watch your beloved get raped in front of you. I'm unable to describe the mixture of feelings I'm feeling at the moment, but there's definitely an apt amount of torturous intent. As in, I look at the fat fuckface that is kevin granade and my first involuntary mental imagery is my thumbs deep inside his eye sockets. You know, basic bitch human reaction. It'll pass, I want to be better than human. Simple human torture will not suffice.
It's funny how much I used to love cata and dorf fortress at the end of highschool, praising them to all fuck, just to end up not even wanting to think about them and having nothing but disgust for the people responsible for shitting it all up (eat shit Tarn Adams, may you and your brother troon the fuck out before we begin).

By the way I never even tried the mobile base approach because it felt preemptively soulless compared to my usual playthrough being carried by the same motorcycle I kept re-making from scratch on whichever character and cheekily naming it "Night Mare" evry tiem, like an everlasting constant. It was incredibly autistic but also incredibly cozy. No regrets.

ebit: if you use anything but ASCII you're gay

(eat shit Tarn Adams, may you and your brother troon the fuck out before we begin).

Mentioned this somewhere else, but from what I could gather from various sources (inside and out) it was mostly the publishers forcing them to put in fag shit and made them go "oh we love it, we always planned to include it" and whatnot. You do some research on the publisher and God damn do you want them to go bankrupt.

Zomboid but even troonier.

If that's even possible given the state I've seen their community last I checked.

Well, I just picked up this game a week or two ago, and can say with confidence that Wurm "Girl"'s mod has about or at least 85% less faggotry than the main. No fag flags to be seen in between getting my shit pushed around while trying to get some motherfucking metal to make a goddamned hammer why does every car have a fucking mosh pit around it
In fact, a lot of flavor items got genericized from the look of things, like books and decorative accessories. The only "patterned" flag is the Stars and Bars now, and most novels are just "action novel" or "classical poetry" and stuff. I recall seeing something in the changelog about "these details don't need to be here, let the player fill in the blanks and make their own story" or something along those lines. Now, granted, I dunno if a prolapse-tier survival fork is the best place for a new player to start, but it only infuriates me on a mechanical level, not a personal one, so it's worth a genuine try.
