Number three is slightly harder, and is representing monster facing data to the player. Since it's ASCII we can't exactly put a dot on the zombie tile or something similar, so we need to come up with a way to easily allow players to see which way any given monster is facing at any given point in time.

Perhaps putting one of the ASCII arrows/slashes on the tile the enemy is facing?
Also, I'm very glad issues #1 and 2 are still being kept in mind, because those are real gameplay killers for me. (Still haven't picked UrW back up since a couple months after the change. )

can you turn on wander spawns after a worlds already generated?

[BigD145]

No clue. Fairly easy to test. Copy your Cata folder and edit the save.

[UristMcDwarf]

i'll check it out.

hope im not fortifying and fixing this place up for no reason

[UristMcDwarf]

OOH!

anyone who can develop, do this:

make it to where trails of gasoline will spread along the line, and if you can, add a command to dump 1 unit of liquid from a container

This would be the best thing.

Also, how much do fires actually warm you up? I'm being woken up constantly by the cold, while I'm in bed under a blanket in my little one-room cabin with a fire going on the other side of the room (6 tiles away.) You'd think that'd count for something, at least.

[Aseaheru]

A single blanket? Nowonder you are cold. Heck, I normally have my chars sleep under a pile of them and they still get cold.

Dunno about the fire.

Also, on the subject of pouring single units of whatever, what about making damaged fluid containers that have stuff in them have a chance to leak some of their contents each turn? I think it is already done for tanks on cars.

[Akura]

As far as I know, small fires(4) will only warm you up if you're right next to them. Raging fires and infernos radiate a bit further, but not as far as six tiles - and you probably wouldn't want one in your house anyway.

I'm more interested in whether we'll ever be able to "sneak".

I'd like sneaking. I still can't figure out how loud sounds are supposed to be. I walk at 6 sound, and nothing notices even a few tiles away in the dark. My motorcycle makes 9-15 sound at lowest speed, and every zombie in America homes in on it.

wish the experimental wouldn't crash so much
anyone got this problem?

Nnnnnnope.

ASCII works beautifully 999 time out of 1000.

Wait a day and download again. copy save over, and it's incredibly likely the issue is fixed.

[TheBronzePickle]

Why a day? There's new builds every few hours, usually.

[BigD145]

The current build has only one commit and that commit is the only one for all day today.

I just tend to assume bugfixes aren't magic or instant.

[Akura]

The current build I'm playing(about two weeks old) has skeletons and skeledogs dropping fresh meat and stomachs when butchered, and no bones(tainted or otherwise).
