doubt Toady would throw it away, i mean, why discard such perfectly good code, especially since he seems to feel that it handles the graphics better than his original graphics code did.
I'm sure he wouldn't throw it away. It's just that most other people would be celebrating a release, and I'd still be waiting - the new graphics code really is that much of an improvement for me.
For me as well. I'd probably still try it, but I don't know that I'd play it much, having to go back to that efficiency level.

OK, so Toady's onto the Hydra Test.

I'm recklessly optimistic in thinking this means he's gotten through the debugging stage. Reckless, and probably incorrect.

But I hope, every morning, to wake up to the words "NEW VERSION AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD" on the front page.

And one morning I will not hope in vain.

Does any body think the sight will crash on release day?

Anyways, I think the world gen doesn't make the assumption that climate works the same in a gen'd world as it does in the real world. Otherwise we'd end up with most seeds having the polar regions at the ends of the map...which we don't.

I asked about this. It drops a square window onto a spherical world. Thats why you only get (near) one pole, and the edges don't wrap.

Anyways, Toady better have a torch (that is, a fire on the end of a stick, not a flashlight for you brits) handy to cauterize the Hydra necks.

Yeah, that's pretty incorrect.  The end is in sight but it's not that close.
