OP, all I can say is
Hey, what's your problem, sir?
Narrow group of "olds" are bitching at everyone that sees that ascii is not good for 'em.
I lost my respect for "olds" after realizing, that monthly donations are SO high here, and still, narrow group is only that counts here as consumers.
I don't like attitude of "old ones" here, at last part of them.
Go focking back to your arena and ascii.
We, non-ascii mode fans are part of THAT community too, dude.
And we have right to own opinions.
You are NOT better than we are, imho, so you stfu now, Sir.
For me it is clear that current v0.31.01 release is given just for eliminating donators anger attacks(showoff that 0.31 IS real, nothing more).
It's pretty useless in long-term gameplay, so it's clear that we all may need to better, stable release.
Also - my complain - as 0.31 is beta of alpha, i tried to tell forum masters that making SUBFORUM for that damn early rel is good idea to PREVENT actual mess on forum.
I was ignored(predictable).
So, now, you will have bunch of posts made by unhappy PLAYERS everywhere.
Your choice.
msg to OP:
RTFM for mayday's, goddamit. You cannot start new game with set, actually, you need to ADD it AFTER worldgen.
For all ascii fans: ascii ended with ADOM(my no.1 game ever, btw).
