Food water and sleep are your personal needs... I think mercenaries(if turned on) make human mercs need water/food & sleep, too. No mercs in yet as far as I can tell.

Well now that makes sense anyway.

If I am running the virtual box emulator, how do I install mods?

[HailFire]

I get the distinct feeling the emulator isn't updating correctly; the MoTD points me to the Tutorial option on the main menu to start either the tutorial or defense mode, but selecting it runs the tutorial automatically. Also, chargen still lists disadvantages as costing negative points.

That sounds like it didn't rebuild cleanly. Assuming your emulator is a Linux of some kind you'll want to run 'make clean && make' from the source code directory to force a full rebuild of it.

I'm not sure how to do that, being totally unfamiliar with Linux; I'm using Oracle VM Virtualbox with the specialized Cataclysm build, so updating is usually just './delete', './update', './run'

[Shades]

Ahh, well I'm not sure how that version is working. You could type 'cat update' to see how it updates (as that would have to go into the source directory at some point and will probably just be a list of commands like a .bat file)
Can't really help beyond that though.

Well herp a derp. Issue fixed; I forgot to ./compile the update.

4. In the terminal, type "sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude install g++", minus the quotes. This should install the required software to compile the game.

11. Type "make" into the terminal to compile. If that fails, try "make clean".

Everything but step 4 (and conversely step 11) work for me.  I get a error and I'm not sure why.  Any help?



I can't compile unless this installs!

Try using sudo apt-get install g++ instead of sudo aptitude

Quick patch to address some bugs from the recent update.

Clean build required.  Saves are NOT obsolete.

Windows executable: http://whalesdev.com/cataclysm.zip
Linux executable: http://whalesdev.com/cataclysm.tar.bz2

Features:

• If keymap.txt does not exist, it is created with some hard-coded defaults.  This way, you can restore defaults by simply deleting keymap.txt.
• Keymapping is now smart about directional keys.  They work everywhere, and the number keys are no longer hard-mapped to vikeys.  You can use vikeys as movement and numbers as commands, and vice versa.  You can use wasd as movement keys, and they'll work when using a lighter or setting a trap.
• Wild mansions appear!

Tweaks:

• The turret can no longer be moved around during Defense mode.
• Electronics manuals in electronics stores
• Manhacks are much cheaper.

Bugfixes:
(Special thanks to creidieki for finding/fixing half of these)

• Integrated Toolset bionic is used properly in construction.
• Canceling on the Character Creation screen for a Defense game will return you to the main menu properly.
• Fixed an extremely minor memory leak.
• Added Help and Re-Assign Inventory Letter to keymap
• Fixed a couple bugs with inventory letter assignment
• Some fixes around monster deaths.
• Many typo fixes
• Thrown items never deal less than 0 damage
• Tiles directly north of the player are properly checked for items during crafting/construction
• Mansion tiles with four small rooms have doors leading to those rooms
• Certain rare, small mansion rooms are now bathrooms
• Crash-inducing melee bug removed.
• Secubots can now shoot at you properly.  And will do so a lot.
• The "earns" messages in player creation work properly

Just noticed, no save function in Defense mode so we can't continue on a prolonged siege.

And I was doing so well against the hordes of annoying triffids in melee! Then the Queen came and ruined my architecture in the Hospital. Jungle warfare time.
