[Whales]

Thought I'd ask you Whales, before I go posting it on a board I frequent, if your okay with this game getting some more attention. I don't want to spread your attention too thin among the boards and I'm pretty sure you weren't planning for the game to get exposure so soon.

Post away, just send me a link!  Though I don't expect any boards to be quite as enthusiastic and helpful as you guys; exactly the userbase I was hoping for.

Oh god, TRIFFIDS! Man I love you.

Heh, I can't resist throwing in references to some of my favorite post-apoc media.  Or, you know, lifting monsters from them wholesale.

Whales, when you upload the source code, do you also upload to Eronarn's server? Or do you have to wait for the owner to upload.

I have to wait for Eronarn to download my updates and compile them in.  I bugged him about it earlier tonight; hopefully it'll happen soon.

Also trying out your newly uploaded source code, I get this after character creation:

DEBUG: Could not open npc first names list (NAMES_MALE)

DEBUG: Could not open npc first names list (NAMES_FEMALE)

And it keeps on looping between those 2 messages.

Do you have the "data" directory, with the NAMES_MALE and NAMES_FEMALE files in it?  Does the user running cataclysm have read access to the data directory?

[justinlee999]

I kinda just ran the version before that and just compiled this and ran this almost after I'm done with the previous version, so I'm pretty sure the user has read access at least.

And yes, I have those 2 files.

Well I'm not going to lie, I don't know how this website will take it since It's not based around Roguelikes OR ASCII games, I figure the reception will most likely be bad, or there won't be much at all, I figure I'd give it a try anyway.

I'm still mulling it over, I might poke through search and see how similar games were received before I make any kind of post. (and probably play through a couple more characters so I can grasp the game more than I do now.)

EDIT: Bah, stupid misunderstanding.

[Infuriated]

What? Look at the previous pages, this IS a Roguelike. We generally are friendly to pretty much anyone developing a game, Facepunch on the other hand...

What? I was talking about the forum I was thinking about posting Cataclysm on, the forum in question isn't centered around Roguelikes or ASCII games so I'm not sure if they'll receive it well or not.

Is it intended?

Is it intended?

Did you fast travel? Because when you fast travel to a location I believe that sometimes you can get stuck in walls.

[Kicior]

No, I went down to a basement, turned the flashlight on and... There are no stairs up.

[Bdthemag]

No, I went down to a basement, turned the flashlight on and... There are no stairs up.

Its a trap!

[Kicior]

So how to fast travel?

[Bdthemag]

So how to fast travel?

Pffft, if I had to find it out myself then you should. Oh and I think its taken out in the latest version.

That just shows the map, YOU KNOW NOTHING.

Kicior your clearance level is not high enough for any information relating to that.
