Aetheria-Economy VS Cataclysm-DDA

The required driver script will be helpful in figuring out what it's doing. Happy spelunking!

We had a bit of a hiatus after it became clear that we'd never get a publisher deal since the game is open source, and we're now pivoting into a narrative-focused vertical slice "demo", which we're hoping we can use to grow an audience and crowdfund.

The license you purchase on the asset store to use those assets does not permit you to redistribute them. This means that you need to approach the creators individually and acquire special permission to include their asset in your repo, even if you're not relicensing it. Very few asset store devs will agree to this, I can tell you from experience.

Here's ours.

The game is open source, so if you're up to it you can check out the code for it in the meanwhile here. It's not exactly plug and play, though!

I'm using dual serialization for the heavily polymorphic data structures in my game - MessagePack with integer keys and union polymorphism for the wire format and local storage, and Json.NET with string keys and JsonKnownTypes polymorphism for debug output and long term persistence in RethinkDB. Here's what one of my simpler polymorphic data structures looks like. Lots of attributes but that's the price you pay I guess.

Our project could certainly use some more code hands on deck! There's 8 of us so far, and we're building a rogue-lite third person space shooter with a story centered around a time loop. Here's a trailer. Here's our Github (it's open source!). Here's our Discord. I'm PixelBro#3202 btw.

If you're using Unity I'd like to recommend my open source game as a potential study candidate. Here's the repo, trailer of the game and a pitch deck if you wanna know more.

By the way, Aetheria: Terminus is an open source project! You can find the code for the galaxy generation right here.

Meanwhile my whole studio is developing our (unique and amazing) game completely open source, and I'm still not worried in the slightest about IP theft. Anyone with the ability to comprehend our codebase has much better things to do than "steal" our ideas, and mechanics aren't copyrightable anyway.

And that sucks! I really wish being Huge (or Tiny, but I haven't tried that personally) felt more distinct than it does. You really shouldn't be able to operate holdout pistols, but you should be able to stuff a thanksgiving turkey in your coat pocket.

If you look in the jmath.json file (https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/blob/master/data/mods/MindOverMatter/jmath.json) under the matrix awakening odds and portal storm awakening odds, change the Return to "return": "0 * _0". That should set the odds of awakening to 100% regardless of how many paths you have.

Are you sure? I checked the initial PR and couldn't find any mention of an anvil, and I checked the current files, and also couldn't find any mention of an anvil.

There is not, but it was mentioned as a desired feature in the original PR introducing Electrokinesis so it will hopefully be added eventually.

Must be the newest experimental. Static hordes were added back to worldgen, the hordes option now only toggles dynamic hordes.

It currently works as of: https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/releases/tag/cdda-experimental-2023-12-09-0323

[default 3D field of view was reverted|https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/69940] because there were some bugs in the tests due to it

That said, I recommend Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, which offers something like this.

Each power has a different set of thresholds leading into different powers. You can check the JSON files for each class on github to see which powers lead into eachother at what level.

Yeah, I ran into a similar issue working on craftable bone spike spears. https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/57447 There is some decent research on the topic but it’s not open access which didn’t leave me with evidence to support my argument besides basically metadata. For the record I think this is reasonable, it’s just frustratingly difficult to find accessible modern research on these interesting topics
