libtcod-vcpkg-template VS steamsky

It doesn't teach on its own, but the libtcod-vcpkg-template can help with quickly setting up Vcpkg and libtcod in a cross-platform manner. Parts might need to be updated to work with C++20 or later. This template also creates Emscripten builds.

Hello all. I'm trying to get the libtcod example project to compile, but seem to be running into errors at every step. When I compile normally and run the binary, I get the error:

I've just checked, and Visual Studio can build/run the libtcod template. So if you setup a CMakeLists.txt to use Vcpkg then your project should run even without VSCode's CMake Tools plugin.

I'm working in C++17 and doing the ancient C++ tutorial on RogueBasin. I'm starting from the libtcod C++ template and plan on using the latest libtcod features rather than the older ones taught by that tutorial. My new repository is here.

Libtcod's Vcpkg template could work for your conditions. The tools it uses are cross-platform, using VSCode as the IDE rather than Visual Studio, but running CMake manually should work also.

I've made this template project, but I've since modified it so that I can use it to develop libtcod with, so right now it only uses Vcpkg to fetch the dependencies for libtcod and then builds libtcod from a submodule. This template is complete as-is and will compile and run if you follow the instructions.

I've updated the C++ template project to upload build artifacts (listed as automated-builds in any passing workflow.) It also automatically publishes builds as GitHub Releases when you push an annotated tag to the repository. I added one of the libtcod fonts too so that it's clear how to handle data assets in a project.

The GitHub releases don't include a Linux binary, you'll have to compile it yourself. The easiest way is to use the template project which is cross-platform.

And standard weekly report. In the stable version, a real standard. No new bugs found this week, still one which I can't reproduce awaits for help.

The stable version is under control if we speak about the work. At least for now. :) I found two more bugs and fixed them. There is still one issue, but I can't reproduce it. It looks like something rare happened: or the downloaded game has corrupted files, or maybe antivirus was checking one of the files. Any help there would be nice. Anyway, for now, in around 24 hours since the post, the new more stable version of the game will be available for download.

Still nothing to report in the stable version. But I have some things to check there. I also checked one old report about problems with lagging keys on Windows, and it looks good for me. If someone could check it too, and inform me about the result, it would be very nice. :)

The game is made in probably unique set of technology: it is written in Ada programming language) and uses Tk library for the graphical user interface. Its development is done mostly in Fossil version control system. The mirror of the code is also available on GitHub and GitLab.

And probably the most important information about the development version: because since last release  4 weeks has passed, time for another development release :) In around 24 hours since this post a new, shiny, buggy, development version will be available to download on GitHub, itch.io and Game Jolt.
