a 200MB binary (literally) build for #cataclysmdda Bright Nights,
that unstripped, the stripped one, 48MB.

But yes, everything it's right in the #C++ world.

That game remade in #Golang would be the best thing
ever.

Tanto Cataclysm-DDA y Space Station 14 usan documentos de texto plano para almacenar mapas que pesan ~10mb.. y puede llegar 1 GB en CDDA, si como loco ese dia raideando zombies de ciudad en ciudad...

En serio alguien se va poner a editar 10mb o 1Gb con el notepad.exe? no lo veo practico. No para el runtime, alarga el procesamiento con la CPU de pasar texto humano a las representaciones binarias internas mas agiles, y despues el proceso inverso la serializacion, por que no todo vas a poner en la memoria.

En SS14 hardcodean binarios en base64, ¿que onda? [captura del SS14] Te crees que voy a poder editar el base64?

Y en CDDA usa json para guardar el mapa, el consumo de espacio se les fue de las manos decidieron zipearlo, pasarlo de texto a binario, ¿pero no querias binario? ¿ahora lo zipeas? (igual ya saben que nadie se lee)

Un atentado terrorista contra la eficiencia del CPU. Denis Richie los espera en el infierno y les tira una PDP-7...

Started a new updated game of Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead last night. I'm a pacifist nun who fled to my friend Liam's cabin.

Another friend went crazy and tried to kill Liam just as I was getting there, so Liam shot him. I dragged his corpse outside and held as much of a funeral as the game allowed (I read the Bible next to his corpse).

I now have a hammer and a makeshift sling. So far not a whiff of zombies.

Well, I wanted to remind myself how to play Cataclysm DDA after… 5+ years of not playing it? I guess I am kinda rusty in this game after that time 

well, I know that CTLG is not a DDA, but… most people talk about DDA all the time… For a long time I thought it's the only Cataclysm, but just recently found out about the difference, and I love what CTLG is offering.

I had no idea that zombie deers exists now.
Neither I had idea about feral humans.
Well, I guess I am one of them now.

Played Cataclysmdda for the first time in a while.

Secret agent helicopter start. Decided to make towards the helicopter base as it seemed like a cool potential base.

Found an RV along the way as well as a military road block where I picked up a trusty M4A1 and ammunition.

Eventually got to the Helicopter Base, and leeroy Jenkinsed into the zeds... by which I mean I rammed half of them with my RV and then shot the remainder. Also got some night vision goggles but they chew through batteries almost impossibly fast.

All in all a great first day to the cataclysm.

Damn look at this four street town with no connection to anything else at all. Kind of like the start of a smalltown horror movie. But it is the cataclysm I guess.

I'm playing #CDDA again and enjoying the chaotic nature of early game roguelike before the grind sets in. This is a #YASD (yet another stupid death) because I was going too fast and wrapped my character around a tree.

It's only fitting that I make my characters last dying breath: SPEEEEEED.
