On another topic: zombies are much much more lethal now. They seem to zero on you...

PD: ALL ZOMBIES are much faster than they used to be :O

Nah, aside from the fact that they can follow you through stairs, they haven't been changed at all.  It's funny, every other time I update someone seems to think that zombies are way harder with the new update, when they haven't been altered a bit.


And yeah, I've been intending to remove the Android trait for a while due to its startscumminess.  I'll be giving classes bionics, though.

I've started to avoid the android trait because it often means that I have to either restart till I get a nice set (which is boring) or stick with whatever I get (which is often a waste of four points)


On zombies: maybe I've had unlucky runs? The thing is that I've been making characters set around fast movement + quick, and yet zombies are having an easier time to catch up to me, and I to outrun them.

If you wanted to make zombie strength more variable, you could do what Zomband did and allow them to use randomly selected melee weapons.

A zombie swinging a pipe would be a lot more dangerous than say, one swinging a plastic bottle.

Whales, will there ever be a way to opt to have a cat instead(with a following wizard hard and quarter staff, not really but you get the reference)
Also will we ever be able to smith? Or specifically target a part of a corpse to butcher? (For example if i wanted to play like a siberian hermit, i would see squirrel brain as a delicacy)
Also, an "lone person in the world" gamemode?

Yeah, there'll be a "real" gamemode, which will be the game Cataclysm is now, and "sandbox", where most of the things will be customizable.
The starting dog will *probably* be removed later anyways.

Asking before I jump in, has anyone had any major issues with the windows version that I'd need to know about?

Nah. Pretty much every platform-related or port-related bug has been ironed out.

Mostly, yeah. The major problems were with my port, aposos' later port was much better.

FZ: Awesome, i like the idea of a sandbox mode, i meant a gamemode where there are no human NPC's, Factions etc etc.

Hmm maybe i should relearn my C and make a few mods for the game.
Something like .. Damn i forgot what i even wanted to mod in.
I cant figure out the github, where to download the source? I can only find binaries.

You can download the source at the same spot, in the Download tab.
You have the option to download it in either .tar.gz or .zip archive format.
