Thanks. Unfortunately I already attempted the obvious fix for the white border and it didn't work. Actually, I just remembered that there is something you can do to help figure out the key-repeat problem: run custom.exe (with gfx_sdl) with the --input-debug commandline flag, and then post c_debug.tx...

Only possible by scripting it.
That would be a nice menu bit to have.
OK, I implemented it. Get it in nightlies soon. Dang, half an hour for a bit.

You're talking about key repeat? This difference would be due to the switch from gfx_directx to gfx_sdl in Custom. The possible workarounds are either to pass the --no-native-kbd commandline flag to custom.exe, or switch to gfx_directx (no window resizing). To pass the flag, either create a shortcut...

No, except for autoset tags (like "hero in party"), which you can see in the tag browser. Tags are used so pervasively throughout the engine that unfortunately it wouldn't be easy to implement a feature like that and keep it up to date. Would definitely be useful though.

Great! I'm glad this exists for other people to build on top over. Sidescroller 101 was hugely successful in allowing other people to make side scrollers (and this is very similar). As you noticed, there's a bug in the new wallchecking commands where you can pass through a corner if you come in at e...

OK; because they looked the same I assumed Dana and Bret were the same unit type. But actually, I guess you don't have unit types/classes for player units, just enemies? I think that in good tactical RPGs, making tactical considerations (meaning, placement of characters to get certain advantages) is...

Cool! This game looks super promising, both mechanically, and for having a lot of story-telling. Is there any input already from your two friends in the current demo? Effectiveness of different magic types depending on armour is a nice touch. It makes sense. Some comments on the current demo (I got ...

When I was reading about the A* algorithm, I remember it mentioning assigning a sort of "difficulty" value to each location/tile before seeking the shortest route. Yes, we will add a way to assign differing costs to tiles. And it should be editable in the map editor. I don't think zones a...

My audio isn't working, but I watched part of the video. I noticed that at the 5 min mark you clicked to move somewhere but the hero only walked halfway. Is that the remains of your previous "landmarks" pathfinding system?

I'll definitely be nominating many more games; sorry for not giving this attention. I hope to see more people take part!

Willy, you're not meant to limit nominations to only games that haven't been already. The games that receive multiple nominations proceed to the next round!

There's only one .deb (not including Vikings and Wandering Hamster). So after you install the deb, what about the links to the OHRRPGCE in the applications menus? Do they open Callipygous, or Dwimmercrafty, or do they not exist at all? I assume that you have/had Callipygous already installed. From y...

Morpheus­Kitami: Strange, I hope that's not any kind of problem with the deb file. The mouse options (also available with F8) are still hidden because they're not totally complete, as you noticed. Mainly we need to update all of the built-in menus and battles for mouse support, which is going to be ...

Is it just me, or is the .deb package not working? It just sort of goes about like it's installing, but nothing happens. (this is on Ubuntu btw) You mean when you click on it some window comes up, but there are no useful errors or messages? I'm not really that familiar with ubuntu. Do you have a 32...

That's the highlight, it refers to these changes further down: * You can jump to the attack, enemy and textbox editors from anywhere you select an attack/enemy/box, or add a new one directly [Ralph] * In NPC placement mode you can open the NPC editor by pressing ENTER on tiles with NPCs (edit them) ...

ANDALSO and ORELSE also feel weird to me, but I'm using them more since finding out that fbc now compiles them efficiently :) Yes, and BASIC isn't the only other language to make this mistake. C originally also only had bitwise operators, & and |. Later it was realised logical && and || ...
