[quote=“tivasyk, post:37, topic:7681”][quote=“Ahk, post:36, topic:7681”]I hunger for a release…I need this. I want to inject C:DDA into my veins. That sweet high…IT IS SO STRONG…I need this inside me

try injeting xperimental trash, it’s quite strong and let’s you live till the refined stuff is released. beware though, it’s quite… hmm, habit-forming though =D[/quote]I’m a man with the affliction of attachment, I dont dare play the Experimentals for fear of putting many hours into a chara, and then boom, game crashing bug. My tiny heart would not be able to bear it…I need a Stable Release. This is my drug[/quote]

It’s only called “stable” because it’s not updated. It typically isn’t really better than the experimentals, due to old bugs being caught later that weren’t fixed by “Stable 0.A”. I’ve never had any game-ending crashes in experimentals, but then again not many of my characters last for many hours.

I’ve had game-crashing bugs, but I make frequent backups so they aren’t game-ending.

StopSignal · 2014-11-05T14:36:46.000Z

I had many game crashing bugs but i was not using the lasty-last. Gonna try it when i finish my current play!

Can you guys put zombie door smashing back in for this release? Pretty sure Whales had that, like, four years ago lol

kevin.granade · 2014-11-06T07:56:55.000Z

Dude chill, things break, it’s part of the process. I was already working on it without the snide comments, thanks.

kevin.granade · 2014-11-09T04:35:28.000Z

FYI, zombie door bashing is fixed and improved. While I was at it I eliminated a bug where they wouldn’t team up on door bashing if they were oriented diagonally. (that’s right, they team up to bash doors)

The changelog feels impressive.

This is the g33k game, you know that?

Zaweri_Runewright · 2014-11-09T19:26:55.000Z

Well, you guys still have not noticed that .40 S&W has 2 entries in bullet pulling JSON? The other one seems like it would go for a .44 magnum bullet. I fixed this in my FMJ bullet pulling JSONs, check out the lab.

Don’t sweat it, I’ll hit this in my nightly bughunt.

Zaweri puts a PR on Github for this already, don’t worry.

Nifty PR but unmergeable ATM thanks to the new strings. (String freeze = no new text until it’s lifted!) Rivet’s fix was already up and is merged.

I am psyched about 0.B and about to get my brother into the game when it drops.

Narc · 2014-11-12T11:09:33.000Z

I don’t have mod privileges so can’t update the OP, but let’s go ahead and call the current latest build another release candidate, 0.B RC2:

Linux, Curses
Linux, Tiles
Windows, Curses
Windows, Tiles

These links will not expire until at least the actual release of 0.B, unlike the links in the OP of this thread (which already did).

Edit: Dammit, every stupid forum software that uses stupid BBCode has different handling. Use quotes in url tags, don’t use quotes. Bah.

kevin.granade · 2014-11-16T20:36:16.000Z

Unless a major new bug surfaces, release is happening TODAY, OP updated with links to latest builds.

Jarlaxle:

Damn! Just when I have a character that is starting to get a foothold in zombie apocalypse…

You can port over saves.

Will a full changelog be available? I haven’t keep keeping up to date with the recent changes for maybe a week.

AngryFrenchKanadian · 2014-11-16T22:28:41.000Z

In 0.B, are hordes and NPCs still considered to be experimental? Like, should I leave them off for now or are they good to go?

Yes to both. Folks have had pretty good results with static NPCs and they’re fairly safe to turn on, but there are enough issues with 'em that we haven’t changed the default. Random NPCs are likewise much less crash-prone, but can definitely error out and are good at looting your base and otherwise being Very Annoying.

Hordes aren’t yet ready for prime time.

AngryFrenchKanadian · 2014-11-16T23:04:02.000Z

Thanks. Also, how do the different skill rust systems work? I’m familiar with Vanilla but the other ones not much. By default it’s Int dependent? What does that entail exactly?
