I compiled a list of easy tasks that need doing:

> Cataclysm-DDA - Cataclysm - Dark Days Ahead. A turn-based survival game set in a post-apocalyptic world.

Mostly json stuff, no compilation required.

“Lint was the name originally given to a particular program that flagged some suspicious and non-portable constructs (likely to be bugs) in C language source code. The term is now applied generically to tools that flag suspicious usage in software written in any computer language.”

I might check some of that stuff!

Edit: I added some stuff to the npc talk tags, though it isn’t much. It’s quite hard to come up with stuff with the system. I think i added quite a chunk to the “Sleep”, “Thirsty”, “Hungry”, “Unaffiliated”, “Move out of the way” and then added some small things here and there, like greetings and others. I hope there are at least fewer insults per minute with what i added, though.  
There should be no syntax errors, but i didn’t try it ingame.

I hope someone else picks it up as i don’t believe is enough to even try to add it.
