I've released a new version of Darklands.
You can find it on the official website at
https://darklands.cx
The main focus was to get it to compile with the newest version of FPC.
Real mode DOS mode was dropped, but DPMI is still available, meaning 32bit+. Multinode should now work okay. At the very least its now possible to see other players, but there aren't any ways to interact.
The ANSI art should display nicely in Linux terminal or over SSH.
Bunch of bug fixes, run time error fixes, etc.
I tested things over multiple Dosbox instances. However, I don't have a Linux way to test it as I've never setup a Linux native BBS.
Yes I did use AI for this, the code base was terrible. I had many stop and go moments over the years on sprucing things up, but the mess just kept sapping my motivation. submitted by /u/Nuitari8 [link] [comments]
