Game dev rambling
@beardalaxy You could try OpenMW which is an open-source replacement engine for Morrowind. It comes with OpenMW CS which allows you to create mods or even new games with it. And since OpenMW is open-source you can publish them as standalone games.
@Aldo2 Panhandle harder.

I still see gumball machines.
@Suiseiseki @beardalaxy This has nothing to do with software.
@beardalaxy I'm talking about dumpsters behind stores. Stores throw away food that doesn't meet their standards and that's where freegans get their food.

Never used it or heard of it until now, but seeing footage from it, it reminds me of the adventure editor in Spore: Galactic Adventures, which from what I've heard was inspired by Video Game Tycoon.
There is a good reason why you don't see engines like this for professionals. Event trigger systems are very limited compared to actual programming. This prevents you from actually making your game unique, like having a Paper Mario-style combat system or replacing the turn-base combat with a fighting game style combat system.

>If GNU didn't exist, Linux could not have been written
I didn't say that if GNU didn't exist. I said if GNU/Hurd was usable back then. Linus had goals of his own. He may have been inspired by GNU but he didn't intend to create a kernel for them.
@Suiseiseki @PurpCat @beardalaxy @sun I know, but both Linus and RMS had intentions of creating their own OSes.
I could see an alternate timeline where the GNU/Hurd was actually completed and Linux ended up being some minimalist Unix-like operating system unrelated to GNU.
@beardalaxy They also think that "Green Vegan Anarchism" is the only alternative to the two-party system.
Young men are correctly recognizing that conservatives have completely failed to conserve that worth conserving.
@wowaname Someone probably brought a bunch of a horses as a senior prank once.
@PurpCat @beardalaxy @sun I feel like things would've been different if GNU or Linux were complete OSes with everything developed in house instead of just being a userland and a kernel respectively and distro maintainers just duct-taping different programs with different philosophies on top of it.
