Lots of items in the shop are built out of other items. You want to built towards one big item first, plus boots.

Hmm spatial awareness? Left is code right is docs and if you have any other windows they don't break that?

Have you looked at the Lisps / Scheme / Racket yet? Racket in particular makes it quite nice to go #lang blah at the top of the file and change the parsing or interpretation entirely.

For example all the documentation pages and guides are written in scribble:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/getting-started.html#%28part._first-example%29

#lang scribble/base
 
@title{On the Cookie-Eating Habits of Mice}
 
If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a
glass of milk.

And it has an entire document markup language created in it, which can output pdf or html. But you can still use @ syntax to drop in racket code to compute values. Or create templates.

I even implemented a #lang which took assembly directly (and interpreted it, it was for a class).

So if you are really after full control, you should study Lisps and their macro systems.

There is the black Mesa mod/project which revamps the graphics if that's a showstopper for you. But it's worth playing.

Careful you don't come off as a sealion.

Though this is a thread about Wayland so eh.

I want it, but I'm just using the ms ergo which has a bit of a gap, but not as much as a full split.

Thanks, you made me feel old today. Get off my lawn.

I've watched some slow typists program, and I think I have the answer. If it takes you a while to type the code out, you are much more likely to stick to the first approach that works, and not rewrite it as much.

Yeah all the bears are naked!

Thought I was looking at a whfb Empire army for a minute, that contrast. Good.

Uh you're not going to believe this, but the parents volunteered the boys.

Monaco is a fun example where stealth frequently fails and yet, you just have to scramble to do something and ruuuun. You can end up hiding and trying again but short of getting everyone killed, it's hard to get a game over. Your friends can revive you, as long as they don't get caught and killed themselves.

It's a good mechanic where it's more "let's go save Dave" then "thanks Dave now we need to restart".

No I don't know any Dave's, names have been changed to protect the guilty.
