Corewar revival
Posted: 03 May 2016, 13:30Hi.
The last week in Vallekas (a district of Madrid (Spain)) there was a workshop about Corewar (the link is in spanish, sorry). It was great, I knew this old freak videogame, but never I have written any warrior.
Well, the "oficial" simulator in GNU/Linux is pmars, the codes is very old, has a lot of compiler warnings and another weird things.
I have put the last version of code in github and I am trying to give a new life. At the moment, only I have fixed the warnings and I have merged the another old fork pmars in SDL.
But I want to rewrite some parts of code to set more clean code, for example it has a lot of code about getting command line params instead the "getopt" functions.
Maybe in the future, I want a deb package of pmars.
It is a hard work, it is a work for several months. If somebody wants help me, I will be very glad.
Regards.
