If anything, the weapons.tbl could be a LOT smaller. How many defunct weapon entries ARE there?


I have been able to reduce the one for my campaign to 85k, which includes 7 or 8 new entries; there is a lot of useless stuff in there. :D

By the way, it may suck as a language, whowever as a programming enviroment it is excellent for teaching good practices for fledgling programmers(logical thought processes and such).


Ugh. I have actually used COBOL and RPG II on an IBM System 36 mainframe. With old terminals. The green screen kind old enough that they actually need screen savers. Though screen saver on that system meant a screen blanker. (At least I think the second was RPG II. That's the one where you use punch card like things because stuff has to be aligned right isn't it?) I did more complex stuff with Applesoft BASIC when I was younger. And it was a lot easier. In COBOL/RPG II all we were doing was basically non-interactive programs that read data from a file, possibly preformed simple calculations/decisions, and printed the results out. Boring stuff. But then it was at school. :) I took the course 'cause I thought it might actually help in learning game programming. Boy was I wrong.
