So, I decided to give Visual Studio 2012's dependency analyzer a try. Gave it the simple task of analyzing all the things in FSO's code.lib.

I did not receive clarity. What I did receive, however, was a glimpse at the shape of Codethulhu (forever closed be his braces).

I wanted to lvlshot this, but decided against it. There's no reason to destroy the sanity of people who are just passing by. However, if you think you posess the mental fortitude necessary, here's a link:

You guys weren't kidding when you use the adjective "spaghetti."

[Rodo]

That's so frikking messed up.

Viewing the image and resizing it several times actually managed to completely freeze my computer.

Apparently it is dangerous to even glimpse the shape of Codethulu.

Well it doesn't look so bad from afar. Lets zoom in and... OH GOD!!! 

The blob in the middle... you can't even distinguish which link goes where.

Apparently just processing Codethulu has traumatised my computer as chrome just loads a blank white image and Gimp locks up and even now it is running slower than it should 

[pecenipicek]

Oh sweet jesus run away!

[Oddgrim]

hah! so this is what unfiltered madness looks like.
I do not envy what you coders got to work with!

Ye gods...

Dear lord, I'm not even a coder and that looks terrifying.

Same here. Can't see a thing.

[sigtau]

Open it in Firefox or (God forbid) IE if you have it on-hand.

[z64555]

Or just wait a minute or two

[NGTM-1R]

I see the truth now! IA! IA! TAYLOR FTHAGH!

[z64555]

Hmm. I must be immune to the effects of codethulhu...

The pic is 14k * 9k pixels. Long load times are to be expected.

So, um... What does a professionally programmed piece of software (of similar size and breadth) look like? For comparison's sake.

[niffiwan]

Perhaps StarShatter would be a good comparison, with source readily available?
