I 100% want to make this open source, no worries, I just want a bit more time, as I'm well aware that open sourcing it will open the floor gates. I would also be interested in how this can be transferred over to the faf team as well. I do believe this has real merit to replace the base engine. it already demonstrates a large amount of the game working, and absolutely has the nuts and bolts to go all the way.

You can transfer the repository to the FAForever project and still remain the repo admin. It could also be a private repository if you are worried about cheats etc.

I suggest you contact us in our https://faforever.zulipchat.com, so we can discuss options.

Well I ususally say pics or didn't happen. But in this case I'd rather say code or didn't happen

I ran it yesterday on linux with latest FAF game files.

Does your engine run the lua code for the game patch?

For further explanation: the game doesn't have a concept of mod versions. This ever new version needs to have a different uid, otherwise it could not pick an old mod version for replays while keeping the new version for playing.

Just yesterday there was a post about a whole engine replacement built with rust, have a look around

Giebmasse

Impressive, curious for more!

Brutus5000

No. As long as we do not separate account names and display names this is not possible.

Giebmasse

More curious about simulation and netcode
Still interesting.

Rewrite = compatibility to all existing lua game code? And also map, mod, textures and model compatibility?

Also Repo url or didn't happen!
