Utopia/Dominion/Kings of Chaos...

[SSSX]

Does anyone know of a open source or a free place I could get an engine for one of these games? I have searched sourceforge but it seems that they never got any where near completed.

This is a very complicated script to write. It requires untold amount of time and in the end will be profitable to the user. No One in their right mind would release such a thing.

 

[SSSX]

ok, how about a cheap one?

Isn't Utopia coded in PHP?

[edit] If we're talking the same Utopia I'm talking about, it's coded in Perl apparently.

I know, Utopia is in coded in perl, however, dominion and kings of chaos are 100% php and I believe they all use cron to update hourly.

 

[spec]

well if you mean updating turns, when I co-wrote a simular script we didnt use Cron at all.

 

[SSSX]

So you have one of those scripts? Did you release it or anything?

 

[spec]

naw it died halfway thru the production, and I would never release it.

WOW, Big Suprise, you must be really liked in school. Your not a big fan of the GNU i'm guessing...

 

[spec]

accually I was, but what does that have to do with anything.
I have a moto. I do alot of non-profit work for people who wont profit from it. If you are going to make money off my hard work then you gotta give me money. We live in a capitalistic society.

freeloaders...
