Yep, I don't think he realizes it yet, but thomasfn now has a willing and capable coding team.

I don't think anyone is working on any feature in particular at the moment, so have a look through and see if you can find something you'd be comfortable improving.
I feel as if I should open a forum or at least a wiki or something so that developers can collaborate on such matters.

The last commit was in mid-October. Is this project still being worked on?

I don't even understand what this mod does, I'm sorry but I'm confused right now. Couldn't someone explain to me so I am not confused

FTL currently doesn't have amazing mod support. This project plans to rewrite FTL from scratch to make it more flexible for mod developers.

Hi,
why you dont think about webtechnology? WebGL or canvas is easy to use and its is more easy to add JS or change CSS files for modification. It will run on any operation systems.

OK, so my games have gotten boring and with the end of a college semester on hand I've reached a dead week.
I'm installing [s]LINQPad[/s] Visual C# Studio and beginning to run FTL:Overdrive on it to figure out how what works, what needs to be completed, etc....
UPDATE: Visual C# downloaded, source code downloaded. How do I run it?
UPDATE 2: Its running! Its also a tad... lacking... but that's what I was here for eh?

Now that I've gotten it to run, I'm starting to read the code to figure out how it works.
Once I've figured it out, I'll start writing a wiki to help ease the transition for new modders who want to jump on and contribute.
So far, not much has been completed. Only three buttons on the main menu work, and the hangar is half-implemented with some parts not yet implemented and other parts inconsistent. Starting the game will only bring up a galaxy map with which you cannot interact with.
