I played the new version that is supposed to work on vt100 type terminals. I knew it was not hot, but this thing was aweful. The screen display never once worked right. All the symbols are the wrong things, ('.' water, '+' Land. I mean it should be like ( '~' water, '.' Land, '^' mountains, '=' Swamp. etc....) Well anyways.. I am going to try adn fix the redisplay a lot more, and I like how it core dumps every say 10 minutes. Well true it is better then nothing, but I mean I expected more from the guy who wrote this, I mean would you want your name on a product like that. Well if someone else is going to redo the screen display I would rather not, really a waste of time, at the this point in time. -JJ
