Iโve been waiting for the system shock remake to get done, because I fear that I canโt deal with the outdated graphics and controls (which might be really clunky by modern standards).

For the graphics, I guess itโs about preference. As for the controls, wellโฆ depends on the version.
When you buy SS: Enhanced Edition on Steam, you get two versions (EE and Classic Edition).
The Classic Edition is the one that people donโt play much because it really only uses the mouse for everything IIRC. However, someone made a mod for mouse-look, which makes it easier to play. Quite a while later, some devs decided to improve the game by making the Enhanced Edition, which naturally includes mouse-look and binds.
It can be confusing to play at first if you donโt know the keys, but once you know them you will get used to it.
I made a guide about changing the binds to make them more intuitive to modern players on Steam.
Not me. Long live Hoomans! For democracy!

Do you want a malcompliance verdict?
Want a Sprite Cranberry?
drinks Sprite Cranberry, throws can on floor
Pick up that can!
Nope.
Takes can
Runs away from the guard
Goes downstairs and waits for the guard
The guards arrives, the player avoids him and goes upstairs
Due to the old Source engine physics, the player prevents the guard from opening the door by blocking it with the Sprite Cranberry can.
The guard is now forever stuck in the room.

Where do you see all the topics you muted?
I havenโt got a clue as to where you might see that other than your profile. Probably googling โdiscourse list of muted topicsโ might turn up something relevant.
Why would someone want to mute a topic?
If they donโt want to get notified by e-mail, for instance. Or if they turn out to be my victim of serial liking.

Iโm currently increasing my artificial post count in Team Fortress 2 (grinding for the โKill 1 million robotsโ achievement), then Iโm done with the game.
So I made simple program to look at some of the memory of my computer:
int main()
{
const int bytesToSee;
int byte[bytesToSee];
for (int X = 0; X < bytesToSee; X++){
std::cout << &byte[X] << " == " << byte[X] << '\n';
}
return 0;
}
and, TIL, memory is extraordinarily empty.
There is a near 100% chance that you are using an operating system that uses virtual memory.
As such the memory your program has access to is not physical RAM, instead it is a mapping specifically setup by the OS. So your program can only see the memory the OS has given it access to it, and that process all of the time includes clearing out the memory so that programs canโt snoop on each otherโs data. There are specific operating system functions which allow you to access the raw physical memory, but thatโs usually limited to processes running with high privileges, otherwise any old process could easily crash the whole operating system.

Eh, computer science.
Anyway, Iโm starting to learn how to create a gamemode for gmod and omg, Lua is so simple! I canโt imagine a more simple language.
Please donโt post pointless replies in old threads.
Threads are kept open so that the discussion can resume in the future if someone has something good to add.
That means I can add to that โhunting in a packโ thread from one year ago and get feedback?

yes, as long as it adds to the conversation.

Necro-posting is allowed as long as it is relevant and the poster understands that the contributors to the thread before may no longer be around to reply and the interest may have dissipated.
So yeah as TeaKing said, thereโs nothing wrong with necro-posting around here as long as youโre on topic. So donโt be afraid to post something on a thread that interests you. Who knows you might just revive interest in the topic.
