I think most variants inherit the same old code base, because they start out as tweaks on existing interesting features of another variant. Probably future variants will inherit an old code base for...

Progress is slow because I'm doing too many things. Also I don't want to code too much in my spare time. I prefer to post when I have a working result.
I'm working on a next version of Friendband,...

What I did to increase the number of quests and casino in town is edit wild2.c lines 142, 148 and 149. Changing the last number to a low number like 2. But I can only find the city-bound quest log...

Okay then, maybe this will make coding in C a little easier. Forget embedded languages and scripting languages. How about Cello from libcello.org?
It's native C. Usage is drop-in and optional. No...

I think the C language is a barrier for new developers to try working on their ideas for a new variant. It was for me back in 2013. Maybe Lua isn't a good language either for creative feature coding,...

I've looked around in Z variants. Poschengband completely replaces Zangband 2.4, just everything is better in Poschengband. It's the "static quest" Z branch.
Zangband 2.7.5 is a different beast...

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. I wish I had played Zangband before working on this, then I would've made a few very different design choices. I'm correcting for them now.
I removed race and...

All this still has to be fun. If I didn't have fun working on my Friendband branch, it would've gone nowhere. Now it's the way I personally prefer to play Unangband when I play that, even if I...

Is that why Sangband has skills instead of classes, to make the game design less asymmetrical over time to compensate for gameplay changes presented by 4GAI?
I mean, with classes you'll have...

Well, that explains why my character wouldn't roll with the v2.7.3 on zangband.org. The version I'm using, 2.7.5 seems to have it fixed without the patch. Z+Angband 0.3.3 uses that exact patch. Still...
