Ok.. the idea is to start a new variant based on latest MAngband 0.7.3 and add some features to make it less "boring".
I'll start from Jug's source code which will allow classic/ironman servers to be compiled. Currently, the vanilla client is enough to connect to those types of servers, but since I plan to add new races, classes and client-related stuff, a new client will be required in the end.
I'll try to add those features little by little since I don't really have a lot of time for this (doing it during the free time of my free time :)).
So here it is... PWMAngband 0.0.1
Currently, the only modifications made are:
- special artifact rarities back to vanilla values (no more double out-of-depth rarity check and no more rarity multiplied by 100)
- birth stats rerolled until the base value for primary stat (choice (a) in stat order at birth) is 17 to avoid pointless waste of time suiciding chars to get better stats at start
I'll post all the changes here when they get implemented...
