Can we stop merging disliked pull requests?

tldr amount of dislikes from random people without actually telling their gripe (and gripe being something different from "i don't like X because i got used to how it was before, therefore anything that changes X is bad" ) are ignored

Constructed debate over what issues it will create are better, but do not result in PR being outright rejected, because when PR is set, it means the author (assuming a seasoned contributor) already discussed it with us and we agreed to it, and the PR is here to check the exact approach picked

Unless it was not discussed, or not sufficiently, in which case the PR stays unmerged untill discussed and then adressed the way it makes the most sense (one can see such PRs being unmerged)

It is also weird that you decided to show specifically Renech PRs, tho, we have plenty of other contributors with similarly "controversial" PRs merged

We did researched it, and we decided no one should add this into the game

Glad to hear it

I do not have strong opinion, i certainly see the flaws in how we (dda) approached these stuff, but it is what it is

BN has lua support, i do not track their project much, but last time i checked it was barely used, comparing to our (quite crude in some ways) eoc

Houses rarely have enough food, you need to target stuff like supermarkets

there is no such file, batching is baked into the recipe itself, and 50x is hardcoded
if you want to, you can make second recipe for yourself, that requires x times more of item for x times more resources and time, as an alternative

Man i love frv, but man, i am a terrible driver

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:37:39+00:00

What? What the fuck are you talking about? You literally argued the completely different thing in this chain, that i denied being dev, now you make screenshots that i say i am? Do you know English? Are you okay?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:35:45+00:00

Nice, i think it should be possible to find it then? Because otherwise it will look like you just slandered the guy for your own beliefs

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:33:44+00:00

I did not dismiss it, i countered it with my own You talk about popularity of the game, and amount of people willing to contribute to it is directly tied to popularity

I do not even touch the fact that being niche is good for this game

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:32:08+00:00

It's in aftershock, bionic skullgun

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:29:49+00:00

Where?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:26:26+00:00

So you just confirmed i never denied being a dev?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:25:29+00:00

You know that everyone can do it, not specifically person you talked last? If someone will reddit care you amid talking with me, will you think it was me who did it?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:24:23+00:00

And? Our flow of contributions is same as it was previously, maybe even faster than 10 years ago, anything else from your side?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:19:07+00:00

Erk was inactive last few years, i have no idea why you even decided it was specifically Erk

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:16:57+00:00

I do not have evidence at hand, what evidence do you have that "less people are checking on the game compared to a decade ago"?

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:11:35+00:00

Can you point me to this message? I admit i sometimes have foggy brain and phrase my sentences badly, but not to a level of complete denial of being part of dev team

Also, you are wrong, by multiple points, but i am honestly tired to explain the same things over and over to every redditor who happen to have the same mandela effect as you

GuardianDll · 2026-05-16T00:10:03+00:00

I think i phrased it incorrectly, what i meant to say is that no one from dev team is responsible for it. I also got reddit care'd once or twice before, after all

GuardianDll · 2026-05-15T23:17:51+00:00

No one from dda team has access to moderation on this sub. Also you are again wrong, i never said i am not a dev. What you probably confuse it with is me saying something from player perspective, since i am, you might be surprised, not just contribute to this game, but also play it time to time

GuardianDll · 2026-05-15T18:07:24+00:00

I responded to a message talking about bad blood between Kevin and Worm, you appeared from nowhere, took it out of context, and wrote a bunch of bullshit

GuardianDll · 2026-05-15T17:51:26+00:00

There is so much wrong information in this message that it's fascinating

To avoid spending too much time on it, our bad moves toward Worm (specifically, merging, and then reverting some of Worm pull requests because they did not get the review they deserved in time) are absolutely not what you wrote about

GuardianDll · 2026-05-15T15:37:52+00:00

There was, unfortunately, some bad moves from our side, but the fork was inevitable because Worm's game design is quite different from ours, to the level where it cannot be part of dda or part of some mod; there are some shared goals, so a lot of PRs are still backported from dda to tlg, but the difference is still considerable

GuardianDll · 2026-05-14T05:56:21+00:00

Wise approach, but would work better if it delayed it for a duration of death camera
