APIs should be stable by 2026 Q1. Until a release pops up, production use is discouraged. I was being too optimistic about release. CORE is basically done. You can use that fine. MAP namespace I'm not satisfied with yet. All the rendering stuff is giving me a serious headache. Remain cautious with future updates. Personally wouldn't use this state for production, though you can certainly build something cool right now. Quick Links: - Getting Started - Setup and first steps - Your First Game - Build a working game - Cookbook - Quick API recipes - Architecture Overview - System design - Feature List - Complete feature list Note: Game data (maps, scenarios) is not included - you'll need to provide your own or use the StarterKit's template data. 2D map loaded using Europa Universalis 4 data. Why Grand strategy is notorious for being extremely complex. Even for experienced studios it's a daunting task to set everything up. It essentially has given monopoly to Paradox, with only exceptionally few coming close to their quality and scale. And for good reason. Some extreme hurdles for Paradox-like grand strategy: - Vector like graphics to scale infinitely - Create beautiful maps from simple bitmaps/pngs - Fixed-Point arithmetic & deterministic simulation - Data oriented design (not OOP) - AI, Diplomacy, Mili","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/ForgottenHistory","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/ForgottenHistory/Archon-Engine/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
