Code: Overview
Getting started
Most developers probably only want to get their hands on the game-logic component.
In Nuclide we have 3 main modules supplied to the engine:
- Client
- Server
- Menu
When we build these with the fteqcc compiler, we will get three files:
- csprogs.dat
- progs.dat
- menu.dat
In the source code tree of Nuclide itself, you'll find all the core entry functions that
the engine calls in a file called entry.qc which exists in each sub-module its directory.
However, you probably don't want to modify the Nuclide ./src/... tree directly (unless you got a good reason) and want to focus on your own tree.
A minimal basis you can copy and paste can be found under ./base/ which implements a very minimal game. You can walk around, jump and even shoot a projectile or two.
This is an example codebase implementing the minimum required to get going with Nuclide. So make a copy of it and play around there to get a feel for what you can do.
There are some other example games, such as FreeHL which you may want to look at too. Some games (usually not provided by us) have a different license so watch out as you don't want to step on anyones toes.
However if it's provided by us (Vera Visions, L.L.C.) then you can usually assume it's under some sort of free license. Wouldn't hurt to check however.
