This repository contains only code that builds the data used in PMDO, its updater, and scripts that are run to deploy it. It does not contain the base engine of the game! The submodules supply those things:

Submodules

• PMDC: Contains battle system code roguelike engine that PMDO runs on.
• DumpAsset: Contains the full asset data for PMDO.
• RawAsset: Contains unconverted graphics.

Pull all submodules recursively.

• Run git submodule update --init --recursive to get all the submodules.
• You may need to regenerate NuGet packages for the RogueEssence solution first, before building.

Building Game

• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x86 PMDC/PMDC/PMDC.csproj to publish to Windows x86.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 PMDC/PMDC/PMDC.csproj to publish to Windows.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 PMDC/PMDC/PMDC.csproj to publish to Linux.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r osx-x64 PMDC/PMDC/PMDC.csproj to publish to Mac.
• Files will appear in the publish folder.

Building Server

• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 PMDC/RogueEssence/WaypointServer/WaypointServer.csproj to publish to Windows.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 PMDC/RogueEssence/WaypointServer/WaypointServer.csproj to publish to Linux.

Building Installer/Updater

• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 PMDOSetup/PMDOSetup.csproj to publish to Windows.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r linux-x64 PMDOSetup/PMDOSetup.csproj to publish to Linux.
• Run dotnet publish -c Release -r osx-x64 PMDOSetup/PMDOSetup.csproj to publish to Linux.
• Files will appear in the publish folder.

DataGenerator and MapGenTest are two projects not meant to be deployed.

• DataGenerator is used to construct data files of all dungeons, Pokémon, etc.
• MapGenTest is used to bulk test and debug dungeon maps.

DataGenerator Deployment Order

• One-time: Run -itemprep to generate monster/status/element tables needed for items.

• Run Scripts/item_sync.py to update exclusive item spreadsheet with data generated above. It will generate a csv of exclusive items to be used in the -dump step.

• Reserialize Skills and Monster (Or regenerate Monster) using -reserialize Skill or -reserialize Monster

• Dump all data using -dump. It depends on the csv of exclusive items to generate that exclusive items (item creation). It also generates an XML to map species to family items (spawning lookup), and a common_gen.lua containing tables of generic trades and specific trades.

• Generate tables for string merge with -strings out.

• Sync the translation table using Scripts/strings_sync.py

• Uptake tables for string merge with -strings in.
