Building

These instructions are rough and intended as guideposts. I haven't had the time to properly test them.

Windows

• Visual Studio 2022
• You can also use Visual Studio Code, but you'll still need to install a C++ compiler (MSVC or MinGW or zig maybe?).
• Install the CMake extension.
• Open the project folder in VS Code or Visual Studio.
• Wait a little bit for the CMake extension to configure the project.
• In Visual Studio, click on the CMake menu and then click on Build All.
• In VS Code, look to the bottom left and click on the CMake button. Select RelWithDebugInfo or Release. If asked for architecture, select x64.
• Select newcity. Then click on the Build button.
• Probably get build errors, ask Dr ChatGippity what the problem is, you'll figure it out.
• Run newcity by clicking on the play button.

Linux (Ubuntu)

• Install: cmake build-essential gdb libopenal-dev libopenal1 libglu1-mesa-dev (and your graphics card drivers) (probably some other stuff too)

• Using a terminal, do:

    cd src
    ./fix-cmake.sh
    ./fast.sh
  

Mac OS X

• Ask ChatGippity
