    Trying to write some hack? What do you need that info for? He's using engine from Link-Dead, if I'm not mistaken, which was written by himself.

    You are deeply mistaken. I study IT (3. semester). I'm not into coding hacks. I was making a game with network support using HawkNL library but I wondered whether there is anything better (probably yes). If this is secret, I won't ask.

    It's just like I don't have any idea about it. You should ask MM directly.

    http://enet.bespin.org/ for connection and sending (essentially makes UDP behave sort of like TCP, or at least guarantees in-order delivery) and everything else networking wise coded by MM.

    Irrlicht for rendering + irrKlang for sound.

    Libnoise for noise functions.

    That's it as far as external libs go I think.

    That Enet is quite nice :-) Thanks.

    May I ask where in KAG use of libnoise is visible?

    The map generation. We're going to move to something else but we'll likely still use libnoise for noise generation for variation within tile types (for example very dark dirt to very rough dirt).

    Just MM really - I'm going to do some auxilliary coding when I get time, but other than that I do the art. We're the only two people working on the game, though there are others around in the moderation team and doing things serverside. Small team = fast turnaround and more control to follow our vision.

    I agree in this matter ;-) Less people, more control on project. (oh my Tetris in Pascal XD)
