SDQL2 messery and tomhooligans
Posted: Sun Apr 28, 2019 6:40 am
Please move this to a better board if this is the wrong one. Just post SDQL queries that cause fun.
SDQL is a powerful yet inefficient and unintuitive/sloppy (read horrible) language for complex behavior. It should probably have a better substitute.
I spent too much time cooking up a fire-and-forget cinematic round ender (literally it ends the round for you) that drops a tesla missile at your current location in about a minute after a short series of announcements.
(haha most of it is queuing up the air raid siren a bunch of times because there's no for loops, it's not designed for this)
