i still love playing this game, even after all this time. one of the best city builders ever still. i love how much vibrance and charm they got out of that limited color palette in DOS. Playing it now via SC2kFix. Really nice way to run it in modern windows.

similarly the sc2kfix logo is the Top Secret building sprite a) because I like it and b) because it was borked in the windows version and could never spawn normally, so for years it only existed as a mysterious building in the tileset editor for me and the name always made me wonder what it was for

if I ever accept LLM slop code into sc2kfix I encourage everyone to descend on my position and beat me to death with hammers
congratulations to @keepassxc.org on using the "who cares where it came from if it works the same" excuse for bringing LLM-generated slop into their codebase

You know what? Fuck it. The SimCity 2000 trip/traffic system is so bad I want to reimplement it as a distance-vector routing protocol.
sc2kfix Release 10, on the other hand, will be coming out in the next few days.
