    I am actually amazed that they open sourced it.

    ARMA, old ARMA, is jank as a fuck as an engine, when not running on a supercomputer, but also… it does some pretty insane shit in terms of detail and scale and number of AI/NPC agents active at the same time.

    … there could be some interesting patterns in here, maybe not to emulate or use exactly as is, but try to learn from, if one is insterested in having a game that is basically also a big simulation.

    Is it normal for Arma games to be FOSS?

      Seems to be their first game from early 2000s so no. Really cool to see tho.
