So I'm really wondering if this game has the ability to write some of its own logic code. The reason I'm pondering over this is that I tried two different seeds and got different results as far as a particular thing. Before I elaborate though, did you know that it doesn't just generate stationary ambiences? It makes moving things as well.
Now to the interesting part. I generated a world that had moving vehicles. Not only that, but they sounded very convincing. Yes, they definitely sounded synthetic, but in whatever way synthesized sounds can sound real enough that you just kind of ignore the fact that they're synthesized at all, that's how these are. They sound futuristic, but also, you hear things that sound like big rigs with air brakes.
In this first world, the vehicles took no notion to me, except to beep at me. Yes, you heard this right, they beep at me if I'm too close to where they're driving. If I back off a little and stand there, they go by without honking at me. If I stood in the way, they would just run right through me. However, in the second world I generated that actually contained vehicles, not only did they beep at me, but they stopped for me as well. If I was in the path, they would slow down and stop, waiting for me to go by before continuing. They would also randomly stop, as if signaled to do so by a traffic light or stop sign, but then continue. Without fail though, any time I was in their path, they would stop for me.
So what grants the vehicles in the second world this need or want to stop for me, when the first vehicles would just drive through me. Is this game literally writing some of its own code?
If you want to experience this for yourself and you have the game, use the seed, "fridge-going-out", without the quotes. Which, as an aside, is something that's happening to me IRL so I thought I'd try it as a seed. I don't know if this works in the demo or not. I bought the game outright because I liked every other game that this developer has come up with, so if you have the demo and can't access free roam, or it doesn't let you input a seed, that's probably why.
