I still get 403 error when I attempt to "push" changes. Am I pushing the wrong button?
EDIT: Should I fork the repo as per https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo ? Or do something else? How do new changes get merged into the master?

How hard can it be

Um, Cap, where do we post the latest build of our community development drive?

Ha dialogue.txt. Good to see you found it 
I haven't read it from top to bottom, but what I have read of it I have found very guiding. Definitely recommended reading for those seeking to further develop things.

IVAN is so old it might as well be written in C.

Eng student? Fantastic! What discipline? Are you studying at Vic, Auckland or Canterbury?
I am also running Windows 7, 64 bit.
I use programmer's notepad which suits me. You can use your favourite.
The compiler I use is MinGW 32 bit with version 3.4.2. For some reason this works well. This is stored under C:\MinGW\
Then I use the makefile that comes with the source, and the settings as per http://www.attnam.com/topics/1193/How_to_compile_CLIVAN_chal...
In fact the set-up to compile CLIVAN is the same as for IVAN CVS.
If you can get your hands on Microsoft Visual C++ (or Code::Blocks) and open IVAN as a project, you can use the search functionality for extremely rapid sourcediving, which is great if you want to copy paste some code funtions to make something really wierd and novel, like a fire-breathing bat.

Hi lum4r! Welcome, looks like you've been added to Trello
I'd say taking a look at the source is a good place to start. It is a little dizzying, but not totally abstruse.
IVAN is coded in C++ so it is a bit object oriented, which is the difference to C. But it is really easy to get the hang of and if you've played IVAN for a long time you'll quickly recognise the game mechanics from the source.

Yes you will need a compiler. What operating system are you running?

Hi Lampshade! Do you have any numbers that you would use to bring balance to LIVAN? Like balancing (introduced) weapons for instance? I have tried this in CLIVAN but I don't know if I had the right mix.

I like it!
yeah we need to stick to main line development. I think what blob posted a wee while back is pretty relevant.
