Help & Advice Needed: DoomRL (console/ascii)
Hi has anyone been able to successfully run DRL in console mode? i.e. full ascii classic format instead of graphical tiles.
I downloaded v10 tar from the official site, I ran drl_konsole - only the arrow keys and enter key works. None of the other keys would trigger a response i.e. I couldn't type letters to name my character. I could proceed to the main game but only arrow directional buttons work. I've checked settings.lua - I tried troubleshooting with Claude - the fella is going around in circles as usual.
The purple theme is just my own Konsole theme.
