How MOTHd generates things

Neale Pickett edited this page Mar 12, 2019 · 4 revisions

This page used to talk about all the files MOTHv2 dropped in the state directory.

MOTHv3 pre-generates as much as possible (points log, puzzles list) in a separate "maintenance" routine, and stores it in memory. This is handed out verbatim whenever anyone comes asking, so very little code is executed. If you have to restart MOTH, it has to rebuild everything, but that's not really a big deal and should take under 500ms on most platforms.
