What a surprise to see Soldat on hackernews :)

I maintained Soldat back from version 1.5+ to 1.7 before someone else took over for a few years.

The current version on Steam is Soldat 1.7 while the open source version is an unfinished Soldat 1.8 and needs some love before it can be released (gui is missing, new netcode, switch to lazarus/fpc, macOS and GNU/Linux support, new config file format to name a few.)

So don't expect everything to work out of the box if you compile it.

Any help is welcome btw ;)
