I like the character based 1.31 Empire.

I'm playing with the C++ source and have (had?) some issues. I worked around them, but I'm puzzled at the source as released. I compiled with dmc, so I don't think it's a difference in compiler used. I am on Windows 11 and I don't know if it's been compiled by anyone recently, so it may be a subtle library issue, but it'd be pretty subtle.

I'm thinking of making a few changes and like to connect with anyone who has experience with the source.

Thanks.
