The assets should not be in this repo

[jdetter]

The assets should be downloaded on launch, probably from a public folder for now. Adding more assets will bloat the repo a ton.

You could use svn instead.

Meh, it will take me longer to move everything over to svn then it would be for me to literally write code to download and untar a tarball on startup when the assets folder is empty. I know the git features better, and I'm assuming everyone else wants it on github =D

With a game like this, couldn't we just do asset downloading upon entering each map? Like how most Gmod servers function, if you don't have the assets, it just downloads them quick before you enter the server/map/room.

Tbh until project grows larger consider using dropbox for assets

Yeah we could do something like dropbox ^^ For now I say we just keep the assets in the repo until we have like a stable 'real' game. By then we will ready for something like dropbox or possibly hosting from a public folder or something like that.

git lfs is an option too. Just would add a dependency for development.

And then once you hit a release milestone: https://help.github.com/articles/distributing-large-binaries/

I've heard that git lfs is still not the best for games but that could just be coming from jaded game devs. As somebody who isn't working on this, I think it'd be great to try it out ah3h
