Hey guys, good evening! I would like to know if the The Dream Maker
Designer’s Guide to Worlds is still relevant. It is 16 years old. I'm asking this because I want to learn and make games on Byond and I need to know if it's deprecated. If it's, is there anywhere I can get fresh information?

While a lot of the information is old, the basics of DM syntax are all there. It's a very good guide for first starting out.
|
The best places to get updates would be in articles like the ones in Tutorials & Snippets, and also the DM Reference is very helpful for learning specifics about various procs and concepts.
|
The DM Guide is also the same as the old guide book with some appendix work at the end for new(er) features. It's still a bit out-dated, but the language reference is always current.

All of my posts in Tutorials & Snippets can be found here. The Dream Tutor series is especially helpful.
