gol VS TrinityCore

I read Understanding the 4 Rules of Simple Design by Corey Haines yesterday evening.

It's a short book, so you can get through it in one sitting. The advice is mostly about OOP design, and how to shuffle things around and invent arbitrary constraints in order to make the code more testable. I found the advice fairly… underwhelming.

I decided to implement Conway's Game of Life myself (though not with OOP) as the author asserted the advice transcends implementation languages and paradigms.

My implementation isn't amazing either, but I'm not convinced by the advice in the book.

Here's my implementation.

You could take a look at TrinityCore[1] and adjacent projects! Best of luck!

Trinitycore has 3.4.0 for Wotlk classic but it's pure sandbox. It's so much work to be done so don't expect it to be released. https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/tree/wotlk_classic

You can host your own WoW server locally! I would personally recommend TrinityCore. It can be a little bit of a hassle, here's a setup guide.

If they use the base TrinityCore code there's no processing (the whole point of GetAll is a minimal processing dump of the data as-is). You can see the commit for it here https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/commit/3aaeb574050668e5a240078f6e40337c3975d110 and you can see it just dumps what is there until 55k then stops hard.

You can just compile one here - https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore

TrinityCore, AzerothCore- C++, these and others like them are the server for projects- well-known for being used on private WOW servers, so they're probably good enough for your personal project https://www.libhunt.com/r/TrinityCore - https://www.trinitycore.org/ - https://www.azerothcore.org/
