Hello fellow developers. I've encountered an interesting way of
managing FOV on RogueBasin, the article is titled "Modelling Rays for
Line of Sight in an Object-Rich World". There is a link in the article
to an example implementation written in Java. The problem is, the link
doesn't work (it seems that the author's account on Fileave has been
disabled). Has anyone downloaded the implementation while the link was
still working? If so, would you be so kind to send me the file? I'd be
extremely grateful.

Mingos.

Indeed, such behaviour isn't the most desirable. Maybe the author
fixes it sometime soon... Anyway, thank you for the link.

Mingos.

Since you are in contact with him maybe you could ask if he would agree
to post his article to Roguebasin?
