stalker_txt

A microblogging bot that posts randomly generated messages from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video games every few hours

  • Fediverse
  • Used to be on Twitter, but… y'know.
The bot is written in Rust and parses the actual game localization files to build the messages.
Some things such as location names are hardcoded (although I intend to load them from the game as well at some point).
Fun fact: Messages referencing the time of day or weather use current real world data for Chornobyl.
Screenshot of a message the bot posted: [Vitya Pebble, Clear Sky] There's a certain stalker in Zaton, by the workshop substation who should be very cautious. Heard some mercenaries are out for him.
Screenshot of a message the bot posted: [Mercenary, Private Channel] Intercepted some scientist messages, a psy-storm should arrive this afternoon. Keep your personnel sheltered.
