Helion - C# (Doom 1/2 Source Port) (PKGBUILD Request)

Greetings Dear arch users,

A modern Doom engine written from the ground up with a focus on performance.

- Already available on Debian and Ubuntu. It is quite popular in the doom scene.

- Has GPL3 License.

- https://github.com/Helion-Engine/Helion

Would be extremely happy if someone did this PKGBUILD, because I am a noob at programming :-)
(Also it needs some cruel building in Rider with the .NET framwork against Linux, which I don't understand :3)

The build instructions are targeted at users with IDEs and not suitable for systemwide build . Anyone who tries to create a PKGBUILD for it will probably have to look at how debian has packaged it.

Given the huge amount of doom pacakges already in AUR, is this worth the effort ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

The linux build instructions refer to a normal bash script using the dotnet SDK/compiler to build a release, should be quite straight forward. I might give this a shot tonight/tomorrow

I knew that it would not be so hard, if I knew what I was doing.. because it depends on dotnet sdk
You really safe me V1del
