As many of you know, I have been trying to write a tactical role-playing game (a mix of turn-based stategy & RPG) in D. This is the furthest I have ever gotten in making an interactive program from the main function up. Right now, it is not yet playable as a game, but you can interact with it

Bit fields are currently going through the DIP process, although because of ImportC having it, its just a matter of turning them on and adding the parser stuff. However there is a major drawback to it and is why you'll still need to use a struct and that is you can't take a pointer to it.
