Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead
Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead (aka Cataclysm DDA or CataDDA) is an open source survival horror roguelike set in a post-apocalyptic and fictional New England. Unlike most roguelikes, it has no goal: the player is free to explore the procedurally generated map, clear areas of monsters, work with NPCs, and build shelters and vehicles. The gameplay is mainly based on day-to-day survival, and the game tracks parameters like hunger, thirst, morale, illness and temperature which the player must manage to stay alive. Like most roguelikes Cataclysm: DDA follows turn based gameplay. The world has support

Official announcements, newest first. Posted on Steam.
- Community AnnouncementsFix - add sounds backThe update deleted CC-sounds, so I added it again from the public repo. If you started the game without it, it would have reverted, and you'll need to go to the options menu and select CC-sounds again.

- Community AnnouncementsWorkshop mod loading hotfix- fixed folder path for steam workshop mods - fixed workshop id for in-repo mods so they don't show up in workshop upload list
- Community AnnouncementsWorkshop is live!You can now upload and download mods via Steam Workshop! I made it as simple as possible - you create a mod that the game can see as a mod (see the documentation on creating mods on the repo) and you press "Upload"! It's as simple as that! To play a mod from the workshop, all you need to do is subscribe, and the mod becomes installed. Then you create a new world with that mod enabled as normal!...
- Community AnnouncementsDisable Cloud ConfigThere are some issues with having configs saved in the cloud, such as not being able to delete and reset them easily, and also if someone has multiple platforms they play on with different keybindings. For that reason, the cloud no longer syncs config files.

There are just too many feelings and thoughts to roll into an event description like this, but this release surely wouldn't have happened without the continuous encouragement of the community for the past 5 years. Here's to 5 more! and beyond!

Why Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead mods break
A mod is compiled against one version of a game. When the game updates, anything that reached into the parts that moved stops working, and it usually stops working silently rather than with a message that explains itself.
That is what the table above counts. It is not a guess: each row is a mod the community has reported as broken by that specific release. The number is a fair measure of how disruptive an update was, and it is the reason people delay updating a game they have modded heavily.
Common questions
Does IndexGG host Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead mods?
No, and it never will. Every download link points at the author's own page on Nexus, GitHub, CurseForge or wherever they published it. We index the ecosystem; the files stay with the people who made them.
Where does the compatibility data come from?
From the communities that maintain it in the open, not from guesswork. Each claim carries how it is known, so a reported breakage is never presented as though the author said it.
Why is a mod listed as broken when it works for me?
Compatibility depends on your exact game version and the rest of your load order. A mod marked as broken in one release may work fine on an older one, which is exactly why the version is recorded next to the claim rather than a bare yes or no.
