Hi Everyone,
The BETA finally got updated yesterday YAY.... after some crash problems with the new server code, I think I've got most of those problems fixed by the end of last night.
Besides fixing the minor bugs and quirks, I've got 2 more items to finish up then we should be ready for a release of a new version. Firstly, is the editor which will be able to edit a the map on a server live when I'm done... and is necessary to get the new MV finished up and tested. Once done, we should be able to edit and make changes to the MV while running, bringing the down time to a minimum.
The second item, is the mission system, which is actually going to be a fairly simple system and should take only a couple of days to complete and test. The new mission system will replace the order system on the navigation map... you'll never directly assign an order to another player, instead if you need a planet captured or a ship escorted, simply target the object and click on 1 button. Your rank will determine the mission priority, and it will automatically get assigned to another player who can acomplish the mission.
Anyway, back to work, I'm fixing bugs in BETA as fast as I can... please download and join the beta test so we can get this version finally wrapped up and out the door and get onto greater and better things (i.e. platforms).
-Richard
