Topic: Small Delay for a Good Cause
I'm very close to done, but something I've been waiting on is finally done...the new release of PunBB (our forum software). It's changed a bit, so I have to change how the game connects to things to verify your account. The theme needs to be rebuilt for the new code also.
The biggest reason I want to get moved to the new version (1.3) is that the new version supports extensions. Putting in the [SPOILER] tag before actually required that I modify the base forum code, and I had to manually merge in any changes or patches every release. With the extensions, I've just made a "spoiler extension" that adds the functionality. I'll also be able to easily add any additional functionality we might want.
I have the front page, leaderboards, and game itself working with the new version, and will be doing the theme next.
Once the reintegration is complete, I'll be finishing a small change to the auctions (to work with the new inventory system), and I'm taking away the navigation keys in favor of moving with the mouse. If you haven't been following that thread, it will work like this:
1. You click the mouse wherever on the map you want to move.
2. You still click on an enemy to target them.
3. The "W" key will toggle melee and ranged attack modes.
4. (Maybe) While in combat you will only be able to select a space one square away for movement.
