It's just so cool to see you post, my insane comment was worth it.

Wolfe? You still live? Welcome back mate!

Well, back home, I still don't have internet in my apartment so I'll only be able to "report" once or twice a week.

Oh no!
Well college work comes first I guess.

Well yeah, but in 5-6 years I hope you'll have a good chief engineer.

Just to tell you guys. I'm feeling the urge to play BOTF (2) now. Can't wait till it's out from pre-alpha.

Any chance to get some paceholders here, maybe even a remote target for an update release?

trouble is with botf after a while its like scraping your head against a rock, especially with the knowledge that theres almost another option out there

I know what you mean...

the memory drain or whatever it is when it tries to process turns

You're already helping with the forum update!

...Oops, that's not public knowledge yet...

Great news indeed.

So welcome back Captain Andrew and yes that is good news.

So it's a new year (actually it has been for 1 month now ). What are the plans for this year? How is the project doing and most importantly our dev team. As one of your loyal fans, I still wish to see this project enter Alpha, hopefully pretty soon. Was there any luck recruiting new people. In the past 6 months I have learned Fortran (because I had to in school). I doubt that's of any use, but if there is a sight remote chance it is, I'd like to help. (I really can't be bothered to learn anything now, my school aint doing too good. )

Best of luck with your studies Zweistein000. We are all plugging away and hoping for a new release though I cannot say when.

I'm just glad that the project's chugging along. Been satiating my thirst for BOTF by playing the old one...ewww...

ya unfortunately the only programming i know is for facility automation and controls. ladder logic, rockwell hmi, so forth. and even those skills are starting to get rusty. but if you did need someone to program a valve to open or a pump to start im your man.

Thanks for the offer solas and glad to have your input.
We are willing to wait for someone to learn a new skill. That is especially true if you already have programing skills.

Big report: A Croatian programmer has just contacted me wanting to join the project. He would need all the code/ui/art we did but would start his own code from scratch in high-level rapid development language - Python.

Great news - I would ask if blender's game engine could be used for a combat engine. Python is run when blender loads.

Those Croatians. We need to go easy on the guy and not ask for every new feature under the sun. If we could just take what we have and turn it into an actual working game...

hehehe, everybody is trying to defeat us but in the end we save the day

He'll be registering soon explaining his exact plans.

A quick look at the blender game engine and there is a way to do multiplayer. We will see.
