He meant that was when a working test version will be released. I was wondering if this is still true.

K Thanx Bai That depands on Copernicus´ bugs. As far as I know, it still doesn´t work. | |

| Dunno. I work on it when I get time, but I have not been getting time lately. And that's probably not going to change any time soon. Too many IRL projects. On the plus side, some of the stuff I'm learning for those projects is transferable to Futurecraft. For instance, I can now write custom compression algorithms, and now I'm learning encryption techniques. The compression, particularly, will help with the new file format, and the encryption will help for validating the origin of data if we integrate P2P protocol down the road, which would greatly lessen the load on servers, or in some cases eliminate the need for them altogether.
That's the best I can say for now. Useful or not, IRL comes first, sadly. | |

| No. I don't think that much attention would help us. Plus we have plenty of talented people coming and going without knowing what to do because we are disorganized. Adding more to the mix won't change things. | |

| OK, so GET ORGANIZED. Not your problem fr0st, I know, but Mack and everyone need to get a single unified plan together of what NEEDS to be implemented before a proper release.
Off the top of my head, my list:
High Priority
Ship mobility (collision, space, movement, [Copernicus], treatment as a single entity, speed from module)
Cores and Modules (get them finalized so they can be implemented quickly)
Weaponry (lasers, railguns, accelerator, torpedoes/missiles)
Power Systems (Generator module, wiring, control systems)
Shields (strength from modules)
Inter-server Travel (Barely. moving inventories and entities, not hard if ships are treated as a single object but unfeasible if they are not)
Medium Priority
Shipyards (Keon had them to a decent point back in March, should be able to finish them quickly)
Building Materials (new blocks/resources to make survival feasible)
Fighters (point defense, unmanned auto attack. Hard, but necessary due to lack of numbers. Only target capital ships.)
Fleshing Out (generator, engine and shield types; more weapons, bombs)
Low Priority
Ground Forces (tanks, guns, etc.)
Fighters (manned)
Fleshing Out (more building materials, more fighters, bombers)
I suggest you get together a list like this so this mod can be finished within the next solar year, using this one as a starting point and re-prioritizing it slightly. I will admit I'm not very savvy to the development of the mod so this is only what things look like from where I stand. | |

| Okay, the problem is that Copernicus is required to make pretty much everything else run. | |

| You could get all the non Copernicus stuff, like guns and blocks, done now, then when Copernicus is done, you only need to make the codes play nice. | |

I will admit I'm not very savvy to the development of the mod so this is only what things look like from where I stand. I see fighters higher, as it would bring a lot of excitement to the mod. If we had the "Futurecraft Fighter Dogfight server" people would get interested. I wish we had torpedos and such, that would be good. | |

| Guys I learned java and I am now better than frostbyte. Look at this: - Spoiler:
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World"); }
}
That is like 5 times what Copernicus's code is right. Okay that is all. | |

Agreed. Once you figure out what needs to be done on the Java side, it [should] be much easier to implement it. @keon - I put fighters where they are simply because other things are more important. I guess they could be medium priority, after all, it's been done before. @khmac - wrong place, wrong time. | |

You better use the "code" button, makes stuff look nicer. Also lets teach you how to do 1+1 and save it , and then check if the math rules in this universe work like ours . - Spoiler:
- Code:
-
public class MathTest {
public static void main(String[] args) { int answer; answer = 1 + 1;
if (answe==2) System.out.println("Huh we are still in our universe"); else { System.out.println("S**T S**T S**T S**T I KNEW I DIDNT HAVE TO EAT THAT S**T !"); System.out.println(" 1+1=" + answer); } }
}
So is it right ? I dont know Java . | |

That is like 5 times what Copernicus's code is right. Okay that is all. Well shit. Everyone, I have an announcement to make. I am hereby stepping down as lead developer of Futurecraft. Hyperlite has shown me (and rightfully so) that my code-fu is weak, and that he is the right man for the job. Therefore, I am having Hyperlite take my place as lead developer effective immediately. Normally I would pass on what code I have, but I do not wish to offend him with my badness. I am sure you will all be in good hands. Now I am off to Tahiti. Goodbye. | |

Ok well as head director of futurecraft look at my signature. Make a model of something like that for the tier two core. Also screw the whole engine thing we just need content that we can't do anything with. Also I want some cookies just like mother used to make asap. Oh also I can get the 5 star insignia. And I get one of those "fr0stbyte" sig quotes people have. | |
