Weekly Dev Notes – July 15th

Bloggy

So, who’s done what?

Blue Dwarf

The web map is looking much better than last week. The map now shows anchor galaxies (such as Absolution) correctly on both layers, supports working out autopilot routes (although this still needs some work), improved UI and added the ability to toggle some extra display options, like colouring galaxies owned by the same team together.

While it’s mostly there, it could still use a little bit of work.

I’ve been through the suggestions system and cleaned up a few that we’ve done/we’re not doing, and managed to get us to review a couple.

Col Legno and Theodore

Fixed a bunch of stuff in subspace missions. Still working on the Blue Photon arm and the second Earthforce arm. Going to take a short break from subspace to fix up some of the t21 daily missions. Plans are to make custom dgs to house the pilots and the guardians. There will be bosses at the ends, but we also plan to keep the roamers in so that if a player can’t get to the boss at the end of the DG, they’ll still have the option of finding the roamers. We’re going to decrease the DF of the roamers range so they won’t go into perilous perilous.

Jey

Still working on the client performance / fixes. I also did a few tweaks on the webserver to reduce the website lags from backups and scores update.

Player questions!

Totally forgot to do them! Many apologies although we are in need of some more questions. It seems some of your submissions are more of statements… Or paragraphs rather than questions. Pretty please submit us some more! They don’t even have to be about the game but could be about us ourselves.

Here’s the link to submit them!
