The latest Project Genom update has been published that provides fans a bit of a look at what the team has been working on for the previous week. In this edition, improvements to the chat system have been started in addition to general technical server processing tasks and Mech improvements.
- Finished working on personal messages.
- Added a system for creating and deleting location channels. When a location is opened on the server, a separate local chat is created. The channel is deteled after all players exit the location and it’s unloaded.
- Added chat connection with the database that provides adequate functionality.
- Refined loading from the database. Chat command chatUser shows chat roles. Required for implementing the command system with GM priority (bans/disconnects/teleports).
- Refactored loading in the character editor that allows correct testing by two and more characters.
- Worked on the Mech’s camera, movement, jumps and dodges.
- Began working on the Mech weapon tuning.
- Redesigned the server configuration system.
The world building team has been going great guns as well, this time with the focus centered on improving the terrain with rivers, roads, rocks and other, smaller details.
