ALAN’S NEXT PROJECT: MORE PLANET AUTO-LINKING

by Hazed

Alan has started looking at the next phase of the auto-linking project, which will let POs add a fourth planet to their star systems without our intervention. This follows the successful completion of the third planet auto-linking code recently.

It seems that each new planet makes the process even more complex, so I can’t begin to estimate how long it will take. I suspect it will be longer than two weeks – and it won’t be ready by Christmas!

We’ve also had requests from several players that they be allowed to have more than five planets in their system. It sounds like a good idea – but we will charge a large number of slithies for the privilege. More info on this after the holidays.
