Build System Status Update

Just a quick update as progress is continuing, all of the ship floor object placement code has now been completed, this not only includes the placement of floor objects and rooms in whatever way you want to lay them out but also all of the walk map data has now been completed and updated. There is still some work that can be done with wall objects but those aren't considered blocking for the next update. A lot of this was rewritten and built from scratch to avoid the bugs and issues that came from the old system of the constant reiteration and changing things while the game was in heavy experimentation mode. What took so long between updates? I'm sure this is a question but there was a huge knot that had to be fixed with some layering issues and the way crew members, doors, and objects all overlayed properly on the game world. This has now been cleared up and should be a great working solution. Also a bit of illness caused some slowdown to be transparent but everything is back going full speed. The next step is now getting the AI (crew members) to adhere to all of the new changes and to respond accordingly. Then making sure all of the art is in its finalized form and not just the blocked out art you see as things just need to be smoothed out. Personally I am extremely passionate about getting all these changes into everyone's hands as quickly as possible but want to make sure the experience feels great so there is a great base to build onto for the additional content. This may ruffle some feathers but I'm committed to getting the game to the quality level I am happy with so patience is needed but from what I have played I think everyone will be very happy with the change. A lot of this is a massive rehaul of a lot of the overall systems. All of this isn't a really fast quick change or taped on so remain patient and will try and get more images and pics up soon to showcase the changes. Feel free to ask any questions on the forums and I will try and get to them.
