Version History:
Version: v0.01b of AES
I scrapped the former versions of Tree Transparancy, and instead incorporated it into my new lib. It is considerably better written, better designed, and more efficient. I have only just begun testing, but so far I'd say this entire system should be completely viable for large scale deployment without any issues.
Currently, since I am not a BYOND member and I cannot create an entry for my Advanced Event Response and Event Request System, I am hereby naming it "Tree Transparancy V0.5 2.0", and uploading it here. We will pretend that it is a lib for handling tree transparency, and I really got carried away with developing side features.
The more I think about it I think AES is eventually going to turn into its own engine, probably called Aries or the Aries Engine. In its current form it actually isn't all that far off from what I would release as a jumping point for new developers.
I'm not going to include any further documentation on AES here, simply that if you wanted to see the new version of Tree Transparency, it is included here. Want to see it in action immediately? Compile, Run, and press the Scan verb. Enjoy!
