Finally getting back to work on Astrobiz, as this "small project" nears its second full month of development (or rather, nears its 5th full week of non-development following roughly 3 weeks of development). My schedule only really allows for running games late at night--not quite in the ungodly hours, but pretty close. Look for a couple late night testing sessions this week.

Also possibly going to be working on Treasure Quest a bit. Nothing major there (custom stuff is still a long ways off), just want to smooth out a few minor bumps (after all the ragging I've given Unknown Person for having Ultimatum eliminate players on logout, I probably ought to fix Treasure Quest's similar behavior).

Speaking about Treasure Quest, one game I played I think I ran into a bug. I was fighting a spider-thing, and got sprayed (a few times) by its attack that causes you to stick in place, and prevents movement. I killed it. I was unable to move for the rest of the game (hundreds of turns). :(

:D

I will look for late night sessions! Unfortunately I've been going to bed at normal hours finally, but maybe I'll make an exception.

You'll see just how long it takes to turn that exception into a problem. ;-)

Awesome. Perfect timing for me. >:D

Darnit! How recently was this? I could've sworn I had that fixed; maybe it's an unreleased patch.

How do you change the 'Custom Content' thing's color and background, Leftley? I need it, but it looks ugly. =(

I think it was a week or two after christmas, but I can't be certain that the version being hosted was current at that time.

Leftley, Treasure Quest is one of my favorite games on BYOND. I just really wish you'd update it more o.o I really love the game but the features become repetitive after about 20 rounds..

You're in luck, then, because I've been working on some new stuff for Treasure Quest lately, in spite of what this post says (working on the player handling stuff got me interested enough in the game again to get around to doing some more content for the game.)

Awesome. I ranked the game in my top 4, since I love it so much :D

I host it quite a bit, I can't wait until you finish the new version.
