Cool.
So let's talk a little bit about what you're working on.
It's a very, very requested feature.
This guy is working on dedicated servers right now.
or not right now but like in
Markus
general well right uh generally it's been going okay with the dedicated service we have gotten the in-game parts up and we have uh or some of the in-game parts so loading and saving that stuff kind of works now so you can actually from the in-game as a client load and save and then we
We have a server up and running and the basics of it running, but we do not have all the features that like community.
How do I connect to my friend?
How do I find my friend?
Because we have new server browser right now because we only play by friends.
So that's currently what we're trying to figure out, how to do all these kind of things and also find all the crashes and get it up and running on Windows.
And when we have Windows running, we're going to try to see if it's a possibility for other platforms and if we have time for that.
Snutt
Yeah.
Yeah, that's really cool if we can do that.
So you mentioned that like admin stuff.
Is there anything else that you felt like?
Do we notice stuff that's like, oh shit, we need to do this as well?
Markus
Mostly that the UI is not made for it.
And so just now, and the UI has been really, really busy lately.
So it's just been me
ad-hoc-ing in the UI right now so there's a couple of fine program arts in there and there's also a lot of just trying to get the current UI to work on dedicated servers because we almost always assume that there is a player on the server and right now there will be new players on the server and that has caused a few issues here and there but I think you cleaned up a lot of that mess before.
Hopefully.
Snutt
Yeah.
