Jace
But will we have... What's the possibility of dedicated servers?
We want to have dedicated servers.
Right now, we don't...
fully supported, but it's kind of not... Half-assed support, I guess.
Snutt
Getting there.
Jace
Yeah, we're getting there.
Like, we want dedicated servers.
It's just that we need to spend, like, production time on actually making sure that it runs well on dedicated servers.
Yeah.
And right now, we're focusing on... That it runs at all.
That it runs
Snutt
at
Jace
all, basically.
But we want that.
And it's the same thing with mods.
I guess you can just bring that up immediately.
We want mods as well.
We really want mods.
Absolutely.
But it's the same thing there.
We need to spend the production time to make it happen.
And right now, we want the game to run at all.
Yeah.
We need the base game.
Yeah.
Like...
working really well.
But we have been, like the architecture of the game has mods in mind always.
So whenever we add new stuff or when we develop the engine further, we always have like mod support in mind.
So once we actually start implementing it,
It will hopefully be
Snutt
more
Jace
straightforward.
We don't need to remake the game to support it.
In fact, at one point in development, mods were made.
That's about as far as we got at that
Snutt
point.
Jace
We could make mods, and some people outside of the office made some mods.
But yeah, we basically abandoned that for now.
