  • status report (source code) ?

    As you may have noticed, i havent been visiting here recently as much as i used too, of course when i heard news of the source code I showed up agian.

    But im kinda lost, a huge explosion of things have suddenly happened as the source code has been released, a new forum made and a million posts appearing in it over night.

    im used to following things at a slower pace, like when the only CtP2 coding was SLIC and things happened much more slowly.

    So could some one tell me basically whats going on, whats the current status and plans.

    Is there a team being put together to work with the source code and make CtP2 the game we always wanted it to be ?

    Is the source code going to be re-commented by someone who knows what there doing?

    Is there a clear idea on what will be done with the source code (involving mods etc)

    What about leftovers from Ctp1, CtP2 Beta or anything else... or is it to early to tell ?

    Other than the known CtP2 bugs, is there any plans by anyone to make a huge mod taking full advantage of the source code and making all sorts of things (like i mentioned a long time ago in the Best of Both worlds thread which i cant find) like barbarian encampments, great Civ2 features great Civ3 features etc etc ?

    Everything seems to have happened so quick and i dont know where we are

    Anyway thanks in advance

    EDIT: I just discovered this thread which has some very exciting stuff, i think it should be made a sticky or something
