just a Few patchs would bring this shard up to some decent point so people could use the same install to play on this shard and others.

At this point we cannot do this update as it would involve also putting code that is not considered stable for production. We are working our best to try to get the code at a point that is stable, so we can do a potential "pre revamp" update rollup. Mostly bug fixes and also switching to the new save-less system. I have no ETA for any of this though, still a ton more work to do.

Can you please explain why you can't just update part of the code on the live server? You can be very specific, I have over 10 years of experience in building, coding and testing software.

Everything is very tightly integrated into each other, it's more then just adding a few lines of code to a certain file. Some of the files that are modified may also be modified elsewhere for part of a system that is not yet production worthy, and to release that file would require to release any dependency files. TC1 is basically a "pre mirror" of live as far as code goes. Following proper ITIL process development is only done in dev, then tested on test, then published to live.

I've actually thought of doing that. RunUO is a real mess and we spend more time cleaning things up then actual content coding. Now is too late to be starting from scratch though. Maybe in the far future, I can look at making an emulator from scratch in C++ that runs on Linux. Would be overall more efficient and more expandable. The issue with RunUO is everything was coded for the UO era at the time, then new eras were just patched on top, again and again. The craft system for example shows this a lot, it's a pure disaster working in that code. So much redundant and obsolete code, it's hard to tell what's what.

Did you see how often TC1 crashes? You don't want that live, trust me. Razz

Ok, so when it crashes there's like hardly no revert, if any, but still!

So what can I test on TC1 till you get some time to waste updateing everything?
Is there a list some where. I am a prick for finding bugs and errors.
I can also back engineer any thing code wise. Very Happy

If you would like to report a bug, drop a house on tc1, then take 1 item out of a container from the house you dropped (to drop a house type in [props target the house sign go the second page and change movable to true instead of false) and look what happens to the countainer that the item was in Wink
