This week Martin enjoyed the second half of his vacation and managed to stay away from work rather well. In the meantime I resumed my work on the material editor.

This was a very quiet week. Literally. Both Michi and myself were on vacation this week so there isn't too much progress to report on. But I couldn't help but experiment with something that has been bothering me for a while now: Tile contexts!

Michi is on vacation throughout week 94 and 95, so it's Martin speaking! This week, I finally completed the chat feature's improved integration into the tiling UI. It took quite a bit longer than originally planned, but I think it turned out quite nicely. Because of this, I'll just plaster this week...

Before leaving for two well-earned weeks of vacation, Michi continued getting our data pipeline into shape. Meanwhile, Martin worked away on the revamp of the chat feature.

Work on the game continues more or less as usual and we're making steady progress on the way to first limited Alpha tests. But a lot of tasks remain to be finished until then, both in terms of development and on the business-side of things.

These week, Michi gives you a comprehensive tour of our largest custom development tool: The World & Material Editor. Meanwhile, Martin reports about the true problems in implementing transponder codes for the ships in PU.
