I&#8217;m going to add in a simple tutorial\/help system to help new players get started.\u00a0 I&#8217;m going to make inventory weight affect your max speed (but no endurance yet). I&#8217;m thinking about teaching the AI to loot bodies, but I don&#8217;t want bandits stealing all the players gear (not fun) so I still have to think about that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>After that, here are my plans for 2012 in rough order:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ability to purchase or build your own buildings.\u00a0 That will be a longer update, but I&#8217;m half finished with that already.<\/li>\n<li>Stuff to put in your buildings. Storage and beds.\u00a0 Lockable doors.\u00a0 AI that will smash doors to get to you.<\/li>\n<li>Research, crafting, mining and farming.\u00a0 Big update there.<\/li>\n<li>Capturing prisoners, police that arrest you, slavers that catch people. Prisoner of war camps. Slavery and slave traders.<\/li>\n<li>Add a lot more factions and behaviour.\u00a0 You should note that the current game with its 3 big factions its just a temporary placeholder, I don&#8217;t think much of it.\u00a0 Proper structure is needed, police, bounty hunters, slavers, civilians, cannibals.\u00a0 Not just &#8220;soldiers and bandits&#8221;.<\/li>\n<li>Sound.\u00a0 Once I scrape together $5600 for the audio engine, I&#8217;ll probably need the same again to hire a sound designer, a professional.<\/li>\n<li>I also want to hire a good shader programmer to overhaul the lighting system and add shadows so I can have a night-day cycle. This can be done anytime, I just need to find someone.\u00a0 Any programmers good with graphics and shaders (Ogre experience a bonus) feel free to contact me for the job.\u00a0 No beginners or volunteers, professionals only please.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next update is 0.24 and it will be released roughly\u00a0this thursday.
