Maybe better path finding? I think this particular one should be the next one after the upgrade update.

i've looked at df website and the unreal world website and they both have a development page where it shows all the planned features of the game, if this game already doens't have this page could it be added?

Might be cool to have mining, resource gathering, crafting, etc so NPCs actually have reasons to run around towns and bandits have something to actually profit from.

I can think of 1 small cosmetic change that would be trivial to implement but would add a disproportionately large chunk of feeling to the game.

An icon for the game launcher. You don't even need to make one, simply use the black header ^ there and crop out the left side so that white silhouette with the word 'Kenshi' is left. Then just make it as the icon. 10 minutes of work tops, but makes the game feel a little more professional. You can always change it at a later date if/when your artist gets around to making a real one.

I think he does have a job on weekends or something like that. Either Security man or pirate, dont remember...

You should always proofread carefully to make sure you didn't any words out.

Need help? pm me or any other mod.

Apparently not. :lol:

Having said that though, he is building this game from the ground up. Much of what happens we probably don't even see on the surface level.

I can understand not wanting others to help with coding but why not get some help from the modding community for the graphic's art, im sure there would be a few people willing to lend a hand free of charge just to help speed things along.

I have some experience with photoshop as im sure others do aswell and would love to help in my out in my spare time if i can 8-)

I love this game and anything that is added would be just awesome!

Also, when it comes to getting the community to help, there are legal issues to consider when making a game that is to be sold. If he gets someone to "help" with graphics and what not they, at any time after their work is added to the game, could file a law suit claiming partial ownership of the game. I don't think he wants to lose his baby. I think I read somewhere that he might be paying someone to do that at a later date, in which case he will have employed someone for a specific service under a contract of some type, and would not have to share his work.

I'd really like to see the sleeping, etc. in Kenshi. It'd be nice to have an ability to set up camp or something too. Maybe a bedroll? ;)
