Re: Facebook page for Pioneer

Maybe it'll encourage you to learn then :)

If you want to do it, you have my blessing. Not that you need it, but if that's useful to you, its yours!

Weekend project: Better model pattern colour selection

A project for you, not for me :) The current pattern colour selector tries to produce colours that are complementary. It does ok, but not great. Its one of those little things that I've been meaning to improve for a while but there's always bigger things to take care of first. Anyway, I saw this tod...

Re: Facebook page for Pioneer

I do own a Facebook page, but I never set it up or advertised it. I personally don't like Facebook particularly much, and just barely tolerate it for a few friends that aren't anywhere else. I'm happy to hand it over to you if you want it (or delete it and you can set your own up), but I'd advise yo...

Re: Are there any plans to make Pioneer online multiplayer?

The problems have always been synchronizing elements in a sensible way so that time acceleration doesn't contradict the ability for two or more online players to sensibly interact. Realtime multiplayer is not happening. Its been discussed to death and is one of the few hard scope rules we have. Its...

Re: Are there any plans to make Pioneer online multiplayer?

Oh, btw, I have a HTTP/JSON client written and sitting on a branch. I haven't gotten around to pushing it to master because we don't have a server component to go with it. If anyone is interested in working on the server-side for anything like this, let me know and I'll get it cleaned up and pushed.

Re: Crosshair cursor

Thanks Robn\, - might be a handy function? Definitely. I'd also like to bind it a bit more deeply into the UI itself. Rather than hooking onMouseOver/onMouseOut and switching the cursor, I'd like to make it so that you could set a cursor for a particular UI widget and it would automatically switch ...
