xx Revision 8 and a SVN feed

Today at 12:31:24 am by Android Data
Revision 8 has just been released. It contains the first contributions made by Tagert as well as the start of a new admin panel.

Furthermore, you can now get an RSS feed of the SVN server and be instantly notified whenever the main branch is updated. The URL is:
http://www.ss13.net/svnhistory.php

That is all.

xx Welcome to Space Station 13!

July 26, 2010, 06:21:03 pm by Android Data
Welcome to my new site! Space Station 13 Dot Net has a new goal: to become the #1 resource for everything SS13 related.

An "official" branch is hosted via SVN on the same server as this site, free for anyone to access. I'm calling this initiative 'OpenSS13 0.2' and I hope that you'll stick around and provide contributions to improve the game and codebase.

We have several goals in mind for SS13 which we'll try to make happen:
  • As I mentioned, turning ss13.net into the #1 resource for SS13 instead of an assorted collection of sites. I have nothing against people creating their own flavor of SS13 and in fact will provide forum space to those that do in the spirit of centralization.
  • I hope that one day, the branch I'm hosting here will become the most widely used branch of them all. I can't do this without help, so go submit your patches! :)
  • A centralization of administration within SS13 would be a definite positive attribute, as currently it's an anarchy and outsiders don't take kindly to that. I hope to gain the trust of the community and to once and for all put an end to this mess.
  • The website should have some features related to SS13. With this you can think about global medals and scores that apply to trustworthy servers. Profiles and statistics for your characters and "official" servers.
  • To clean up the codebase and polish up the game.

Some of you may be interested in this idea but are unsure as to my credentials and whether or not I should be the person behind it all. To ease things between myself and the community I'm having an open invitation to anyone in good standing that wishes to join development. I hope that through working together we can get things done and that the past can finally be put to rest.

Hoping to see you soon on my forum,
- Data
