Thank you Mehridian, interests will help motivate me to continue working. I will also accept any help people wish to give even in the form of ideas.
Weekly Update: Next week I will be moving back to London, that being said not a lot of work will be done on the mod unfortunately. I'll be moving into a new place as well as starting up a new business and have perhaps even a writing job for another well known Steam game. Until then I will do as much as I can! Update: 07/04/2014 -Thanks to Ramones_fan & xxswatelitexx for their insight and helping me to get past a few walls. 07/04/2014 -Removed Shipwright, Pilot, Force Sensitive User. Added Jedi, Jedi Knight, Jedi Master, Dark Jedi Knight, Dark Jedi Master. It's been so long I had almost forgot what was where, being the three main eras of SWG (PRECU, POSTCU/PRENGE, POSTCU/NGE) things can be confusing, luckily Web Archive still has http://swg.allakhazam.com/db/charbuild.html for character building with the option to choose any day to month to year that the game was running. 08/04/2014 -Artisan Quests completed and nearly debugged (see above), Tables are finished and nearly debugged (see above), Items are finished. 08/04/2014 -Created skillpoints economy, profession certificates and master tokens. 08/04/2014 -Fixed a problem in the modinfo file causing a "Invalid UTF-8 sequence encountered while trying to encode UTF-32 character" error, the game cannot process characters such as "ü". 08/04/2014 -Thanks to severedskullz for his help as well as those mentioned above. 09/04/2014 -Artisan profession completed and debugged. 09/04/2014 -All items and recipes have been removed from the Vanilla and stored in the mod 10/04/2014 -Couldn't be bothered to code today, today was a day of art. New mod icon, parody logos, intro crawl, and main screen logo 11/04/2014 -Integrated the majority of art work into the game (seen below) 12/04/2014 -Was unwell, couldn't even see past my sinuses. Did some design work on progression of professions. I've decided I wont tell the player how to complete a mission; It will be a natural feeling progression depending on their habits, for the elite gamer who only wants to focus their progressions I will include a refund system of gaining back skill points that get spent. 13/04/2014 -Updated this thread, drank wine, felt pleased with myself. Video: Main Screen: Certificate to prove your mastery: Description: "I need these to become a jedi. It almost looks like the front cover of a metal album..." Mod Logo: Mod Folder Icon: This can all be seen on the mod in the mods section as well as a visual explanation of how the skill trees work.
With the new combat system coming to Starbound soon I have focused almost solely on the crafting professions for now, once the two handed knock back system etc. are released I will begin working on Brawler and the advanced professions more. I will release the first beta shortly after this (a week or two) and will begin testing phases including newly made droids!
I have had a broken laptop for nearly 3 weeks. I am now 4 weeks behind on working on this game so I need to push the dates back to 5-6 weeks after the new combat system is released the beta will be ready for testing.
Its all good, seems like the update for combat is taking a bit to come out, just glad to see you are still around!
