What Is Bubble Allegedly Working On

• Localisation
  • Client side changes done
  • Server needs testing, as test server was down at the time

• Sequencer
  • Adding emotes - done
  • Using power animations as emotes - done
  • Documenting the sequencer properly
  • Adding a new power animation to an existing power
    • I found alternate sequencers in the PFX files, find how the UI points to these

• Mastermind Pets
  • This is probably heavily buried in power code somewhere
  • Know where all the power defs are, how do we make the power summon based on a flag
  • Can we reuse the UI system that works for selecting a different animation in the PFX?

• NPC Costume Parts for PCs
  • Already have them all in a spreadsheet
    • Parsed the 2500 defs with one of my VB programs
  • Need to manually add them into the CTM files for testing to see what works
  • Or shall I just write an excel to CTM converter and throw them all in at once
  • Maybe, I am that crazy
  • Have already proof of concepted this, adding files to the CTM lets me add them to my characters
  • I was that crazy
  • >7000 parts were put into 230 ctm include files, then manually spliced into the main ctms and binned
  • The Great Processing is underway, currently just shy of 3000 parts have been checked by me and other volunteers
  • Next steps:
    • remove all the ones marked as invalid
    • group the others into the correct categories
    • add SKU and make a new product catalog
    • prep bins and piggs for release as a server mod
  • Add spider parts to non VEATs

• Adding new items to SG bases
  • Wrote a program, parsed the entire object library and added it to the base editor (~69,000 items)
  • Some items crash the client, some don't seem to have geometry, everything needs sorting, naming and categorising
    • eg removing geos that relate to costume parts (except maybe helmets)
    • classifying as floor/wall/ceiling
    • deciding if they are active or decorative (eg new generators)
  • Adding NPCs is easy, its literally built into the editor already, need to see how far we can push this
  • Adding modular mission map rooms sort of works, but lots of issues to look into
  • We can however probably add all the individual parts that go into these rooms, to allow them to be built by hand
  • Should probably add server config options:
    • disablePrestige - defaults to 0, when set to 1 base editor ignores prestige costs
    • disableRaidChecks - defaults to 0, when set to 1 base editor allows building in doorways, allows blocking-in items that the editor thinks must have a clear path to, etc
