Today the team has begun internal beta testing of the new version, the 0.86. It is the first full version of the game.

Testing revealed a couple of hidden flaws in the game’s core – the network engine. Starting tomorrow a big part of it will be rewritten to remedy lag and dissinchronization issues. This unfortunetly will be a lot of work. That’s all for now. The good news is that we had some fun in multiplayer while it lasted. Game works, except those networking issues, quite nicely and gives a lot of fun. Other good news is that the rewritten part should be a lot less bug prone and should work much better in general, also allowing easier bug fixes later on. So all in all, this is a positive information.
