Just to add, as a special bonus and thank you to those that help test this out, I am throwing in a bonus single player map that has not yet been publically released.

I am currently testing a new public build locally. Provided no problems crop up, I will post a link to it and instructions on how to install it tonight/early morning via pm to all those that have expressed an interest.

if you would like to help stress test this build IN ORDER TO ALLOW US TO ISSUE IT PRIOR TO THE CAMPAIGN START please volunteer here now!

Sounds like a plan to me. Good work with this Twigs, hopefully I'll have enough time to take a break from marking and get some testing done.

I doubt it will be too late. If we can rouse someone I think we can do it quick enough since most of the changes are cosmetic. What I will do is review the current stack of updates and cherry pick those I think will be most suitable for the mod, then package them in a single update.

This update will then be placed online with some info for those that are willing to test it, we can aim to test it tomorrow night and possibly Thursday night depending on the outcome. Once ratified, I can then pass that on to neko or Impy to hopefully have them process it as an update which would be ready to throw out on Friday, giving people 24 hours to update servers etc.

Sound viable?

Sold. Athough it will be too late for the campaign here We have the potential for this to be a tough slog for Imps. capping slave quarters.

I'll see who I can poke and prod from BI to help out.

To do it, we need testers. No commitments, but just for a week or so some stress testers to really blitz this as hard as we can would be good.
So, want to get this minor bug fix out? Post up to stress test and I'll make a custom group and have it setup to night to get testing asap ready for a patch.

I'd be happy to lend a hand for a bit if you need the support.

Yup, those are the two with access. It's not just Null either, there's some coding to check out that could fix the lambda and sentinel TK punish issue (when someone bails and the pilot gets tk punish), tweaks to co-op Yavin to help with Imp hangar spawns, Mos Espa spawn points to be reverted, plus some other ai/co-op tweaks.

Ah, of course. I forgot only Imp (and Neko?) had the privileges to create public patches. Never mind then.
