Advancing towards a graphical UI, SERF is being updated with a simple reusable gfx layer dubbed “Oryx-UI”. Implementation goes on.
I also corrected a small but kind of stopper bug, which won’t allow people to travel back into Spain 
may be it’s worth a release.

Gathered around the pillar

Let me know what you do think! there are still a lot of thing to do, but I think I will switch projects for a while

A simple shoutbox (Yellbox) has been implemented; it wasn’t too complex using JQuery!
One thing left to enhance would be checking for the last update time, in order to save bandwidth. (later, i’m tired 
)
Will release tomorrow!
We chat around the pillar

Phew! At last I implemented Battle Suppressors, so that there can be safe zones where your expeditions are protected from evil players
The Pillar protects us
The world data model scares me… I wonder how it will work when a big scale world is deployed…
I also feel I’m a bit stranded about the purpose of pixal… going full scale with an extensive world seems overkill! May be I must go to the basics, fighting and stuff… I must really implement item depreciation and reduce the inflation caused by the tournament prizes…
Anyhow, must just add chat to complete what was planned for v0.1.16 and rest for a while… Expedition needs some attention, then CastlevaniaRL

This is a roadmap of things to come… and I didn’t even include the gigantic list of RFE’s from the mantis repo.
Right now I don’t know what will happen… I feel like there’s so much work to be done, yet I’d like to just step forward, finish the project and dedicate my time to other things… I need a partner in action so that we can build this together!

Seems like I autoincreased the time spent by 300 days, just one dev day before the second pixal birthday. Sorry about the misinformation!
I was suspicious about such a high day count! I’m glad to see a more real number now.
