We have heard nothing about POI turrets capable of targeting players. If there was any such thing, however, then this sort of thing can be done as a mod. This interaction system that shawn described will lead to some very creative POIs from the modding community, I bet.

True...true...but I can tell you that I have heard Lathan, Rick, and Joel all remark that it is time for dev streams to start up again. They are ready to start showing stuff so this time soon really does mean soon.

That is you fueling the train with naivety-oil. All of those names are extremely glass-half-full kind of gentlemen, and two and a half of them are bold in their statements. Or may I say bald?  :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:   

PD: Have you played a20 lately? It would be cool that you mentioned your personal view on the state of the alpha. A penny for you thoughts.

 
So what are the things you all are most looking forward to in the upcoming dev stream? I’m looking forward to more details on the new gear progression myself.

Shape system. Random gen too, to some extent, but we got a fair amount of information about it, to be honest. What I really want is to generate worlds myself! 😂

 
So, I tried to figure out the release date for A20 experimental. Coming from facebook, I managed to count (hopefully right) that there were 7-8 developer streams for A19.

We know now that the developer streams will be weekly. So let's say there will be 7 streams which gives us the date for 20th of october. We also know A20 will be released on monday, so the soonest possible date is 25th of october. But personally  I think there might be 8 streams and A20 will be released 1th of november, right after halloween, it sounds much better. Guess we will have to wait and see :)

Nice calculations  but remember Matthew 25, verse 13: "13“Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour ...

And people have guessed in the past and when the date came and went it lead to an event known as the Great Disappointment.

One lesson we can really learn from the Mayans: They really didn't know @%$# about making calendars...

Actually, I wasn't talking about the Mayans. Or maybe I missed your joke?

Anyway, I was referring to a Christian group now known as the Millerites that made big waves in 1844 because someone had worked out based on scriptures that was the day Jesus would return. It was a pretty big thing in those days and they made a big nuisance of themselves with their beliefs, so I'd say the majority of people would have known what they believed.  As you can see, He didn't return then. And that then lead this group into the Great Disappointment. 

But I couldn't resist to throw some comparisons to their great disappointment and when we've had expectations the new Alpha will be released and wasn't.

System.Random rnd = new System.Random();

int currentYear = 2021;
int randomYear = rnd.Next(0, 10);
int releaseDay = rnd.Next(1, 30);
int releaseMonth = rnd.Next(1, 12);
int releaseYear = currentYear + randomYear;

Log.Out("Release Date: " + releaseDay + "-" + releaseMonth "-" + releaseYear);



There's your RNG release date generator. Feel free to use it. ;)
