Re: New Official Client Unveiled for Testing!
Exactly! This is the thing I've basically been waiting to see happen since promotion became a serious undertaking. More and more of the world is now supported by the magic map, and nearly all of the "newbie experience" is there.Kiara wrote:This addition suddenly makes the game a gazillion times more promotable!!!
So ... do go promote if you've been waiting to do so.

Mmmmmm ... pie ...
Re: New Official Client Unveiled for Testing!
A tiny suggestion! Well, okay, two.
When you "quit" you're kinda stuck and need to refresh the browser, or close/restart to be able to connect again. How about adding a small "reconnect" button when you quit? Or maybe a reconnect/disconnect button thats always there, so you can linkdie without closing the window?
And, I noticed sometimes when you click on another window, like another website or another program you have running, and then return to the Genesis client window, sometimes the text window is no longer marked. So you start typing and nothing happens... and you have to click that text area again. It seems to work most of the time though... but not always. So... maybe it can be fixed so that the text area is always, no matter what, active when you return to the Genesis browser window?
I am using a Mac with Chrome by the way, if that information is useful.
Pretty small details I know! But well, you wanted feedback, and it would be helpful and remove two small annoyances!

Re: New Official Client Unveiled for Testing!
The new client looks pretty good. Impressive work!
One thing I noticed was some weird formatting of the actual page. I've taken a screenshot of it, and you can see it in the map and chat window, with the line going across the text and the bottom scrollbar, that persists, even if I expand the browser window horizontally - only the main text field gets wider, the scrollbar doesn't disappear.
There are also a few immediate things I miss when I compare it to my ancient zMud client:
Still it's pretty spiffy, and certainly holds much promise - and now the magic map is really becoming useful.

There are also a few immediate things I miss when I compare it to my ancient zMud client:
- paths
- green text
- colour-coding text in general
- programmable keys (numpad for in/out)
- input field - put in a letter then press up-arrow to get the last line typed that starts with the letter
Still it's pretty spiffy, and certainly holds much promise - and now the magic map is really becoming useful.

I'm using Win7, Firefox 23.0.1. Maybe that's what's making it look weird?Kiara wrote:Makfly: It doesnt look that way for me, it looks like it should!

Makfly: Maybe, on Mac Lion with Chrome it looks like it should.
However on Safari it doesnt work. At all. I can maybe add a screenshot later, gotta go now! But well... uh, it just looks completely messed up, and it doesnt even connect. All I get is black empty windows on top of the background, the black windows are all the wrong size and have a height of like one inch... and no text at all.

Re: New Official Client Unveiled for Testing!
For Chrome users the client can now be installed as a Chrome App.

Re: New Official Client Unveiled for Testing!
I've added the various suggestions to the wish list, so far they all seem reasonable requests.

Amazing job guys, seriously, bravo!
Love that triggers can be written in javascript.
Can we import/export triggers?
This seems like the sort of project that could be put on GitHub and open-sourced to the community. Any chance that will happen?
