Hey guys. There's been a lot of talk for updates, promotional images (and videos), and even a BETA build - but that can't happen unless The Peloponnesian Wars can get some dedicated, consistently-active team members proficient in the area of coding. The guys we currently have on the team (while great coders in their own right) are very busy in their personal lives and haven't been able to contribute the time necessary to getting this show on the road.

There's two jobs needed immediately for any hopeful coders - the fixing of all current bugs in the ALPHA build, and after that, the adding of all remaining objects and assets to that build.

Feel you're up to it? Shoot me a PM, or post in this topic.

Mike

I dunno .

I would love to help out, but my interest in coding (and consequently, modding) has gone down considerably and I've forgotten much that I knew. How hard would you say the coding work is (skill-wise, ie easy, intermediate, hard, etc.)?

[Mathijs]

Intermediate to hard.

[drogoth232]

It also includes dealing with AI? If so, I'm afraid I can be of no use. I never took the time to learn anything about it.

[Lauri]

Neither did we

AI can wait, what we're really focusing on is bug hunting and getting as much content ingame for the Sparta faction as possible.

[Mathijs]

And AI isn't that hard as far as I can gather.

[Lauri]

What you've gathered is the basis of the AI, which isn't hard.

There is a reason why there hasn't been further work done on the AI

[Mathijs]

I am not good at gathering.

[Kwen]

Yeah, the AI functions, but it's quite primitive and not very... satisfying to beat.

[Mathijs]

Then go and buff it up! Don't you know we have a beta to deliver?

[Rob38]

I may consider helping out. I first like to get the next TEA:CE version completed first though. I'll keep you all updated.

[Lauri]

Thanks for the offer, but I think the God of Irony struck right after mike posted this topic

[Rob38]

Care to explain?

[Mathijs]

He means that he finally found the motivation to get coding again. Personally though, I don't dismiss your offer at all. Definitely keeping it in mind.

[Lauri]

Well you are paranoid Matias, but I see your points

[Mathijs]

Can you blame me?
