Aren't we a bit overdue for a new build?

It's been over a month... A little update would be nice... Maybe a new VP or SCP build.

In short, No.

In previous months, since speed picked up in the SCP, there has been a new build every week or so and each coder had two or three builds specificly made to test one feature and nothing else.  It is easy to see how someone would fall behind, that is unless you are an uber-SCP-nut.  Such is my (and im willing to bet others) case, so the team took a break after making one 'best of' build.  I see this as a way to let everyone catch up and really experience what the SCP has to offer.

They're in a code Freeze bugfixing for 3.6, which will be the next major, and hopefully the closest to bugfree, release. Until then, patience young padawan :)

Shush!  They are bug-quashing and optimizing.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

Can't we at least get a new (unofficial) release with all the bug fixes you've made so far?

There have not been any significant changes since the last build. Actually, I think only one or two bugfixes have been committed. Hence, we're not going to release a build just to get the same bug reports as we did last round.

Just make a stable build at last. Spend more time testing it.
The only stable build I have ever seen was the build which was only working with horses all around.

We're trying, but we also need a couple of dedicated testers who would put in some real hours doing it. Right now we're relying on the community to catch most of the bugs, and it's difficult because the bug reports are generally very vague and incomplete.

Do you mean bugzilla? I got scared away by 'bug numbers' and 'bug type' and complicated things like that. Otherwise the bug I wanted to report did not belong to any of the cathegories which were mentioned. So I gave up using it.

Bugzilla has been retired in favor of Mantis, which was announced a few weeks ago.  (See the stickied thread.) Mantis is much more user-friendly. :nod:

Tis indeed. Though maybe it needs fields for system specs - or are we meant to be typing out our specs when we report those nasty bugsies?

you can add your specs in your profile, so a coder can view them for each bug you report, without you retyping each time.  IIRC, AFAIK.
