False alarm

[LefsFlare]

Just to put it out there to those who are busy hoping for an update from the creator. I have bad news for all of you. Dark, also known as Robbin was part of a fatal car accident. He will be forever remembered by his family and friends. The culprit is still at large.

I am very sorry to hear this, LefsFlare!

[PixelKitsune]

Where did you hear this?

[Unihedro]

@sk8er92749: DarkStorm is watching the repository and gets email notifications for every ticket, so if it's not true he would be replying by now...

[PixelKitsune]

He never responds to tickets anymore though. I'm not sure if LefsFlare is messing with us or not :/

[DarkStorm652]

Damit LefsFlare. 😠

Sorry for the inactivity on this project, guys. Minecraft updates are quite the time commitment and I've been busy with school 😢 It's also not very motivating that many tasks stop functioning between updates. I will devote myself to making at least one update each week, starting with an update to 1.8!

[Unihedro]

^^^^^^^ aha

[LefsFlare]

It worked didn't it? Don't blame me for drastic measures.

[DarkStorm652]

I can do it this time!

[PixelKitsune]

@DarkStorm652 good luck!

[PixelKitsune]

@DarkStorm652 So about the updates, will it be weekly updates that'll be progress to the 1.8 update or a full 1.8 update tomorrow?

[DarkStorm652]

Progress towards 1.8 in the development branch. It should not take long, but I've made a few significant breakthroughs in the design of a new Minecraft swarm intelligence system that I'm going to start working on at the same time. (That project will eventually replace this one.)

[PixelKitsune]

Alright. Glad you're back dude.

[InternetPerson]

@DarkStorm652 you're not updating this are you? :l

[InternetPerson]

@TheBiblMan wow, that's a very very large issue!

[DarkStorm652]

@InternetPerson it's support for slabs, stairs, and entity velocities and much improved movement all in one

[PixelKitsune]

So when will Darkstorm figure out how to activate the minceraft?

Edit: replied right as I posted this xD

[InternetPerson]

well for now can you add support for plugins that modify network packets until you're finished updating it?

these plugins for example don't work with darkbot

[DarkStorm652]

I'll look into it, thanks for pointing it out. Submit a separate issue for bookkeeping purposes, please!

[InternetPerson]

would be nice to have that until you update darkbot to 1.8 and okay I will

[InternetPerson]

@TheBiblMan no thanks ;)

[DarkStorm652]

You can test out an alpha version of velocity-based motion: a5ad4a0

Just do a quick git clone --branch development https://github.com/DarkStorm652/DarkBot and ant and run DarkBot.jar
