LST v0.9 development log

Introduction

Okay, I've decided to keep a log of the new developments in the next version of LST, partially so other can see what's going on. There will be a new website along with the new game-mode however, this gonna take a while.

There are several driving factors behind the new version:
♦ Better game-play. As of the old versions of LST, it didn't come into a stable version and had a couple of bugs which were never fixed. I am planning to make a more excited game-play by creating some new mini games and adding some custom maps around LST.

♦ New techniques. In the previous versions of LST, I used some old methods and techniques of code writing which made the game-mode unreadable and quite hard to edit. In the new version of LST, code has been improved by 50%. 

♦ Game-mode layout. Over the past months of LST, the game-mode has become quite large which made it almost impossible to fix bugs and find glitches. This now has been corrected by divining the game-mode in small easy editable peaces of code which made it easier to work on it and edit in any way around.

Improvements

♦ Improved class selection - the old one was quiet of poor in ability to give an impression to players.

♦ More minigames to come along - simply because LMS was not enough, I decided to add a couple of more attractive minigames.

♦ A better saving system - Yes, I switched from SQLite to MySQL, no I do not make unsecured queries, I've got quite good experience on working with MySQL.

Log

And finally the log. I'll be posting new updates to keep the log up to date, so should you keep yourself up to date.
