Pretty nice proposal, well done! It is probably overly optimistic about what can be achieved in three months - you've got a lot of topics in there. Probably you could move several of them into a stretch goal section. I'd in particular encourage you to move module management in there and...

Tons and tons of feedback has been added to the proposal since last, including some by me right now. Overall the proposal is vastly more realistic now, good job. There are still some assorted quality issues in the various descriptions, but we get the idea of where you're trying to go. One...

Reviewed, and RatMoleRat added in a bunch of comments too :-) I don't want to discourage or make you feel bad here but your proposal has very fundamental problems with it. It still reads far more like a suggestion thread than a GSOC proposal. You need to identify exact things you aim to do and...

More feedback provided :-) Proposal is looking pretty good! It does still feel a little heavy, but maybe some more poking around in code and providing a few early PRs could help reduce uncertainties like that. Appreciate the special attention to try and make the two MR proposals more...

More feedback added! Pretty happy with the proposal overall now, most the remainder is fairly trivial stuff. One sort of remaining meaningful part relates to killing/hitting of players, but I don't doubt that'll be worked out :) Edit: Oh! Stray thought. There is a working "Dominog" creature...

I'm going to try to summarize some discussion on chat, both from Discord and between mentors: Pros for using web stack: Make the launcher more lightweight Avoid troubleshooting JavaFX issues Attract new developers (those more eager about web tech) Integrate with other web sites of ours, like...

Dropped in some feedback on chat. I do like the sharper focus, although the proposal could use a bit more structure / formatting :-) Hard to weigh in on timeline, probably Vampcat or Eviltak would have better ideas there.

Checked again - feel free to post here when there's an update, and maybe a quick summary of what you changed. I had a hard time actually spotting what was different this time around, but the diff page helped. Was expecting timeline and more details - you don't need to hold back on that waiting...

Welcome to the forum! Or the intro forum at least :D

Bump :-) I looked at that proposal a little while ago - @kinshuk are you still out there?

Yeah JavaFX is still a problem child, I'm really curious if there'd be simple options to embed the JRE and avoid that one issue - if that's easy and fixes everything that's been a hassle with JavaFX ... then we're sort of back in business?

Thanks for writing an intro thread! Have a contributor prefix and badge :-) Total War!

Checked on it again! And .. I really have no feedback left after the last few rounds via proposal and chat. Looks good to me, great work! Especially happy that the testing focus made it in, along with Pools. Really at this point I'd just focus on throwing some bits of related code on GitHub to...

Went through it again, still loving those tables :D I think there might be some outdated parts in based on recent discussion and things moving into stretch goals. As a results parts of the timeline seem off, which in turn makes me wonder why the timeline seems able to get through what I predict...

Went over it again, added more feedback :) I still really like your timeline table format, best one this year so far! Still personally reluctant about the very idea of rewriting the launcher in a different language, but that's a personal opinion and one I'm happy to be convinced out of. So...

I added in some feedback, as did RatMoleRat :-) Overall: You're trying to do too much. Try to dig deeper into fewer primary goals. More detailed estimates on fewer items make for a safer proposal to consider. You can always go nuts on stretch goals if you finish faster than expected or want to...

Welcome Raj! Was nice meeting you on Discord. Looking forward to what you come up with :-)

heya @Arihant and thanks for the more cohesive proposal. It sounds well scoped and very doable but just needs a lot more detail, and yes of course the timeline to go with it :-)

Feedback added! A fair amount of it :) Two top level summary recommendations: Waaaaay more specific details and less open-ended or vague bits. A proposal isn't a sort of wish list it is like a requirements document for a project, much like you'd encounter later if you start a career in IT. As...

Good stuff! While both proposals deal with a very wide content area I do feel like they're trending in different directions already and would be able to avoid too much overlap. Here it seems more like an AI focus a la GooKeeper with an interesting world and a lot of background simulation Took a...
