I'll drop in my thoughts as well, now that we've been in GCI for about one week :-) GSOC It was an awesome feeling to finally get accepted for GSOC 2016! We applied for a few years and it came down to a numbers game - would there be a slot for us this year? Well 2016 was it! And then the...

This is a super interesting topic, like the other AI one :-) Two quick things I'll add to it: I wrote up a thread on various kinds of automated testing, parts of which might well be prerequisites for machine learning as we'd need better interfaces to the game (such as a "headless client")...

Hi Rylee! Thanks for the intro. Plenty of little art tasks if you're interested. Blocks? Items? Creatures (Blender)? Website / wiki logos and icons?

Belated hey @Patrick Wang :-) Test plans are a new experiment for Terasology, there isn't much to formally research. Pretty much the GCI task (and wiki page) covers what ideas I had. For cooking specifically it would be taking stock of which actual food items and especially recipes we have in...

Nice write-up! I do love the idea of needs and desires being the base of some more advanced AI :-) We've got a few other older AI threads floating around in the forum, like http://forum.terasology.org/threads/three-tier-ai.637 (pretty old at this point) The Pathfinding module has/had a...

Oh we were just talking on IRC and here's your intro! Welcome, officially! :D Mathy stuff is good for coding. And latin club? Neat. As part of world gen over in the Throughout the Ages module serious we had the workings of a procedural plant system that would shuffle the appearance of plants...

User banned for attempted abuse of the GCI program.

C:\ProgramData\Oracle\Java\javapath is a very peculiar path, I've never seen a Java installer suggest anything like that. Usually you get something like C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_111 Was that simply the path you chose to install Java to? What makes it more peculiar is that new...

Welcome! Glad you found your way here, sounds like a good fit. There is a beginner task to create a new block (for which you'll need to set up to run from source) that sounds like it would be a good next step for you :-)

Welcome @paarthmadan ! Glad to have you on board. Feel free to hang out ("idle") on IRC whenever you're around, that's a good way to catch conversation when it picks up and maybe you'll find something interesting is going on :-) Approving your task in the GCI site, any idea what you'd like to...

Hi Henry - are you here for Google Code-In? Have you been on IRC? If you're trying to do the "Intro" task we need a bit more than that, like your actual GitHub account instead of placeholder text :-) What could you see yourself helping out with here? Game code? Docs? Web stuff?

Hey @Egco :) Nice to meet you on IRC earlier. Anything else you can tell us about what you would like to code for Terasology? Have you tried setting up to run from source yet? Edit: You could also apply the template to your intro post if you like: Name: Your name here (real name and/or...

Hi @Dishant and welcome! Nice models on your Instagram, want to make some low-poly creatures like animals, monsters, etc? We need a lot of those :-) To get started on source code check out https://github.com/MovingBlocks/Terasology/wiki/Dev-Setup - there are also some wiki pages on related...

Hey Arjan and welcome! UI tends to be pretty well approachable and we have a nice tutorial to help learn and work the UI framework inside Terasology. If you're part of GCI have you gotten through source setup and claimed a UI task yet? I think there's one in there about making new widgets :-)

Kappa! Welcome. Participating in open source is a great way to get started on an IT career :-) Are you here for GCI and if so have you started on any tasks? Any particular part of code you're more interested in? Let us know if you have questions!

Hi there, welcome, no worries about English we come from all over the world at all levels of skill and language! :-) Think I've seen your name on IRC, although maybe just in the log. It is hard to keep track these days :D Have you gotten started on looking at code or any other interesting...

International Olympiads in Informatics - neat! Have seen you occasionally on IRC already, I hope you'll stick around and help us code all the things! :-)

Heya Zeke, we've already talked some on IRC, but I thought I'd say welcome in here as well :D

Hey there! Feel free to add a bit more detail like your IRC name (TheSavant I believe?), GitHub account, any other stuff like that you might want to share :-) Have you spotted any other tasks in the GCI system that look interesting to you yet?

Hi Darshil, I think I may have seen you in the IRC log now, although I think I missed you? Hopefully will catch you soon! :-) Nice skills, do you have any ideas of specifics you'd like to work on for Terasology?
