    Suggested New background image(s)

    I'd like to suggest using a different background image or even a set of images. The different menu screen headings are currently hardly visible due to the bright clouds in the background. A few thoughts: a) Make the heading font darker - doesn't look good with text shadows d) Use...

    Request for code: Dialog editor

    With the new Dialogs module players can talk to world NPCs such as minions and L&S entities. To make it easier for content creators, a dialog editor would be helpful imho. It should provide an intuitive GUI for non-computer-experts to write funny/interesting/storytelling dialogs for different...

    Request for module: Teleporters!

    In Light & Shadow, there's a floating platform where you spawn until you've picked a team to join. This platform is part of the usual world (obviously). Once you've picked your team, you need to get killed so you'd respawn in either a light or shadow town. I think that it would be way cooler...

    Request I can haz mesh normals?

    I have this mesh of a question mark that I'd like to use. It was created from the Noto Sans font and extruded using Blender. See this image for an illustration. However, it does not have normals.

    Suggested Javadoc HTML for Modding API only

    Design Do some Fund-raising?

    Afaik, @Cervator pays for the the web hosting services we currently use. This covers the website, Jenkins, Weblate, Artifactory, etc. I think it would be great if this cost could be reduced or even completely covered by (regular) funding on a donation basis. One short-term goal (and a personal...

    Suggested Collect graphics assets in a dedicated repository

    Currently, all kinds of graphic assets exist, but they are scattered in the forum. Similar to the request for a centralized screenshot/video collection, I suggest to collect graphics/art/concept drawings in an easily accessible place. Things I would hope for in such a repo: Gooey in all...

    Align generated regions at custom bounds?

    Hi, I have the following problem and could need some inspiration on how to approach it best. PolyWorld generates terrain information in large chunks (512 x 512 blocks called sectors) but at a coarse level. When integrated in WorldProvider's generating strategy, it needs to provide information...

    Release "Alpha"

    The title already says it: I think we should get out "Alpha" asap. Why? Imho, the overall state of the game is far beyond "pre-alpha", but the outside world might not see the progress we're making. Upgrading version helps us showing that things are mature enough for sandboxing. We can even...

    Setup a proper Terasology game server instance

    Hi, I was wondering if it would (be fun/make sense/help with debugging/bring real user base/bring other benefits) if we had a (headless) TS server instance running somewhere. It could be triggered by Jenkins: whenever a a new commit comes in, Jenkins compiles and builds the latest version...
