Weekly development report: 2020/10/03

Steam Sky
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

The whole week was dedicated to work on the development version of the game. The stable version looks stable... or I'm just blind and don't see obvious bugs :)

  • Finally finished moving the player's ship's crew info to this same screen where other the ship info is. Earlier these information were on a few separated screens. Now it should require less mouse clicks/keyboard actions to get information or set the orders for the selected crew member. Here is how the new crew member info looks and here the new view of a crew member inventory. Still some polishing is required but this will be done later.
  • As usual, some bugs were fixed and some new introduced
  • Under the hood code refactoring and cleanup in this week was very productive. Even by adding the new UI the whole game code was reduced. A new space for new features :)
  • Also the end of the week brings some changes to the project organization: I replaced Travis CI with Github Actions for continuous integration. Now everything is in the one place, also managing it is a bit easier. Unfortunately, the documentation where to find new testing version isn't upgraded yet, should be done in the next week.

And probably the most important information: it is a time for the release a new, shiny (and buggy) development version :) In around 24 hours since this post it will be available on Github releases page.
