| # Maintainer Meeting (30 Dec 2023) | ||
|
|
||
| **Time:** 30 Dec 2023 18:00 UTC | ||
|
|
||
| **Attendees:** | ||
| - DrSmugleaf | ||
| - EmoGarbage | ||
| - Lank | ||
| - Bhijn | ||
| - Jezithyr | ||
| - PJB | ||
| - ElectroSR | ||
|
|
||
| ## Replace reagent id strings with the reagent prototype | ElectroSR | ||
| - This is to avoid having to constantly fetch the prototypes whenever solutions are modified, which becomes important if we add more properties like boiling/freezing. | ||
| - Note that solutions already don't support prototype reloading for things like heat capacities. | ||
| - **When Electro (or smug) codes it** | ||
|
|
||
| ## Making discussions not shorten my lifespan by several years | EmoGarbage | ||
| Discussions have gotten unquestionably worse and it makes me hate doing them ever. shit blows! poorly! low quality sloppy! | ||
| - Do we needback #bugs-feedback | ||
| - Low-entry cost leads to low interest and lack of investment in discussions | ||
| - Too fast-paced to actually manage any kind of sane discussion | ||
| - Derails hard and frequently turns into circular discussions | ||
| - Keeping balance issues / suggestions / feature requests in github issues | ||
| - People occasionally suggest controversial balance changes as github issues | ||
| - These issues fly under the radar until someone makes a PR pointing at some random github issue that no one has given a look at | ||
| - Getting reliable feedback | ||
| - Discussions devolve into pointless hearsay because we don't have good sources of info | ||
| - Consider having some way for maints/admins/PMs to call upon the hordes to gather info in a timely manner | ||
| - Consider querying admins for relevant in-game observations on topic | ||
| - Can we get a private shared maint/admin channel i beg of you | ||
| - Organizing feedback | ||
| - Secondary forums channel for compiling feedback on topics | ||
| - Consider limiting to contributors or implement 30 second slowmode | ||
| - Actually implement some decently high standards of discussion so it isn't just someone dropping in to say something sucks | ||
| - Half the time i pop in to check out a thread the criticism is so vague that it literally just amounts to "remove all the changes" and you literally can glean 0 info out of it | ||
| - Consider having some time limit on these so we can cut them off when they're still useful and get info out of them | ||
| - **Need a better way to get selective feedback (such as from admins)** | ||
| - **Round end survey** | ||
| - **Have GitHub issues only represent things we actively want** | ||
| - **Also check staff discord perms for #bugs-feedback** | ||
|
|
||
| ## Do we add a new ComponentShutdownNoEntityShutdown event | metalgearsloth | ||
| - **When someone codes it** | ||
| - Make it not a pain in the ass to use without code duplication (demonstrate how it would be used) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Cross-Server design | EmoGarbage | ||
| Mostly applies to MRP: players get upset when features designed for one mode aren't made with considerations for another. | ||
| - Features are primarily designed for LRP and frequently have little consideration of Space Law | ||
| - Gamemodes rely on mechanics like murder to trigger early round ends | ||
| - Higher skill-level servers stomp some antags because the balancing occurs on servers with lower average skill | ||
|
|
||
| Content that has caused issues between LRP/MRP: | ||
| - Revs and when the round should end (all are executed vs continuing the round) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Early Access Roadmap | ||
| - **nothing on this roadmap matters except early access trailer.** | ||
| - A trailer for Steam | ||
| - ask enrico about the trailer | ||
| - [**game admin items**](https://github.com/space-wizards/space-station-14/issues/23246) | ||
| - [chat filter](https://github.com/space-wizards/space-station-14/issues/17313) | ||
| - [rp whitelist automation](https://github.com/space-wizards/space-station-14/issues/23245) | ||
| - gamemodes/antags | ||
| - dynamic [c#16548](https://github.com/space-wizards/space-station-14/pull/16548) | ||
| - wizard | ||
| - Steam account linking | ||
| - The game runs like shit how do people play this | ||
| - "IDK but maybe when I fix the watchdog you can figure it out easier" | 09/09/2023 | ||
| - "I only played VRChat since last time and VRChat runs like shit so I don't know how people play this" | 23/09/2023 | ||
| - "" | 21/10/2023 | ||
| - Miros runs fine | 16/12/2023 | ||
| - I am 5 parallel universes ahead of you | ||
| - We have a new Minecraft server it runs fine now (SS14 runs fine, really) | ||
|
|
||
| Crashes / Critical bugs: (when are we moving these to GitHub) | ||
| - Crashes the server reliably. | ||
| - Something that bricks your client often (needs a client restart). | ||
| - Example: Blackscreens the client until you reconnect. | ||
| - If something ruins the round and is disabled because of it. | ||
| - Example: Communal lung bug. | ||
