Yeah I owe Gerik 10 info, but I don't mind in the least because I'm so keen to see Datamine go live. I remember 9mmfu saying he wasn't so keen on the place and I have the feeling that was because of all the testing he's gonna have to do in the next week to make sure it works.

Looks sweet. Can't wait. Hopefully the new area is implemented soon. Thanks for all the hard work.

I WANNA DATAMINE IN DATAMINE!! *puts goggles on and waits* /crossarms
I'd think the initial killing frenzy will get in the way of much actual data tapping getting done...
Also: Nice to know it's in working order.

OCD kicking in here.
I have an issue with: You have entered Datamine.
I think it should be: You have entered the Datamine Construct.
This is similar to what it says when you enter the archives: You have entered the Zero One Archive.
Looking forward to this going live! That was a fast work in progress, if I may say so.

He mentioned "epic screens in January" back in November or December; they probably needed to know it would work before even mentioning it. Anyway, I know Ask the Dev is closed, but I hope one of the devs talks about what went into the making of this thing later on.

Lots of hard work around the clock.







You did actually get 9.3 done also, right?

You just made 'Under the Bridge' the official Datamine hang-out spot.

I dont ever want to feel
Like I did that day
Take me to the place I love
Take me all the way
Under the bridge downtown
Underneath the bridge
The tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped
Have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass
And the drippings from the ceiling
It's ok to eat fish
'Cause they don't have any feelings
Something in the way

Aren't trolls supposed to lurk under bridges?

I dunno, ill wait until there's an official announcement made or until its in the patch notes. Theres nothing to state its coming out in the next patch, thats only an assumption
There's always something that could prevent it from going Live, but as it stand right now, it looks like it's ready for next week.

I don't think there are enough benches yet.




Fun! Spot the bug! (And no, not the floating trashcan. I don't think that's my fault, anyway. Hm, I'll have to check on that...once source control comes back up...)



The big bins have two lids each... one open one closed?
It's the direction the arrow's pointing in.
Nahh actually that isn't even a very good picture of it, come to think of it. It's the yellow strip along the bottom of the concrete wall. The strip is part of the parking lot, and it's on the same plane as the wall polygons, so there's an icky z-fighting effect down there--you can really only see it when the camera's moving, though. Isn't a whole lot I can do about it, since the parking lot wasn't built with a lip on it like it really should have had, but I guess I'll fudge it and just stick an extra little bit of wall in down there to cover up the ugly spot.
EDIT: Oh wait, the parking lot must have a lip, it's just exactly as thick as the wall. Bleg.
EDIT 2: Oooh wait, the floating trash can probably is my fault, 'cause I was cutting and pasting those across the island, but the parking lot surface is actually sunk about 10 cm lower than normal ground surfaces. Man, lucky thing I'm so good at finding awesome bugs accidentally. QA's gonna be totally jealous.

It's the arrow! I promise! It's telling people to drive into the metal-fence! Bugggggg!

Thats how they are planning on removing the fence, after awhile enough people will hit it that it will either just fall down and they can haul it away or it will get weak enough that some kid will kick it and it will come crashing down and then they haul it away.

That's the right arrow. Check out other parking lots in the City. They kinda go in> around^ out< .
EDIT: Hmm...I wonder if Rarebit could ever put a surface on the crane that we could jump onto.
