Probably going to move the UI and editor code to Javascript after I'm done with the terrain engine updates. That'll make UI updates way easier.
Right now I'm working on the AMD performance problem. It's a real mess to fix it since the AMD driver completely stalls the pipeline whenever you update a vertex buffer that it's drawing out of. So I have to defer all drawing until I have a full buffer and then issue all the drawing calls after the buffer has been filled while simultaneously replaying all the state changes that happened. Ugh. It's a shame the Linux drivers don't work on Windows since they don't have the problem.
Port the engine to unity/other engine, or release it to the public.

A few people have now said it, and I agree with my bestie Andy <3. No one here has paid for updates like other games. If the update is indeed very large, it might be time to split off for an MXS 2.0 to get additional funding. I'm not sure if funding is an issue for you but it could also provide incentive.
Possibly worth taking it to a poll.

Absolutely, I'd buy this game multiple times over.Boblob801 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 07, 2022 1:10 amA few people have now said it, and I agree with my bestie Andy <3.

I've bought the game twice already, and I'd pay for a third. The decade+ of updates is well worth the small investment.
