Virtual containers ARE possible.
It’s not quite working yet, but I’m closing in on it: Containers that can be opened anywhere in the world, from multiple locations, by multiple players at the same time. This will be the framework for cross-account vaults, guild vaults, stuff like that. Cross-account vaults, the test case for the technology, are 90% working. That means that as the system stands, once I fix the last bug (I expect to do so by lunch tomorrow), you will be able to open your account vault on one character, open it on another character in another city at the same time, and drop something in and see it dropped from the other side.
I know, your eyes are glazing over, but to RunUO developers this is awesome stuff.
Once that’s good to go, it should be about time for the first major publish of dev month. I’ll see about posting a preliminary change log here tomorrow.
A reminder, the dev drive is only paid up (at the moment) until the 19th. I really want to get everything I have planned in, but that’s just not going to cut it. Don’t make me triage cool features, pretty please?
This is WarLocke's blog thingy for posting thoughts, teasers, and info on the ongoing development of the official EasyUO freeshard, Alexandria. It's particularly active during dedicated development drives, when he's developing full-time.
