Currently working on the card system

This is his response to an exploitable spawn easter eggs that were unveiled weeks after the New Spawn.

You collect cards in game and you redeem it in the website. There, it shows cards you've collected. The rarer you find, better the rewards.

Got a lot done today. I'm really happy with the state of the system right now and I think tomorrow I can actually begin testing the whole thing. But I may also just veg out and play GTAV so we'll see what happens.

The CSLI (Card Scripting Language Interpretor) is almost complete which is the main code hassle right now. Once that is finished I can actually start testing cards in-game, redeeming them and so forth. Then I can start adding the reward code in-game for actually acquiring cards.

I don't want to give any specific date for when this will be finished because I really don't know it depends how much time I have to do it and what else I'm doing (GTAV!!!) but it's like 80% done now and I'm looking forward to making more cards with interesting rewards.

The CSLI is now finished. Redeeming cards works, time left on cards works. http://i.imgur.com/nhRCh2O.png

Here is what is left to do: The code to get cards in-game, add lots more cards to get. And that's it! - It is almost finished.

Some great news today, the card system is finished. BUT before you all freak out shouting "Where do I get the cards!!!!" there is one small issue that I need Adrian to fix. It is a required thing and without it I cannot put the feature live because of security issues (players could very easily cheat).

Sadly I didn't notice this issue previously as it only came to my attention today during the final phase of testing but hopefully we can get it fixed quickly.

[Dagstaff]

Awesome! Are there details posted yet about how the card system works?

[Pri]

Not yet but I will post that after we fix this bug. I'll have detailed information on how to find cards
