I'm starting to get everything ready for test...

I'm starting to get everything ready for testing to begin. I build a little issue tracking application for the site. I'm hoping it keeps the testing insanity to a minimum and encourages testers to help each other out. I'm still not quite to the testing phase, though, so nobody get excited.

I also spent a fair amount of time working on the module itself, polishing up things and adding some new content. Long ago, I put in place a system where you can earn a little money by delivering packages for commoners who wander around the city center. I had planned for an option of simply opening the package, but it wasn't until yesterday that I actually finished it up. Let's just say that there's some odd things delivered around town.

I also got the scripting for the Demon Cards tournament ready. Jazael put in all the hooks in his latest update and it was a simple matter of just calling them to see if the player is winning or losing. Speaking of the Demon Cards game, the last AI update had some problems so Jazael is switching gears and taking another approach. Hopefully it'll be ready soon as it's a huge update with lots of nice features. People should appreciate it.

I've also been working on getting some other building interiors in the game, mostly for rogues or unsavory players to loot. I have fond memories of wandering around Baldur's Gate and poking around in other people's houses, and I'm hoping to get a similar feel to the place.
