I think I ran into the same type of thing as MiquelFire.
I wanna make me some bread.

exception 'Exception' with message 'Project type cannot be started at this location' in /home/rpg/www/db/user/Character.php:393 Stack trace:

Will look into this. Semi-white is intentional, but the box needs to be visible. Safari? Chrome?

This is something I really want to resolve in a better way. Gender and a rough indication of age isn't enough, especially when everyone is in their twenties. However, an actual hash would look way too "computery" to be acceptable - while a programmer might appreciate the fact, a "normal" person's role-playing experience would probably be severely impacted if unknown people were auto-named "f4bb1928d9234e" or something. Even "unknown person #23" would be a bit too technical IMO. This is one of the reasons why I thought about adding a face image, based on (random) physical properties - each character would have an individual combination of face and body metrics, hair, skin, and eye color, and a few parameters you could maybe adjust, given the right tools, such as hair and beard style. That image could then be shown in the message list (icon-sized), or it could appear when you hover over a person's name.
In any case, I want to add a (short) description of a person's physical appearance to what is now the name-change popup.

Actually, it's not the same issue. You're getting a stack trace at the same point, that's because I accidentally left a die($ex) there. The exception itself is intentional though; what you're supposed to see is just the message: "Project type cannot be started at this location", which probably means you don't have the required machines for this project. For baking bread, you need an oven, and if all ovens are occupied with projects, you cannot start a new one. Either use the existing project, wait until it finishes, or build another oven. Or, if no ovens exist, build one. I admit that this needs to be handled better, but for now, that's the way it is.

Eating!

This also brings up the topic Animals, when do you think they will come?

Live long projact..

You're right. It's running again now though. Believe it or not, this has something to do with line end conversion. I haven't exactly figured out how and why it happens, but somehow, the line endings in the heartbeat script end up different than what the cronjob handling shell on the server expects, and then it complains that #!/usr/bin/php5^M is not a valid hashbang. I've changed the cronjob now so that it doesn't rely on the hashbang anymore.

Probably not. It might go down in tastiness, but I'm not sure yet.

It will disappear. Although I might make it so that some things can turn into something else when their lifespan exceeds (this will be needed for growing plants anyway: a sapling would turn into a tree after a few years).

Probably yes.

Early industrialisation I would say, maybe around 1850. So no refrigerators, no combustion engines, but horse carriages, coal ovens, sailing ships (possibly steamers, but if so, then really expensive), maybe radio. Definitely no refrigerators, but I'm thinking of other ways to conserve food - making jam, drying, salting and smoking things, that kind of stuff.

I just confirmed that time IS ticking. Just about 3 hours ago, a character reached his destination. Maybe you're carrying a lot of weight? The more you carry, the slower you walk.

It's been almost a week of silence here again. And I must say I've lost the attention I had to the project. The bookmark is still there reminding me about it every day but I don't feel compelled to click it.

It needs a serious boost in features, or this thread will soon die.

I'm still playing, haven't seen anyone in a while but I got some salmon and I'm gonna try to bake a pie or something .

I stopped playing some time ago, after I could no longer log in (just says login failed, and I am using my forum username and the password I always used for the game (I changed it, so perhaps it somehow reverted to the default? I don't think I've tried that one)).

Certainly making it at least a two man show would be a good idea.
Does the project have an IRC channel yet? That'd be a quicker medium for people who are really interested to discuss more specific things.

I'd really like to contribute, but since I'm not a web developer I have a hard time getting going...

That would be nice.

One thing I thought about is that you seem to have made each resource and certain projects bound to location types. Like all forest locations has berries.

Will there be different types of forest, or do you think specific locations could have resources that aren't available in other locations of the same type?
