WorldForge Meeting Summary

A new meeting summary is out from the WorldForge game developers. "In an effort to keep tri-weekly meetings a meeting was held (on IRC) saturday 2006-09-23, the meeting summary can be found below. The main point on the agenda was how easy it is for newcomers to join. Website, editing/content toolchain and coordination was discussed."

In other WorldForge news, the project has added movement to the virtual world. "This would seem like a basic feature that would have been present years ago, but for some reason it never made it into the code. But now it’s finally there."

Note that although this "might seem like a basic feature", many MMO games do without it altogether or have a very simplistc compromise.

e.g. World of Warcraft doesn't have moveable objects, and players can't even put objects back into the world once they are carrying them.
