Hey now! I'm the guy who said above, "as a developer who firmly believes in Linus' Law, I appreciate knowing when my code doesn't work", so we're not in total disagreement.Ahruman wrote:Incidentally, I’d like to take this opportunity to disagree with everyone above. Error reports regarding trunk are very welcome
Thargoid makes some good points about aiming OXPs at a moving target, and Eric's comment about timing before/after releases is on point for this thread. I think the key is that what you want are reports of actual bugs, not known incompatibilities introduced by purposeful changes in the code. And by "reports", I don't mean "Waaah, my ship she no fly no more!" NorthenderPNE included actual log messages and a specific build version number; as bug reports go, that's not bad. And I think his heart is in the right place.
I think what we all want is for the game to get better, no? And it has done so steadily over the years, so you guys must be doing something right!
