NEW PLANET CODE ALMOST DONE

by Hazed

It’s a running joke that when Alan works on something for Fed, it’ll be finished in “two weeks” – or failing that, “by Christmas”. Of course, which Christmas is never specified!

I am delighted to be able to tell you that Alan has almost finished the new planet auto-link code, and it will be put into the game at some point in the next two weeks, so I can tell you all about how it works when the Star returns from its break.

Meanwhile in the real world, this Dilbert cartoon gives another interpretation of when a software project will be finished: http://dilbert.com/strip/2017-10-02

I hope Alan never learns to lie about his progress…
