I've been working on a new RPG for some time now, and I have an idea for a client that would fit to the genre of the game and would help game players by including various types of info. I was just wondering if there have been any movement towards game creator designed clients? Or are there any plans for them in later versions?

It's been requested a while ago, but it's not going to happen any time soon...

BYOND is working on a stability phase, and once the existant features are done, and some new people are flowing in, they'll add new features as test versions to people who want to continue testing. Public releases of features won't be made until the test versions are as stable as the working version.

Anyway, that's how I interpret things are going to happen soon.

I still think it would be best to make a library for c++ or something so people could completely program their own clients.

Perhaps...but that would be about 10 times more complex than anything in BYOND so far, and people have a hard enough time learning what is there...
