I'd like to thank all of you who have volunteered to help me bug-squash so far! We've found some good stuff and progress is coming along pretty quickly, I think.
I'd still like to get some more eyes on it, so if you have some time to spare, send me a PM and I'll get you access to the new version! -
Started off as Polaris One, wanted something space-related for my first character. One my of earlier characters (aside from Polaris One) was Sucker-Punch, taken from a song titled "Suckerpunch of the Century" by my friend's band. Pretty boring history I guess.

Quote:Mids integration is definitely in the works. It won't be part of initial launch, but I've been coordinating possibilities with the Mids guys and it's definitely doable.Originally Posted by _dEOS_
Cool.
First feature I can think of: Better integration with Mid's. I'd like to publish my builds from Mid's to SP's Online Planner for everyone to see/use/consume/reuse.
Second feature: Ability to tag/favorite/comment builds I like from other people. After that it's all about # of favs and ranking builds flickr-like
I was going to put the comments feature back in (it's in the old one), but I do like the ability to tag and favorite builds.
Thanks for all the encouragement everyone! So far nothing seems to be majorly broken, it just needs a few more final features to be made public! -

lol...what does the v in veat stand for...?
As for my suggestion, sure, you can choose to plan out a night widow or Fortunata, but until you reach 24, it does you no good. It might be nice to be able to toggle between what you have to pick the first time, and then what it will look like after you respec at 24. Just a thought.
As for VEAT branching, the way I intend to let you save builds kind of satisfies that in a way I hope people agree with me.
Basically, you'll have a list of "Characters", and then you can assign builds to them, so one character could have many builds associated with it.
The way VEAT selection works is, you can pick from the 3 primaries, so like Wolf Spider, Bane, or Crab, and select powers from each. If you choose Bane or Crab, you see the Wolf powers in addition to the branched powers (like it is in-game).
So I guess the final result would be - You could make a "VEAT" character, and then assign a pre-24, non-specialized build to him, and also assign a post-24 specialized build, and toggle between the two.
I haven't figured out all the details on how to easily view / toggle multiple builds, but it's definitely the goal.
Does any of that make sense? -

Okay, I see. I'm sorry if I bit your head off SP. No hard feelings

Quote:Yep, that's fine. Needing to log into the old planner is not required for this. I know the old planner doesn't work correctly with the Titan Key. That thing is barely alive as it is, which is why I'm working on the new one - which will be fully Key compliant.Originally Posted by Angryellow
Can't log into the planner. And I AM logged into the forums. I can get to any other Titan site but the planner. And as always has been the case by the way.
To further clarify - the ONLY reason you need a key is to log in to the Titan forums and post in the special area I set up there to concentrate the feedback. You don't need to log in to the old Planner, and you won't even need to log in to the new one (yet). -

Does it support branching for heats and veats?
Might be nice to see a before and after 24 plan for the latter...
And if you're asking if you can choose Bane/Crab or Fortunata/Widow, then the answer is yes. -
Quote:Can't log in where? If you're talking about the old Planner, that isn't necessary. You just need to log in to the Titan Forums, as I stated in my OP.Originally Posted by Angryellow
As much as I would love to log in and test it out, I STILL can't log in with my Titan key

Quote:Why would needing a key make it harder? If you want to do anything on the Titan Network you need one anyway, and on top of all that it lets me keep the folks testing it in one central area - namely the Titan Boards.Originally Posted by BrotherMu
Needing a Key makes it harder to test this for you. Why not allow anonymous access?
I mean if you don't want to register a Key I'm not holding that against you, but it's not like I'm asking anything so crazy these days. Titan is pretty huge

Huh, I guess I expected a little more response than none at all.

I think I'm going to go ahead and run a TF tomorrow night, based on feedback from Victory IRC.

Assuming that Issue 16 comes out tomorrow, would there still be interest in running a TF tomorrow night? I won't be offended if interest is low because of the new shinies. We can just pick up next week.

As may or may not be a secret - I've returned to the game after nearly a 9-month sabbatical. Since doing so, I've been hard at work at finally bringing my Online Planner out of the dark ages of Issue 9 and into the bright lights of Issue 16.
I've got this version up to a point where I think getting some extra sets of eyes poking and prodding it for show-stopping bugs would be highly beneficial.
If you have a Titan key and therefore access to the Titan Network message boards, PM me your Titan account info and I'll get you access to the Beta board there and you can get started on testing it out. Don't have a Key? Make one, and let me know your account info! It only takes a minute to register.
With I16 looming, I'd like to get this as polished as possible, as quickly as possible, so your help is immensely appreciated!
Also, please keep in mind - anyone who volunteers for this needs to keep in mind that while this new version should be usable for the most part, it's by no means feature-complete. -
Ok, I don't have all the features in that I want yet, but the core functionality should be pretty usable at this point. I'd like to get some folks in and testing to make sure everything is hunky-dory. Send me a PM here if you're interested in tinkering around and looking for any major bugs that would prevent me from letting more people use it.
With I16 probably coming out this week, I'd like to release it either before or in tandem with it, so finding and squishing the major bugs quickly is a big priority for me. -

Just wanted to pop in and say that the new planner is well under way
(That's a screenshot from an actual working copy, not some design mockup).
Bonus points if you pick out new features based on that screenshot! -
Allow me to be a bit of a tease.
