SE4 messenger?

Ruatha · #1 June 11th, 2004, 03:00 AM

Sloow time here at the shrapnel server so I'm going to ask a question.
Is there any interest for including an ICQ type messanger into the SE4 companion.
With voice chat capability.

And should it the be connected to any of the common chat nets such as ICQ or should it be a per-to-peer network for the SE4 companion only?

Any other feature I should include?

(sitting at work 4 am and waiting for more work...)

Gosh, I hate voting the same as everyone else (and I kinda hated the way the choices read because I would never say it that way

)

I don't use any kind of IM tool (now, waiting for Fyron to comment on that...

) but if I did, I wouldn't be using them while doing turns...it takes all my attention just to be competitive without interruptions

.

By the time this thing is done its going to have twice the code and take 9 times the space of SE4...

An interesting idea but why reinvent the wheel?

Are you planning to use the companion for a job application at M$ ?

Ahh, but the next Version 0.8 will be shrinked from current 2500 k to 800 k!
