The SE4 companion - Why the long wait?.

Once again, thanks and congrats on the se4 companion. I still get some wierd errors and crashes from time to time and I haven't quite figured out how to drive it, but by luck more than judgement I think it's all properly configured now -I have managed to get it to automatically download & decompress a turn for me, launch the game, then after I play the turn it automatically sent it off to PBW for processing. A complete success.

And I get a little smile every time I get the "new turn has arrived" message as well (and some of the error Messages are worth getting an error for too :-)

I missed this post before DS, made me smile reading it

In the next Version I hope that luck won't be considered a necessary subitem to the program
I hadn't planned on releasing it before it was finished, but I had announced it too much to keep it hanging until the autumn, and I've gotten alot of input from the beta Versions, so it was well worth it.
Now I know how all functions should be coded, just need to put them together in an easy understandable way and finetune them.
I belive 0.8 will be released in late summer early autumn (August?).

Ragnarok and CK > Yes, it did tend to get a bit confusing after everything was added on it bit by bit without any concious thought of making things easy, but then my motto always are:
-Why make things easy when you can make them so wonderful complicated?

Edit: Download for current beta 0.76 will be up over the weekend, after that it'll be down, so if you want it you'll have to grab it now or wait for 0.8 after the summer.

Another screenshot.. Critique and ideas on UI are welcome
