What a month it has been. Almost 30 tickets in the bug tracker resolved which included: five new or updated resources, and countless bug fixes. Two of those updated resources were revamped headquarters for the Police and the Hellraisers. The quarry, also, was remade from scratch to be better and multipurpose. The event system was expanded to include many new features and include the quarry as an event. Dr.PhillyBlunt reworked the Headlight color resource with an interface based on a mockup I made, of which he did an excellent job implementing. While all of these things were occurring, we moved forward and began development of WCG 2.1. This isn't the 'new' WCG we've talked about, but rather our inbetween state.
In developing, there were also some small changes and some major changes done to the server. The bank system was upgraded and the atms were repaired. Real drive-by was modified to remove the ability to drive-by while parked. Admins gained new features as well, such as a vehicle locator which highlights abandoned vehicles on the radar and F11 map. Super moderators and up gained the ability to start an event for a custom duration. They also gained a version of park that prevents them from dying, which is helpful for when observing troublesome areas in server.
