Quick update for Jack

Added 2018-11-26 23:34:46 +0000 UTC

Just giving a heads-up, this week's content update is on Jack... He's gotten younger (late teens and early twenties) and Taller, up to 5'10". You'll see him in game unless you've already past this point, then' you'll see him next time you start over.

On the coding front, Good news: The A8 code re-write compiles!

There is still plenty of regression testing and other QA matters to deal with before you guys get to try it but that's a good step forward as it already seems to solve some performance issues and reduce the flickering some more. (fewer calls to the database, less unoptimized looping)

But the prize is what's coming after that: dynamic dialogs. Yes, the topics and dialog lines will be different based on character comparisons. Let's say Olivia is a head taller than Oliver, she might find a new nickname for him... If Ava grows bigger muscles than Jack she might have some not so respectful comments to pass along... and so on.

Also, its only a few days until you all get colonial cousins part 3, so that qualifies as good news too, if you enjoy stories about a planet populated with amazons...

Ciao!
