You tell `em Oleg! :)

Thank you for posting this ;) But what does 'we are rebuilding version' mean?! :D Is this a joke? :P

I think he means that they are putting together a new version of the game - including new features, updated code and so on.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad. Will it affect time scale?

Pretty sure that is from the 10 min short film called "The German" I put questions up on simhq about it. I'm Hackl in there.

Almost certainly just a normal part of the development process. Most likely, they try to create a 'stable' compile of the software every so often, and then updates to separate parts are tested with this. Every so often, they need to incorporate the changes into a new compile - the 'rebuild' that Oleg refers to. If you try to continually incorporate all changes into your development compile, you can end up with hard-to-track-down conflicts, problems with testing, and much else.

Of course, he could mean he's starting again from scratch.:wink:

Putting together new versions of a software internally is a pretty normal process and very important. On this way you can assure that every part of the application is working and more important is working together as a unit.
The other way round would be the "big bang integration". Wait to the very end, put everything together and see what happens - most time nothing works at all and the project is delayed by months, years or is aborted ;)

Great news, thanks chaps ;)

Correct. Updating version and this means we put together new source code that was developed in parallel by different members of a team. And this means that not always all is going well from the first attempt. Its normal development process.

Correct :)
