¶ Project Summary
Vector Expanse is rolling out in several major updates with intermittent patches.
The plan as it stands currently is:
- Develop the virtual world features allowing players to own land chunks, upload 3D models, sounds, etc. as-well-as the ability to script their in-world creations.
- Roll out the point-to-point live portal system.
- Then we will begin working on adding Mobs which will be various neutral and hostile creatures.

¶ Behind the Scenes
This is what working with four monitors looks like!
Starting with top left monitor we have Putty SSH window to manage the server, then we have WinSCP connected over SSH to same server. Top right monitor we have Unity Editor running local development copy of the cluster server. Next on bottom left we have Atom as my IDE of choice complete with Unity auto complete, and finally bottom right monitor we have Unity Editor running the game client.
