[Arianne-announce] Stendhal 0.10 released

[Miguel A. B. L. <mig...@ho...>]

Greetings,

A new release of Stendhal have just happened.
About: Stendhal is a multiplayer online adventure game inspired by 
Worldforge's Acorn with a Zelda series style. It is a typical online RPG 
where you can walk around, chat with people, buy and sell items, and kill 
things.

Changes: This release features a major server and client refactoring, a true 
attack system with true dead for NPC Monsters, added Wolf and improved sheep 
AI and sheep movement and a color game dialog log console. It also optimized 
A* path searching and fixes several minor bugs.

This version of Stendhal is PLAYABLE and lacks only of real RP values and 
eXPerience gain... We are working on it.

Also we have release a new bug fixes version of Marauroa.
About: Marauroa is a multiplayer online game framework server. It uses a 
multithreaded server architecture with a UDP oriented network protocol, a 
MySQL based persistence engine, and a flexible game system. The game system 
is totally expandable and modifiable by game developers and is able to run 
Python scripts defining the game's rules. Marauroa is based on a design 
philosophy called Action/Perception. Marauroa is totally game agnostic and 
makes very little assumptions about what are you trying to do, allowing a 
great freedom to create any game type.

Changes: Fixed a bug that make clients not to notice of timeout players and 
improved speed by making conditional logging on NetworkClientManager

New exciting changes are going to come in next releases of Stendhal. Keep 
tuned.

Regards,
Miguel
