[Rails-devel] Roadmap for improving User Experience

[Frederick W. <fre...@go...>]

Hi,

in several domains, the rails project has gone far beyond SimTex's
1830. But there are some other domains in which the situation is the
opposite. One is the availability of computer opponents which is only of
minor importance for rails for obvious reasons (the most important being
the lack of complete rule enforcements as a prerequisite).

The other domain where SimTex's 1830 shines is the user experience (UI and
beyond), including the graphics and the music. In my opinion, these parts
of the computer game have a large impact on the fun / athosphere of playing
the game. Therefore, I consider this to be really important, too.

Rails has already moved into this direction by providing the means of
including background maps.

For the future steps into this direction, I have already provided some
feature requests:
- 3460692: svg company tokens/logos
- 3460927: player portraits
- 3454269: background music

What I would like to know is whether/how you (Erik/Stefan/Brett/...) plan
to proceed here.

Regards,
Frederick
