Hey!
And what good would that do???
Then you would have an up-to-date-client and no server to connect to!!!!11one

Also there are many changes on the server side you won\'t even notice. Only when the network protocol/messages that are sent between the clients change, versions become incompatible. This is one of the rather rare occasions, you\'ll survive.

If your not happy get a refund and leave. Either you can do that or you can wait patiently and not yell at the devs. They do a great job

there\'s a sticky post about it:
http://planeshift.oodlz.com/wbboard/thread.php?threadid=13164&boardid=33&page=7

The problem is also that
- many changes were made since the last update, for me (windows) the updater downloaded more than 15 MB
- there\'s only one person there who can maintain/maintains the Mac release (dfryer), and when he alone has to cope with all the changes the other people made, well ... you know :)

Most likely time for an update is in the next 2-3 days.  School is getting busy, and I want to at least try to release a *working* version this time, with a few bugs fixed.

Sorry that you\'re all out in the cold, but until we have a fairly automatic process for preparing updates there may be some delays.

Thanks,
Daniel

Do we normaly give dates/times when something is done? (The answer is no if you can\'t figure it out)
