Hello,
I have been using PS for sometime now, actually since last Christmas break and I have to say this is awsome for just a tech-demo and I see a good future for PS. As long as the motivation stays up there. However, I have a few questions which I have been very curious about.
First, if I remember right PS is using latest stable Cyrstal Space engine (Correct me if I am wrong). I was wondering if the next release was going to have the same version of the engine or is it going to be using the lastest CVS (which by the CS dev\'s opinion is more stable now) CS engine? I am just curious because I know that they have changed a lot in the CVS and they don\'t even support the last stable release of the CS engine.
Second, I was also very curious on how the developers learned to use the CS engine? Was reading the manual good enough? as well as referencing the API Reference? I am just curious if there is anything else out there that may help. I am asking this because this is going to be my first attempt at actually messing with an engine and I figured CS would be a good one to start with (and because it\'s free). I do have a good C++ background so that\'s no problem and I understand the manual (that which I have read so far). Since this is my first attempt at messing with gaming development I am still a little echy on how to begin something like this. That\'s why I look at the source of Open Source projects like this and learn from what you all have done. My main goal is to become familiar with the engine, and then quite possibly be able to contribute PS, if I am able.
