Why the hell out of anything would you comment on that?

Couldn't I say the same thing about this post.

So here it is

btw the answer to your question is very simple, because I felt like it  

I really like the stairs regardless.

It was so off the topic and unneeded, but I should've expected that, better yet even thats more unneeded but whatever floats your boat.

Read my edit, I got back on topic :p



Off-topic yes( but that's ok here), uneeded no. People need to know the difference.

If I hadn't posted my comment this thread would have died after fp4 post but now it's getting hot with activity and is back on topic now.

Now we need some stairs added in snowtown.

I don't think you fall under the title developer as you don't develop any content(to my knowledge), you're more like a programmer as you program stuff so that it works in-game.

What if I told you, programming is developing.

content

content

Imprint makes levels, coco makes graphics, someone makes ganis, and fp4 makes them work in-game. I guess our definitions of developing the actual content are different.

Content can't be made without scripting. The effort and time that went into flippers/diving/looting was about 10% graphics/ganis and 90% scripting.

The difference is that scripting is the sort of thing players don't see the effect of first-hand. They see new levels, they see graphics, they see ganis... but they don't see scripts. They just see what the effects of scripting. Here, this guy says it best:

I think a better statement is content can't be applied without the scripterrs doing their thing.

When I made my initial post I wast trying to say scripting was less important. I've said many time that scripters have the hardest job in graal, but I don't see them as developers.



There was a thread a while back that made me look this up, so here's the link of the information I found useful.

Why are you able to message your friends on Graal? Because the programmers developed a system that would allow users to connect with one another through PM's and other means.

Why are you able to farm and get Gralats, or do that Pyrat Quest for 1,000 gralats daily? Because the programmers developed both of these systems for the game.

They developed the skeleton of how the game runs and the different functions you can do in that game, the graphics artists and such bring that skeleton to life, making it a complete thing.
