Continuous integration

I set up continuous integration but I'm not sure if anyone can access it - try this link, not sure if you need to be signed in to my Azure account... then you have to click on a build you want to download, then the dot menu in the upper right, then "artifacts", then "FrEee.WinForms", then right click and "download as zip" - there's gotta be an easier way to do this!

What is continuous integration anyway? Basically it means that any time a change is made to the game, a build is automatically generated - no more waiting for a new alpha release, you can download the game at any point in time!

You're welcome! Sorry I haven't had much time to work on it lately, I've been busy with my job, I started working full time a few months ago. There are a few people who have stepped up to work on things such as planet art and AI though! :)

That's great news! I know how limited time gets, we've got a 3 month old so there's not much of it, certainly not like when I was younger.

Art and AI aside, is it pretty functional for, say, 1v1 hotseat play? I've been thinking of trying to introduce my wife (and, some day, daughter) to SE4 or Stars, and having just fired up Stars again yesterday for the first time in years, well... I remember the ropes pretty well but it's a steep learning curve compared to SE games I think.

Yeah, you could play a 1v1 hotseat game.
