Unfortunately, we've hit a few snags with development, and things have been moving along much slower than we've expected.

Since the iPhone server will be sharing the same overworld and tileset as new Era, and since the majority of the scripting work is already done on iPhone, there is no reason for us to continue waiting on Era iPhone when there are things to do on the dev server. Most of the work still needed on iPhone will be shared with the development server. Because of this, we are placing the iPhone project on hold until after the development server is released.

Even though the iPhone project is being delayed, our dev project has been helped considerably by the iPhone project. For example, we've rescripted the health system we were using, including some of the stat displays, to be much more efficient (and mostly serverside). We've also made changes to the gun system and other core systems which we will move over to the dev server.


To clarify: the iPhone project is now on hold until the development server is released, and we will continue working on the new Era project now.

We are still looking for graphic artists so that we can make some changes to the tileset and start with the overworld as soon as possible.
