This happened after this OP, about a month after. Repeat topic anyone? Perhaps a merge of the other topic is in order. Bringing it in here, since this thread is older.

Well it can't be done without some info from devs.
The most I need is: coordinates of char GFX pieces. So when I calculate char screen position out of grid coordinates I need to know distance for each body part from that coordinates. Or maybe other way devs have done this... I dunno. It's made on server side and they won't give out server source code for 100%. It's better if they give out personal copy of server so you run it on your computer and connect to it and play and invite your friends to play with u.

P.S.: I would also pay 20€ for sure for offline version or personal server.

I think it would be an excellent way for the developers to raise funds if they make a very simple, limited offline simulator - something that will let players test out combat or plan out their dream building/village plan. Essentially, a kind of a blueprint or planning helper.

I can see the downsides of it, but still, I would be willing to put in ten bucks for it. I can see it being profitable enough, if the devs were interested in that sort of thing.

I also had in mind to make some kind of wiki in that version. So a lot of help and tips in game and you can try everything by urself.
Would be nice sandbox game.
But devs made this game very complicated (programming), code is big mess and only god knows what they wrote on some places (after looking at client code).
