I like this but I was disappointed to find I cannot upload old screenshots I've taken and there should be featured screenshots that change weekly or monthly

Just tried the bat cave. We all get KO'ed and almost got all killed cause we couldn't port back to heartfire and got constantly KO'ed. Please consider allowing people to port out when KO'ed!

The rewrite has been almost a year in the making, and we'd like to see it finished. For the coming weeks, until completion, we will drop small, one-day patches, while loftar dedicates remaining dev time toward the client rendering rewrite. This sucks a bit, but having loftar tied up in this project indefinitely sucks more.!
Would be neat to have some kind of insight on how long it will take. I am sure there should be a rough estimation already? Have you done 80% of it? 50%? 15%?

It is a good idea though! To focus on the rewrite, even though it would result in less new hats and birds for some time.

It's a complex enough project that it's difficult for me to give such estimates, but I'll consider doing some kind of high-level write-up on the "architecture" of the project and its steps, and where I'm currently at.
