    Hello my fellow KAGians,

    Long time no devlog from me. Don't worry, I haven't started crunching bugs. As always, I'm just the guy behind the scenes.

    Today I've moved the Base folder of KAG to GitHub! For many of you it's probably nothing special, but to the guys like @Fuzzle, it might actually mean a lot. Because of this change people who want to help fixing the game and have been submitting fixes to scripting part of the game via bugreports - can do so now directly*. Amazing, isn't it? (@Geti was just lazy and didn't want to include your fixes by hand over and over again. It's actually quite tedious so forgive him, I did. He asked me and @jrgp to create this.)

    Rejoice!

    May the KAG be with you,
    Furai

    INB4 - no, we're not open sourcing KAG, just the Base folder part that was anyway publicly available to any of you who have downloaded and installed the game.

    * - via pull requests.

    P.S. If there will be demand for such thing as README in this repo on how to contribute - I might create it. Better yet, one of you can create it and submit it via pull request!

    Amazing. How is it synchronized with the backend repo?

    Thanks to our resident cookie monster for handling the move - I'm sure there'll be issues here and there and working with multiple subrepos is a pain so far, but I think the increase in transparency and the public versioning is probably worth it.
