I am making this announcement now to give everyone a heads up. v3.22 will hopefully be out before the end of the year. This will be the very last feature release of RCBasic 3.
So to answer some questions that will probably be asked:
Q: Why is 3.x ending?
A: It is getting old and a lot of things need to be rewritten in order to get certain features in.
Q: What is planned for v3.22?
A: Adding steamworks functionality and whatever perforamance improvements I can get in.
Q: What about bug fixes?
A: v3.22 will be the last time you see a new feature but there will be continuous bug fixes as long as there is still people using it.
Q: When will v4.0 be out?
A: Someday
I will start a thread soon detailing the plans for v4.0 but even if v3.x is not getting new features it doesn't actually need them. v4.0 will be focused on new 3D functionality but 2D is not going to change much so please continue working on your current projects and don't worry too much about compatability. If I don't have a reason to break compatability, I won't.
