Welcome to the 1.22 Progress Thread. Here we will keep a running change log of everything that has been implemented for 1.22. If you're on Testing build, you will have received Items marked with a + already. Things not currently available to the public are marked with a -. Please post bugs in their own threads, as this thread is followed by many people who are following game progress and not your bugs. 
GearCity v1.22 will focus on creating a series of Mod Tools which will allow content to be easily added or removed from the game. This will make it easier for me to finish adding missing content to the game, and balance what is there. These Mod Tools will be released to the public, under a copyfree license. The added benefit of the mod tools is that you and the community at large can alter the game and easily add or edit the contents of the game.
To supplement the player mod community, we'll be implementing a Mod Loading System. The mod loading system should allow modders to pack their content in ways that won't destroy the base game content, or other mods. This Mod Loading System will also work its way into a new Map Loading System. The Map Loading System will work with both the current Dot City system as well as the Regional Area System we had implemented in v0.2 but removed in v0.3. The Dot City system will be expanded to allow user custom designed maps without the need of 3d modeling software.
With a combination of both the Mod Loading system and the Map Loading System, we finally get a Scenario Loading System. Wow that's a Loading Systems! But don't worry, it's not as complicated as it sounds. The Scenario Loading System allows for you to play a game with a variety of challenges. Such as save a failing company or reach a certain market cap by a certain date.
To implement these 4 things, I first need to take care of a few missing game play features. Some of them have to do with the Loading System. Others do not. For instance, we need Random History, Pre-Established AI companies, and Expanded Game play length for make the Loading Systems work properly. Where as in game notepad and automatic marketing is not needed for the Loading Systems, but will be implemented any way. Most of these will come out in v1.21.1.
Finally, there will be some new pages on the Webserver side. We recently changed servers for our main forums, website, and email. Toward the end of v1.22 I will be writing our own custom translation program. Both Pootle and Googled Translation Toolkit have failed us, and there are really no decent free options to do mass crowd sourced translations. So I'll just have to write one my self. I do not plan on having it be overly complex, so it shouldn't take too much time. I am a bit rusty with PHP however... In addition to that, we will be implementing an official wiki system. This will mainly be used for documenting the Mod Tools and giving tutorials on how to use the tools. Eventually it'll expand to game play mechanics and tutorials as well. Although official contributions to those subjects will be done after GC is finished.
So that's what is planned for the next 3 months or so. Till then, follow this thread for progress reports!
