Few questions about Hearthbuddy and the beta

[adamlad101]

So i have the beta, will the official release look like this? The layout etc, and is it using silverfish or what? how do i change that if not because im guessing silverfish is the best AI to use, also when will we expect an official release, a few weeks im guessing just cant wait for it Also i love the new hover with the mouse with cards etc great job <3

Thanks in advance, i know there might be questions over the forums like this but just curious!

I'm not sure when our Release version is going to get deployed. We need to make sure we don't launch too soon and charge for something that in "unusable". It won't be perfect, but as long as it seems "good enough" for a Release, we'll be able to move forward. It will be 'similar' though, as we have a new code base to work with now (the old version is dead).

Based on feedback, we do need to simplify a few things in the settings, but right now the focus is making sure it's stable. The AI won't be perfect, and there'll always be issues there, but that's just the nature of bots in general. Nothing is ever really "done" or "perfect" so to speak.

The new Silverfish is the current AI being used though DefaultRoutine, and we hope to improve it with the help of the community over time. In addition, we want to help encourage and support other people who are interested in writing AIs for Hearthbuddy, and ensure we have a setup that allows for easier development.

At this point, there's still a lot of things to do (and things we'd like to do), but the biggest issue is achieving a stable release. More features, easier to understand GUI, and various game play improvements are something users can look forward to over time, and are something people can see and follow as we continue to progress the bot.

Thanks alot for the fast reply, and answering every question! Best of luck with the bot and i agree that its better to wait and release a stable version than rush it even though everyone wants it now xD but then QQ when its buggy!
