Community meeting 20190406 - Barebones notes

Transparancy

Dev and balance in same team
Updates on how things are going

How do we find out what we should do next? How change?

Will we change the website?
Will we push the mod outside the community?
Tournament

Loose, easy, not much structure. Keep it fairly casual.

Points of contention talked out on the forums

UK picks 4-5 people, a week to think things over what and how he wants to do it.

Website
Form devteam, compile what they and the community want to do, then see where we are at with the website. Community prefers website as the starting function for the mod, but an EXE could be integrated with steam.

Get mod out there
Steam workshop?
Advertise in different places with shoutcasts?
Known streamers to stream games?
Members make forum post: Add suggestions on how to market the mod

Get the mod to a point where we want to play it first, make the website good and easy to use for example.

Tournament
Robie wants to organise a tournament

Will make a post on the forums

Mods future
Where do we want the mod to go, what do we want it to look like when its finished?
Hard to set an end point as of now, but a general direction might be good. The new devteam should talk it over and look at suggestions.

What is the best way for people outside the dev team to connect with the dev team with ideas?
Post ideas on the forums, regular meetings specifically for ideas?

Etiquette
How do we treat eachother? What do we do with those who misbehave?

Someone who speaks to misbehavers?
Cant really have a formal structure, so how do we deal with it?
Someone trusted?

Research? Specialist? Another meeting?
