Rounder Development Update

rounder-table-2008-03-20.png

I rewrote most of the GTK table code earlier in the week (have I mentioned how much I love Glade 3?) to now look *almost* like something that could actually resemble a poker table. Should now seat 10 players instead of the previous 4. Dozens of general gameplay commits to keep things running smooth, it's actually quite playable at the moment, we ran through several hands in a network game a couple nights ago and it seemed to be working fine, although it's a little disorienting when you're used to the sounds in actual online poker clients.

Between bowes and Kenny we've got a curses UI moving along, as well as a replacement hand evaluator that's not quite finished but when it is, will relieve the dependency we have on the non-Python pokereval code. Another friend is reportedly hacking on support for various graphical cards which will be an awesome addition.

"sudo python setup.py install" should now get you an installed and playable version of rounder-server, rounder, and rounder-txt (not yet completed).

Account creation is stalled due to some missing functionality in Twisted for anonymous logins when using perspective broker. Fix is coming out in Twisted 8, not yet in Fedora so I'm waiting for that to appear before I apply the patch to start us down the path. Once it's in logins will be anonymous, your avatar received then will only allow you to do certain things, among them create yourself an account, and of course login. This and chat (which will be super easy) are the only two things on my mind grapes that need to be done for a 0.0.1.

More info available on the project page for those interested.
