I'm kind of hoping that me and @Vanthacan sneak in the new encyclopedia UI and at least some of the new encyclopedia.

@ShadowOfHassen@Vantha That would be marvellous, indeed - and another clear and visible improvement compared to A26.

The encyclopedia is made on the svn A27 or the A26?

It was based off texts in the last test candidate of A27, we'll probably need to a bit of updating (I know @wowgetoffyourcellphone did some things to the ships), but once Vantha finishes the new UI we'll finish off the Hellenistic civs and get everything added to the game. I don't think we'll be able to finish all the encyclopedia, but we're almost half way done.

So, now sep is over. Any new month where we expect new alpha? or next update :p. @Stan`

We still have a few things to iron out and other things to merge like the encyclopedia, moderation tools, spidermonkey update ... Also the migration to gitea currently means we cannot make bundles like we used to, so that has to be fixed.

You have no idea how excited that is to me.

Of course, we're not 100% done (only half the civilizations about), but the stuff we have is in my opinion shippable and things like images and art can be added as we go on.

There is also @real_tabasco_sauce's patch for better unit behaviour.

@ShadowOfHassen since the encyclopedia is big we might have to do it in two parts in case we wanna release because translators might not have enough time to translate all of it.

That's fair, I get that.
