Hi Pierre, I've taken some time to look at your feedback more in depth, and opened the corresponding bugs/ideas.

It's on David's todo. :D If you want to participate to that part, work on this could definitely be included in a daily iteration. => Added here: http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90557-humanity-project-accessibility/suggestions/1465185-improve-wiki?ref=title (I've also deleted the broken link from the wiki - thx) > server install > ============== > > http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~hackit/hackit/trunk/annotate/head%3A/INSTALL > * This is a text file, but it is displayed on LP as code (colored > syntax), this is maybe configurable on LP.

Good suggestion - it's true that with the animation files things have got a little bit out of hand, would be good to move those files on the file repository instead. http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90259-humanity-project-missions-api-requests-code-/suggestions/1465263-make-the-codebase-smaller > demo mission feedback > ===================== > > First visitor screening: > * some .png files are too big in term of memory : earth is 2mo, target > is 600Ko. There has been a lot of work to reduce this size as much as possible, and I don't see what else we could do here, if we want to have large animations. Was it a problem because of the loading time, or because of the memory footprint? > * "go to the agencie remote desktop" should be bigger than the rest as > we want the player ton click on it Yup, actually I was thinking of removing this intro sequence altogether, as I've noticed nobody talks or care much about it, and on the other side I've seen lots of complaints about the fact that it's too big, too heavy, and that people want to "play now!". We could reuse the earth in another context - maybe in a mission where we have to localize another agent? Or even a minigame about satellite localization? (David keeps saying that the cursor looks like a satellite ;p) Added: http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90557-humanity-project-accessibility/suggestions/1465303-remove-the-introduction-sequence?ref=title > > First chat with EagleEye: > * This guy as really big problems with the keyboard !

This is quickly boring Ahah, it's true : ) Added: http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90557-humanity-project-accessibility/suggestions/1465307-reduce-the-number-of-typos-from-eagleone > * unclear sentence: "What does the message mean and where was he when > he sent it?".

Fixed. http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xavier-antoviaque/hackit/newmissions/revision/269 > Some link 404 not found (firebug detected): > * http://proxy.hackit.farsides-dev/images/srpr/nav_logo27.png Yes, this is coming from the proxy. The proxy tries to have the browser fetch the HTML through him, and leave the rest in direct - but fails sometimes.

Sure? 11M vs 52K results in Google ;p > Hacking mini-game: > * some js errors detected by firebug You remember which ones? I've created a bug entry, you can add it there directly: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hackit/+bug/714758 > Login/create account window: > * From the tools windows, clicking on "login", the login pops, but at > the bottom layer.

Yup - this is inherited from the old interface, and the switch to the new windowing system something that should have happened during the Sprint, but there was no time. I've added it: http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90557-humanity-project-accessibility/suggestions/1465457-move-old-overlay-boxes-to-the-new-window-system Should probably be done at the same time as http://feedback.farsides.com/forums/90557-humanity-project-accessibility/suggestions/1426361-improve-the-windowing-system?ref=title > email configuration > ==================== > * hardcoded emails are sent (vlad@...), whereas everything should be in > the config.php file. Yes, it comes from the unittest I think. Added a bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hackit/+bug/714768 Thanks again!
