Lacuna Expense is a massively multiplayer online strategy game. In short it is a huge time sink. http://www.lacunaexpanse.com/ It has been opened about 2 weeks ago. I started to play about 5 days ago and I love it. The only problem is that sometime I have to give instructions to my workers and my fleet while I am asleep. The way to solve it is to write scripts that interact with the publicly available API.
During the meeting we'll read through the client code written by Steffen Mueller and will learn various programming techniques in Perl such as OOP, automatic method generation and JSON-RPC. The meeting will take place in the Weizmann Institute at the usual place in the Levine Building at 18:00 on Tuesday, 12 October. For more details check out the home page http://rehovot.pm.org/ and my blog entry: http://szabgab.com/blog/2010/10/rehovot-perl-mongers-lacuna-expanse.html Oh and by the way the back-end of the game is written in Perl. regards Gabor http://szabgab.com/ _______________________________________________ Perl mailing list Perl@perl.org.il http://mail.perl.org.il/mailman/listinfo/perl
