As people who follow our socials know, we don't like giving out long-range external ETAs; we take pride in our non-crunch work environment, where developers are freer to work to their potential without outside pressure. However, we can say that B42 will be out this year :)

We've seen concerns that the extensive engine and map data structure changes we have planned for b42 will make existing map mods invalid. This is not true! They will need to be reexported in new versions of the tools, but it will not need to be redone from scratch.

1/ Hey all, we’ve made the decision to temporarily make Thursdoids monthly rather than every 2 weeks. Much of our current work is ‘completing what we’ve already shown’ – and much of it isn’t flashy, it’s just stuff we need to get done that isn’t always suitable for a news post.
