Distracted by Elder Scrolls Online at the moment :)

There is a still a huge amount to do so I'm almost certain it won't be this year. I'll keep posting updates though when I have them.

C#

 Soontm (meaning nowhere near for quite a while).
Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

Just wanted to add that Ukrainian and Russian communities are waiting passionately for C# Aurora.
We don't show up here that often but there are a LOT of hardcore players grateful for your work.  ;)

Well, there is still tension but as we are mostly mature players we try not to bring it to our hobbies and leisure time   ::)

"Almost" Certain?
Forgive me for jumping at straws but that makes me think that theres a slim possibility it could actually be in a playable state within a few months, I'm excited, though I'm sure the added features, bug testing, and hotfixes will surely take months after any release.

The last 20% of a software project takes 80% of the time :P

I'd love to have the C# Aurora in time for the new year, but "Almost" Certain is pretty much just code for "If literally ANYTHING is quirky, or if I flipped a '>' somewhere and didn't notice it, then its not gonna happen".  Plus, its possible Steve will decide to add in some extra features atop it while he's in the code.  I've got April down as my hoped for date for a release, but we'll see how it goes.

I'm sure you don't need any more encouragement Steve, but I know a heck of a lot of people that play Aurora regularly who don't post here (or anywhere), and they're all gnashing their teeth for the C# release.

Strangely, whilst it's a very hardcore strategy game, most of the players I know aren't really interested in other gaming as such - so it's got a very wide appeal!

I've been busy with work the last couple of weeks or so, which halted progress for a while. Back on it today :)
