Night and day.
I'd love to do this. But I haven't used VB6 before, so I don't know how different it is from the .Net version.
But on the other hand.....
I am not advocating open source but here's an idea.
Aurora has enough bug hunters. We all run into bugs just playing the game. 5.42 has 30 pages of possible bugs. When 5.50 came out with a lot of nice changes, there were 4 major bug fixes. Now there are 20 pages of bug reports for 5.50 and 5.53 is out with a major bug fix. If I were the developer, I would not want to spend all my time bug hunting instead of developing Newtonian Aurora. As it is, it's just a hobby to begin with. A dedicated knowledgable player or two who knows programming, could spend some time tracking down and fixing bugs. Obviously someone Steve trusts, but it frees him up to concentrate on Newtonian Aurora, Aurora II or any other new ideas, while the existing version gets even better. I would absolutely volunteer if I new anything about programming. Actually I know enough to be dangerous, but not knowledgeable. at least that's what the software people say. I'm a hardware person.
The vast majority of the gaming community are morons.
