Change level annotations from Dungeon Overview
Posted: Thursday, 19th June 2014, 22:29
I have some spare time so looked for a requested feature in the wiki (User Interface Implementable List). I picked "Change level annotations from Dungeon Overview (Ctrl-O)" and coded it. Halfway done, functionality is there but testing, polish and comments are missing.
Now I ask myself if I can just pick stuff and post patches like that. Is that part of the wiki even for people like me or is it meant for regular developers? Are the items still wanted? Maybe I should start a discussion in the "Game Design Discussions" forum first? Is it likely that none of the regulars already started a feature from there?
In short, what are the best practices here when I want to code requested and approved features from the wiki?
