XENA 2020
Estimated Progress = 40%
What is XENA? XENA is a program that acts as a server for all the clients/players. EO can be used to connect to a XENA server.
What is the XENA network? XENA will provide an entire source code applicable to hosting eo servers. If you have a premium XENA account you`ll be able to access the developmental servers on beta and alpha tests. Community developers will be able to access premium with patronage.
What is patronage? Its just an easy way to say your contribution = your right to the project. If your work filled a big development hole that was missing, I will give large patronage to your account. If your work fills a significant portion of the project, I`ll give you even more. And if your work is significant enough I will even freeze your patronage so you`ll always have premium access.
What can XENA be used for? You can use XENA to host your server instead of the existing methods.
Can I use XENA on my existing server? Yes, the XENA database is slightly more optimized. It`s using a newer version of MySQL; but a database converter for XENA will be available.
What benefits will it have to use XENA instead? Server optimization, new PM commands, smarter AI and more difficult monsters/bosses, scripting, add-ons, custom action types, less restriction on development for scripting quests etc, ability to use more advanced websites with the server, ability to request custom functions (XENA Members).
What does it take to build a program like XENA? Behind every button press in a game, is a function and a function is written by script, think of every button you`ve ever pressed in eo. Multiply that by all of the things that button could effect like yourself? another player? a monster? etc. Start painting that picture and you`ll see there are scripts behind all item interactions; everytime you use one, etc. It`s alot of functions, but the important ones are already done.
What language is XENA written in? C#
What does XENA development look like right now? You can join our discord chat to see whats happening and dive right in when ever you can.
Heres some recent info
When willXENA be ready? XENA will be completed when the server is running, with major game-play functions performing well pending beta.
Whats beyond XENA? When XENA is complete. Its time to work on XENA 1.2, and continue advancing until we reach XENA 2.0. XENA 2.0 will host a server compatible with a more recent version of the eo client.

Theres several more other parts to the entire server. But I`m trying to prioritize for a playable standard. Please use this list and ask me about how you can help write scripts for any of the above parts.
