It has been pretty quiet on our development since the last release 0.5.4. But we have some great and big news.
We just finished our milestone with features and bugfixes for 0.6.0, we are now preparing for a first test-version

Some notable changes will include the following:
- Add queue app: Add a queue to your server where spectators can queue to join a player slot!
- Add Admin Toolbar for a better experience when managing your server.
- Add Admin player list (//players).
- Add Discord and PayPal buttons (the ads app).
- Add Music Server app (queue your music and enjoy it together).
- Add MX Karma integration, and added improved advanced voting (++,+,+-,-,--).
- Adding columns to /list (list has advanced mode).
- Add CP time difference in the middle of the screen when passing checkpoints (sector times app).
- Add configuration options for the vote ratio.
- You can now remove a local record as an admin.
- Add compare window for dedi and local checkpoint times. (/localcps [local #] and /dedicps [dedi #]) (not giving # will compare against dedi/local 1)
- Add experimental automatically updater in-game (in early beta, be aware when using, it can break your installation)
- Vote for extend (you will see how this works in the release update we will make later)
- F7 to hide some widgets (aka HyperConcentrationMode )
- Fix of several long standing bugs like //shuffle, live rankings in performance mode, and incorrect mapfolder contents.

We are currently in testing phase and expect the 0.6.0 to be released in the end of April 2018 or beginning of May 2018.

Hi all,

It has been some time since the last update. I'm was and still are very busy with some personal important things, like graduation, my next study abroad and the move to there.

Besides that, we are preparing 0.6.1 with already some fixes and improvements:
- Better error handling with JSON/YAML configuration files (showing correct error messages if there is an syntax error).
- Local records init error (small fix).
- Significantly improved performance when starting PyPlanet (and saving maplist) with karma and local records apps enabled (indexing).
- Dependency updates.

We are still planning to include the following in 0.6.1 (mostly fixes);
- Alt menu fixes (Shootmania).
- Lock-issues in jukebox (where the whole jukebox can become unresponsable).
- Read map list bug (potential bug, needs research).
- Expanded scores and advanced maplist not showing correctly (investigation required).
- MX Karma issues (investigation required).
- //extend and /extend and the XMLRPC integer limit issue.
- Several small changes and improvements for stability and some improvements to the documentation.

Will keep you updated
Take care!
