This is an official build of Skyscraper, made by eventhorizon. It contains only the files in SVN, and can be safely downloaded to your computer.

This article describes a development build of Skyscraper Simulator. It contains good information related to Skyscraper Simulator.

This build has some bugfixes, and also introduces build support for the alternate frontend, one that doesn't use wxWidgets. The alternate frontend should eventually be used to port Skyscraper to other types of systems, like Android, iOS, etc. This week I'm going to be working on bugfixes a lot, so make sure you report issues with this, and I'll get right on it. In the Skyscraper 2.1 codebase (master branch), I've started work on a new networking system, which will be used for multiplayer support in the future, lately I've been working on a chat client and server.

Currently there won't be any more major features to the 2.0 codebase, since I'm going to be working on cleaning up the code and finishing features, and then I'll make a 2.0 release.

Changelog for 2.0:

1. moved wxWidgets code out into a separate frontend module
2. Added code to detect executable path without wxWidgets
3. added native input system
4. Some enhancements to the development doc
5. added SetZoom function for CameraTexture objects, which changes the zoom factor for orthographic cameras
6. Added a zoom control to the Camera Texture Control window
7. Don't separately initialize in the vminit command, use the initializer in LoadDefault() instead
   Changelog for 2.1:
8. started work on new networking subsystem (for future multiplayer support)
