giullep Posted April 30, 2023 Posted April 30, 2023 i think that the Early release is here...BD finished the manual....there are 2 months from poreorder...now (and not 2 weeks) is the time...

So I'm pretty sure our two-week timeline is F'ed! We must rework the "release algorithm" and recalculate IMEDDITALY!!!!

I'm struggling to ever recall a case of currently unimplemented features being in the manuals for any module. It wouldn't make any sense to do so and it'd be somewhat tricky to do anyway as how do you get screenshots etc for something that doesn't currently exist? The manuals just usually get fleshed out as new stuff is added and released (sometimes a bit after with video 'how to' guides at time of update release to bridge the gap).

Not that the manual would have unreleased stuff, but placeholders for when new stuff is added to the manual when it's released for the module. My bad for the poor wording.

Yes, that's possible. Can't remember if it has happened in official manuals but certainly I recall occasional placeholders in Chucks Guides.
AhSoul Posted May 2, 2023 Posted May 2, 2023 Be interesting to see what this manual is like in terms of format, and whether a Chucks Guide will be needed.... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Soul's pit thread
