Server stable & Wiki page released
First off, Happy New Year – I started this project in September of 2011. I am so happy to have a great, growing, community and a really nice code base. Thanks to the awesome help of all of you testers, I was able to identify and fix the remaining server crashes. The server has been stable for the past few days so please do your worst to it! The goal is to fix any stability bugs ASAP for a ‘real’ release. Thanks again, for all of the hard work testing/playing.
As I mentioned in the last post I wanted to make the Wiki page community driven. I don’t want it to serve as a huge spoiler. The Wiki is currently live and available at the following link: Kisnard Online Wiki. As I mention on the Wiki page, “When players are (killing monsters/npcs, gathering weapons/armors/items, etc.) in the game, they have a chance to unlock a random thing (attribute, drop, etc.) on the corresponding page.” More details of how it works can be found on the Wiki page. The below image hopefully will also give a pretty good idea of how it will look before/after an unlock.
Please note that some pages and sections of the Wiki are still a work in progress. Also, the random in game chance to unlock things is not yet implemented on the production server, but will be shortly.

Wiki page WIP
Been working on fixing some more frustrating bugs. To avoid driving myself insane looking at long, boring, data-driven questing code I switched gears for the past few days. I decided to mock up a sample Wiki site. I am still contemplating exactly what to show in the table/details pages. I was thinking of incorporating some in-game way to unlock more wiki stats to avoid it being a total spoiler. Any suggestions are more than welcomed – drop a line on the suggestions forums *Forums closed, moved to Discord*.
