Cory Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I was thinking, there should be a section where scriptwriters can post their scripts to be tested, or gather beta testers, etc. Would come in very handy imo.
Krulvis Posted May 28, 2013 Posted May 28, 2013 I dont think this is necessary. Scripters will test their own scripts until they believe it works. When they feel like it works they will release it (or not). After they release it there could still be some buggs in it but they will find out soon enough. It isn't necessary to make a whole different section for "untested scripts" because there indirectly already is one. As soon as it is decided that a script works perfect it will be added to the sdn. Before it is in located in sdn you could say (if you prefer to use that term) that a script is in testing mode or "beta" as you called it
Developer Maxi Posted May 28, 2013 Developer Posted May 28, 2013 @Krulvis: People who rather keep their source code behind the SDN which offers more protection might want to have a BETA through the SDN. @OP: I believe for scripters who don't mind their scripts to be public they can use the scripts section. For whoever likes to keep it private, there is always the opportunity to discuss things with the admin team, to setup a BETA through the SDN.

But for script sections that don't get a lot of daily attention, it can be hard to get feedback and potential bugs you missed relatively quickly. For example my agility script, Every update I made, I had to wait ages for someone to come along and use it, and even then reply with feedback. Would make it easier to just post in a thread saying something like, Added Barbarian assault, need testers and feedback.At least then people who would be willing to test and find errors in scripts can and easily do so at that.
