    TAW 3.0 Progress Update (Q3 2023)

    In this blog post we’ll go over some of the work we’ve done since our last progress update. We'll also go into our plans for the next few months.


    Permission management

    The permission management system is, as the name would suggest, responsible for managing the permissions of all users of the new website. Without permission management anyone visiting TAW 3.0 would be able to do anything. So a random person visiting the website would, for example, be able to dishonourably discharge anyone up to and including the CiC. This would of course not be the ideal situation.

     


    In July we laid the groundwork for the permission management system that would allow us to configure who has access to which functionality on the website. In August we completed the core functionality but it hasn’t been fully implemented yet. This means that only certain parts of the website currently have working permissions. Over the coming weeks and months we’ll be working on implementing the permission system for the other parts of the website.


    Front-end rework

    Large portions of the front-end are functionally complete, however we are not entirely happy yet with the way it looks. As such we are currently in the process of improving the design of most pages to create a better looking and more user friendly experience. 


    Chat system

    TAW 3.0 will have a live chat system intended for quickly sending short messages. The back-end of this chat system is now complete. The front-end is also largely complete however we still need to hook some things up to the back-end.


    Bug fixing

    Every large enough piece of software is going to have some bugs during its development. TAW 3.0 is no different. Almost every month we spend some time on fixing bugs to ensure that TAW 3.0 is stable once it is released. This last quarter was no exception. Among others we have fixed some bugs related to onboarding, editing units, forums and new user registration.


    Questions?

     

    If you have any questions or suggestions feel free to reach out to FlyingDutchMan [CC SEC] or Samblues [CC SELC].

    TAW 3.0 Feature Highlight: Attendance & Events

    For TAW 3.0 the attendance & events system has been completely overhauled. In this blog post we’ll explain the new features that will be coming with the release of TAW 3.0. We’ll also briefly touch on our future plans for the attendance & events system. Everything outlined in this blog post except for the future expansions section has already been implemented in the back-end of TAW 3.0, the front-end is still a work in progress.

     

    Private events

    The TAW 3.0 website will come with the option to create private events. These private events can only be seen by the members invited to the event. Apart from the fact that they are hidden to those not invited these events will function like any other event.

     

    Invites

    On the old website each event is either mandatory or optional for all attendees. The new system will allow the creator of an event to set each invite for a unit or member to optional or mandatory. This means that it will be possible to create an event that is optional for some while mandatory for others.

     

    Repeating events

    Event generation

    On the old website each event can either be a one-off event or an event that repeats every week on specific days of the week. These weekly events and one-off events are of course still supported on the new website. But we’ve also added some extra options for repeating events. The new website will support monthly events and events that happen every x number of weeks.


    These new options will make it much easier to create repeating events that don’t happen every week such as the monthly TFO meeting or a biweekly staff meeting.

     

    Editing repeating events

    On the old website if you wanted to edit an event in a series of repeating events you would edit every event in that series. The new system will allow you to choose whether you want to edit a single event or the entire series. 

     

    Cancelling events

    Sometimes an event has to be cancelled, for that eventuality we have added a new event cancellation system. When an event is cancelled it will still show up in the event calendar but it will be clearly visible that the event is cancelled. It will be impossible to take attendance for cancelled events.

     

    Attendance reports

    On the old website there are three main pages where attendance can be seen. These are: the attendance of an individual event, an overview of the attendance of all members in a unit, and the attendance of a specific member. All of these will make a return on the new website with additional options for filtering, searching, and sorting this data to make it easier to find the information that you are looking for.

     

    Event series attendance

     

    TAW 3.0 will also come with an additional attendance report. This report will come in the form of a graph that displays the historic attendance of all events in a series. A mock-up of this graph is shown in the image below.

    Please note that this image is just a mock-up and the final graph may look different.

     

    Minor improvements

    Besides the major features outlined above we have also made some minor quality of life improvements. 


    On the old website it is impossible to revoke an invite to an individual member without deleting the event or discharging the member. This is of course slightly inconvenient so in TAW 3.0 you will be able to revoke invites with ease. 


    Taking attendance for optional events on the old website would lead to everyone who did not attend getting an excusal on their attendance report. This would in turn lower their mandatory average. In TAW 3.0 you will instead be marked as “not attended”. Being marked as not attended will not affect your mandatory average in any way.

     

    Future expansions

    On top of the features that will be coming in TAW 3.0 we have a couple of ideas to further improve the attendance & events system. These ideas will not be coming in the initial release but may be added in the future.


    Third party calendar support

    The TAW 3.0 Event system was designed from the start to be capable of being integrated with the vast majority of calendar applications such as Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook and Apple Calendar. Eventually this will give all members the option to easily add their TAW events to their own personal calendar. Once an event is added to your personal calendar it will remain in sync with TAW so any changes to the event on the TAW website would also carry over to your personal calendar.


    The screenshot below contains a proof of concept where we synced a TAW event with the Google Calendar.

    More statistics

    By compiling the attendance data in new ways we will be able to offer greater insights in the historical attendance of units and events.

     

    Event cancellation notifications

    When an event is cancelled the invited members could get a notification. Depending on the settings of the member they would get a notification for all events, mandatory events or no events.

     

    Invite by position

    This would allow you to schedule an event and invite all members with a certain position in a unit or its sub-units. This will make creating staff meetings a lot easier.

    TECH TIP from our Community

    A Flash from the Past!!

    I'm sure many of you remember surfing the web and watching flash video's and playing flash games often remakes of 80's 90's games like Super Mario bros and space invaders. Unfortunately, flash was abandoned on the web about 3 years ago and all that content pretty much disappeared.

     

    A GitHub project was created to preserve Flash's place in internet history, with an archive of over 170 000 games and animations! the project is called flashpointarchive.org It has an on-demand app that downloads flash files as needed or if you are a pack rat and want the whole archive at 1.4 TB, you can download a torrent for it.

    TAW 3.0 Vision & progress update

    Vision for TAW 3.0 and beyond

    TAW 3.0 will be a complete replacement of the current TAW website and its related systems. It will provide a faster, more modern user interface built around robust back-end systems. We will be able to modify the website to suit our future needs for many years to come.


    There are four core requirements that the new website must meet before release.

    • It must be able to do everything that the old website can do.

    • Performance must be better than the old website.

    • Discord must be supported to the same extent that TeamSpeak is. 

    • It must be open to future expansions and modifications.

    Features

    For the release of 3.0 the majority of features will remain functionally identical to the current system. Of course these features will still be built from the ground up by our team to ensure that they meet modern standards and tie in well with the rest of the website.


    New features will only be included in the first release of 3.0 for one of two reasons: If a feature is very easy to quickly implement or if implementing the feature after release would cause issues or cost extra time.


    The Attendance & Events and the Email/Messaging systems have been completely reworked with many new features and improvements. More details on these systems will follow in future blog posts.


    Performance

    Performance is a high priority for 3.0. We could have all of the fancy features that we could ever want but if it took 5 minutes to load a page no one would want to use them. As such we will optimise the website to ensure optimal performance.


    Discord support

    Some time ago Discord was officially adopted as one of the primary voice chat providers of TAW. It is important to ensure that our members and units on Discord are able to enjoy the same features and support as their TeamSpeak counterparts.


    Future expansions

    Because the gaming world and TAW will continue to adapt we must ensure that the TAW website can keep up. This is why we have built the website from the ground up with future expansion/modification in mind. We will be able to add new features or modify existing ones with relative ease.


    Development Timeline & Progress

    When I joined TAW more than 6 years ago I was told that we would have a new website soon. 6 Years later the new website has not yet been released. I am sure that everyone would like to know the release date of the new website. Unfortunately we can’t give a release date because it is impossible to estimate. Our team consists entirely of volunteers working on the website in our spare time. This means that the amount of work we can do varies a lot depending on real life circumstances.


    While we can’t give a release date we can provide a high level historical overview of our progress from the start of this project on the 8th of May 2021 to today. This should give you an impression on the work we have done so far. Please note that this timeline is non exhaustive and some items may be missing.

     

     

     

     

     

    The graph below shows the current status of all of the current and planned components of TAW 3.0. As you can see we have made a lot of progress over the last two years.

     

    It is important to note that not all components require the same amount of work to complete. Even if a component is marked as complete there may still be some work that needs to be done if any issues are discovered during testing. There is also some work, such as testing and deployment, that needs to be done but doesn’t really fit into any of the components.

     

    Future blog posts & questions

    In the future we will be releasing more blog posts that will go into more detail on individual components and features.

    TECH TIP from our Community

    New Steam interface update!

    512px-Steam_icon_logo image

    The new steam interface update is a major overhaul of the desktop client, the in-game overlay, and the web browser. It aims to unify the codebase across different platforms, improve the user experience, and add new features and functionality. Some of the main changes are:

    • A refreshed UI with new fonts, colors, menus, and dialogs.
    • A new toolbar in the in-game overlay that allows users to customize and pin widgets, such as notes, videos, and websites.
    • A new notes feature that lets users write and save notes in the cloud and access them across devices.
    • A new notifications page that shows what your friends have bought or played lately, and who among them plays or wishes for a game.
    • A new aggregated news page that lists all available channels for easy reading, viewable as headlines or full stories. Each game also has its own news channel in the library and the overlay.
    • A new achievements display that shows recent accomplishments in the library and the overlay.
    • A redesigned downloads tab that shows a game icon and a download bar at the bottom of the client.
    • Hardware acceleration for Linux and Mac users to make the client comparable to the Windows version.

    "Are you sure about that CO? What do you mean we got to recruit now?!? We need more gamers. Top-tier gamers! That's why we put our DI's in charge of getting more members for TAW. Its their job after all."

    "I agree with the higher-ups. Our DI buddies do a great job but it shouldn't be just them recruiting for TAW. Everyone should be helping out! We have way more members than DI's. If everyone helps us grow we will have more gamer buddies = more fun for everyone!"

    Caliber is a free-to-play, team-based, tactical third-person shooter focused on special forces units from all over the world. Four classes, more than 60 operators with unique abilities and equipment, and various game modes: PvE, PvP and PvPvE.

     

    There are four operators in every fireteam:

     

    • Assault is the fastest, capable of flanking the enemy to get behind their lines.
    • Support is a heavily armed operator with lots of health and armor. The Support’s main goal is to divert the enemy’s attention and disrupt their attacks.
    • Medic heals and revives allies and is effective in combat at close and medium range.

    Game of the Month: Guild Wars 2

    Guild_Wars_2_Logo image

    Guild Wars 2 has made a steady comeback in the MMORPG space over the last six months. The game was originally released in 2005 and Guild Wars 2 came on the scene in 2012. This resurgence is due largely to finally releasing a Steam version last year in August.

    While the Steam release expanded the player base it has caused confusion and frustration with existing and returning players. The biggest issue has been with existing characters created on legacy accounts. 

     

    If you have an existing Guild Wars 2 account and would like to play the game using those characters you cannot use the Steam version. In addition, any expansion you may have purchased previously will not be available to you through Steam without purchasing them again. Essentially, the Steam version forces existing players to start over from the beginning. 

     

    However, all is not lost. Legacy players can simply continue using the launcher that is downloadable from the Guild Wars 2 website. Once logged into the servers it doesn’t matter if you used the Steam client or the legacy client to launch the game; all players can interact seamlessly in-game.
