    The community has grown considerably - lots of new users, a few older players are still here though. The game develpment untill quite recently was quite slow, but lots of things have been added since last year.

     Cool, although it seems like there's a bit more angst on the forums than when I left? Saying that, I could just be remembering what the community was like through rose tinted glasses.

    development wise, Simon made a c++ port of tpt, and so now tpt is in c++. That's why the interface looks much different and some old bugs are fixed. Except for months after it was finally released last September/October (?) it was extremely buggy. I've fixed a ton of bugs so I would say it's pretty good now, but there's still some things I want to do. Although I work on my mod / play minecraft instead a lot too ... also i'm an official developer now that can push to the repo, I guess that changed.

    On the forum there are many new users you probably won't recognize, maybe a few you won't even like. In game things are a bit different too, but you will probably get used to all the differences soon.

     Cheers for the summary. I think I was here when some of the initial test releases of c++ TPT were released, and I think I remember you before you were a Dev, so well done on that one. Any key in-game differences I should know about?

    No insert mode, the user interface is completely rewritten, UI is much much better
    Aside from that, as a not-developer, you probably don't have much else important to worry about :)
