Well, after a week delay while working on something else I finally get around to updating the CVS.

QS 0.13 is now on CVS. It can also be downloaded as a zip archive at:
http://www.quantum-star.com/quantumstar_phpsource.zip

This is the second primary reorganisation, so many classes are grouped with the System directory (representing Partholan). Also added is an installer which should work, full input filtering, the savant2 templating engine I may be switching to in the near future, and assorted improvements to the Request/Response MVC cycle.

This version also adds future support for multiple View Systems including Smarty, Savant and straight XML.

I appreciate even a passing test of this – it does very little (most of the improvements are as always transparent to users) but the installer testing would be nice. QS is now also no longer dependent on user defined paths – it should correctly determine it’s location using some very simplified detection.

I’ve also added in a place to accumulate unit tests – something I decided to use here since I seem to be putting serious effort into QS these days – might as well throw all the best tools at it. No tests as yet – I have these but they are still being written to account for a few expected changes in Q-LIB.

Next up is 0.14, an updated database schema, installer translations, internationalisation, and the start of an Admin Panel. Sorry if holding up gameplay seems weird but I tested it back in April and it worked fine – will get added back in a few weeks for a few Developer releases leading into a Beta Stage.
