# 2022-03-06 Weekly Meeting

###### tags: `weekly-meeting`

## This week leads

Lead: Angel
Call for Review!: xMAC
Issues (limit 7): Hannibal
Minutes: 

## Topics:

### Issues

- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/issues/1477 "Gnome designers suggest the summary should be less then 35 letters."
  Proposal: Multiplayer voxel open world RPG.
  Alternative: Multiplayer voxel RPG. Inspired by Cube World, Minecraft and Dwarf Fortress. The game is currently under heavy development, coded in Rust.
  35: "Open-world RPG and world simulator"
  Valid to look into.
- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/issues/1448 "incompatible with non qwert* layouts"
  Is keyboard handled by keycode or scancode? Does rebinding help. Will take a look into.
- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/issues/1363 "Make merchant trading parallelisable"
  Confusing if items vanish from merchants inventory during the trade.
  An interesting out of scope idea is to raise the price once multiple players are interested in the same item.
  Less pressing by site2 and non-/home. Decision to close for now.

### MRs

In case I don't make it to the Sunday meeting these are some MRs and a quick note about each.

- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/merge_requests/3150 is there a discord thread somewhere with discussion on this?
  Discord thread created
- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/merge_requests/3228
  - is this ready for review? (yes)
  - the passes in it seem to slow down site rendering by a millisecond or two (out of a few hundred), but they reduce the node count, and would likely help clean up after more involved optimizations
  - I split csg-hashcons out of csg-distribute_union because I think it makes sense to review independently

  Looks good, will get reviewed
  Zesterer asked for separation of optimisation into a submodule of gen.
  
- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/merge_requests/3039 what does this do? what's its status?
  Moving code into function, decision to close, as several developers voiced that it is not a change we look for.
- https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren/-/merge_requests/2853 this feature is in master so can it be closed? 
  Angel will finish the MR.
