I also want to ask something about this topic.

At college I have to draw diagrams about how a "program" works, and diagrams about the database structure and sequence diagrams.
Did you guys do this aswell for Exile?

I don't know how Exile-Team is doing this but for me i can say that you have to do this if you want to make it right.

If it is a little application just for Fun in programing than i don't care about and any diagrams or blueprints. But if you want to make something that you want to share with others or you want to expand your project later on and so on. Then you should make a plan about what you want, what you need for that and how i can achieve this.

At the Beginning it can be frustrating because you want to start in programing but at the End you will be lucky because you will know to every time where you are in your project and what have to be done as the next step. And if you plan to expand your team it is easy to introduce them to your project without much effort in explaining. You can just show him your concept and so on

For me I dont program to much anymore, i do more "project management" and for me there is documentation the foundation in everything. If your documentation is good from the start you will have later much less problems at all!

Hope this helps a little

Does the 40% also include the time participating in college orgies and "fuckathons"?

1. 3

2. Sublime text, BI tools, assets were done by modelers(can't comment on what they use)

3. I remember when they were talking about Exile I think it took them maybe 1-2 months to crank out the foundation. We were testing it fairly quickly in the beginning

4. Learn SQF/C++

UE4 best engine right now.
