Hey guys, just wanted to check in and see if anyone had any news on when or if they still plan to releasing the coding for the takp servers like they have mentioned in the past? I'm looking forward to getting my hands on a fully working old school server and tweaking and playing around with it myself. any news or information you guys can share would be greatly appreciated.

Looking through code for spoilers is a legit thing and I actually hope its not released until most guilds have had enough time to progress pretty far. I hope it doesn't open until Jan 2023 personally.
probably want to wait until at least 3 other guilds beat Quarm. Mostly likely around Christmas time or after the anniversary events.
sounds like a good idea, you really wouldn't want to make all the Plane of Time encounter mechanics, database and spell info public until then
Maybe there is a happy middle-ground where they release the pre-pop stuff whenever. Then they can move on to PoP after a certain number of guilds have beaten Quarm or some other metric. I know next to nothing about programming, so I don't know if there is a way to be that specific with what is released. I just think it would be cool compromise.
Not bad idea. PoP comes out few years later, just like it was on TAKP p.s. Sorry, twice I posted here thinking I was responding to someone via DM. I deleted posts...
