 Update for non-testers
Here's a brief rundown of what's working, what's partly working and what's not working yet. I hope it'll be interesting for those who are watching this from the outside.
Fully working:
-Travel (interplanetary and intragalactic) -Surveying -Sampling -Resource stats -Inventory -Training (NPC and PC) -Waypoints -Mail -Trade -Emotes -Communication -Maps (overhead, radar, interplanetary) -Banking -HAM bars
Partly Working:
-Bazaar (This is mostly working perfectly but there are one or two bugs with non-instant auctions) -NPCs (They are populated, but apart from trainers (who work perfectly) they give generic answers presently) -Crafting (Schematics are visible, as are resource stat percentages, but schematics cannot be downloaded to the datapad yet, so actual crafting is not possible)
-Not working yet:
-Combat -Quests -Healing -Mission Terminals -Mobs -Space -Vehicles -Pets
Feel free to ask any questions. Although we aren't allowed to post screenies or videos, we are allowed to answer questions.

what do you mean by the fact "combat doesn't work" can you enter combat and it sucks or it just literally isn't working?

I mean that there are no working combat skills and no mobs, so literally " no combat".

Pets are not even on the radar yet  There are no MOB's in the TC yet. They did add groups last night and we gave it the once over and it looks to be stable.

Well, so long as we have them for release or at least shortly after. I really can't imagine them considering pets unimportant, what with them being a key example of pre-NGE and the large quantity of CH's who are comming to the emulator.

It wouldn't be a release without pets!
Everything aside from JTL will be included in the release.

JTL i can live with good ole starports...but i did enjoy the space fights and the chance to do something other than ground to ground combat.
I have a question, how is the quality of lag? is it choppy or smooth?

The server has no lag problems - if anything it would be your hardware specifications as thats the kind of lag you experienced in live SWG. I run at 20-30 fps all the time now adays and the box is being run on a home connection.

Excellent, I was just a bit worried because of something I read around here a few months ago. I guess it was probably SWGEmu as opposed to ANH. Essentially it was a list of dividing different aspects of the game into "Out with Launch", "Shortly after launch", and "eventually". Pets were under the latter.

Im assuming that the reason combat isnt working is for small reasons only?......i mean swgemu's server has a somewhat working combat. Like i said, im assuming theres only small reason why combat isnt working on the ANH server. Theres alot of combat moves that work as far as executing the move but the damage part of it is borked.
Again am i right on this?
Im in no way comparing who has what working first because i know that ANH is working more deligently on everything but i am kinda curious on the combat issue and its present state.
Also, this would relate to vehicals to......just small problems with those?

My understanding of how they are building the software is that each system is built upon another system and the base system is crafting. Everything else in the game relies upon crafting, weapons, armor, med buffs, food, traps, etc. Kinda like building a brick wall, each brick is another system built upon a foundation, crafting being that foundation. Once the foundation is layed and stable.... really how hard is combat gonna be? Each skill just needs an equation created useing the numbers from crafted items to fill in the variables.
