Fate

Status update and current plans

Greetings fellow Masters, As 2022 is coming to an end, I thought I'd give an update on what I've been up to and what the future holds for Fate/Grand Companion. I must admit that I have been slacking on this project in the second half of the year. It was difficult to find the time and motivation to keep working on the features that were promised to you. I am sorry about that, and I am glad to announce that I have resumed work on the manager part of the project. There are a few technical details that I would like to address about the way the site is going to function in the future. As of now, the data you generate here is stored locally on your device. This was an easy solution that has worked well so far. The plan, in short is to transition to an account-based user experience. This will allow you to be able to access and sync your data on any device, not just the one where the data was generated. Now let's talk about the fun part, how it's gonna work. You will be required to sign into your Google account to access features that require you to generate and store data (the Manager and the GSSR Advisor for example). The data is going to be stored inside your Application Data Directory on your Google Drive. This is a similar system to how the popular Genshin Impact site, paimon.moe stores data. At some point (but definitely after the upcoming New Year GSSR banners), the GSSR Advisor will be the first feature where the new system is going to be implemented. After the authentication update, the next feature I will be working on is going to be Manager. This part of the project is going to require a bit more time, but I promise to keep you guys updated on the progress. I don't want to throw around dates when it's gonna be done because this will most likely change as I'm working on it, but the current plan is to release the first version in early summer. While my main focus is going to be the Manager, I will probably be releasing smaller features like an EXP calculator or a SQ planner, exact details will come at a later date about these (and more). This is about it. If there any questions, concerns or suggestions you can contact me through the ways listed on the Info page. Thank you all for the continuous support and may all of you get your desired servants from the next GSSR :) Zuth
