There's a lot of stuff left to do for the project.
Seeing we just hit the 100th Simba Tester I'd like to take this opportunity to point you guys (and girls) at a few things we as a community need to tackle.
If we want Simba to be a success, we must pay attention to the following points. I've mainly listed points that the Simba developers simply can't do alone. We need YOUR help to make Simba what we all want it to be!
Wiki pages
The main Simba wiki page is here:
http://villavu.com/wiki/index.php/Simba
If you think you can write something useful about Simba on the wiki, please do. It doesn't matter if your english isn't well formed, or a lot of information is missing, but it's a start.
On the main Simba page you'll find a small list of pages that I think would be suitable for the wiki.
Documentation
When comparing the Simba Function Documentation against the functions in the Simba function list, one will see a lot of functions are ill documented or even missing! Others may need additional examples or are simple outdated.
If you find such a function, please write a little description about it (if possible), and then please ask us to add it.
Another valuable resource is examples in the documentation, it lacks a lot of examples.
I don't think this should be too hard considering a lot of functions are like SCARs.
(Testing) Scripts!
Making your script work with Simba and/or testing it is appreciated as well!
Before we make a first public release, it would be wise to already have some working scripts. So far I've seen a banking script by Coh3n (Good job!) and an Alcher by Cazax.
We've been getting less bug reports, so I assume at least those scripts are running fine?
I'll try to help as much as I can, but I don't have the time I used to have when we initially started SRL.
If you're unsure about something, you can always PM, mail, post or file a bug report. Any comments are very much welcomed!
