No more Java Web Start - Jacob__mybb_import1 - 04-27-2011
One of my goals is to make it so almost anyone can play Buildism with little difficulty. We were using Java Web Start, which was causing a few users to have issues, even though they had Java installed. So, Buildism now uses Java applets only! They are older and well-supported, so this should eliminate all of the old problems. It will also make some cool features possible in the future, like allowing you to embed your game in your own website!
If you find any bugs in the update, please let me know.

I'm hoping this should be easier for users to play.

Even though it's giving us features, are we going to be losing any features?

Then hope that means we can keep some people here since now those few can play.

Thankfully, this has happened so the Buildism startup is better.
