   That's pretty much it. See above comments regarding context.

   :!sh will work, but it puts you in an entirely new context (environment and CWD). :sh is just plain awful and doesn't emulate anything correctly. I recommended ^Z/fg/bg because it's the fastest, easiest way to get to a good, functional shel

   I didn't mean for them to come across as mutually exclusive. The ^Z/fg approach is great for keeping context: Go to a directory, run something, edit something, suspend editing to run something else, resume editing, finish back at the comman

   Oh, cool! I'll give it a try, thanks!

   tmux is fantastic, especially for remote development. However, you can't change a single pane's font size, nor is it easy to select an entire line of text using the mouse (with vertical panes). Thus I suggest iTerm2 for local development if

   Indeed. iTerm2 has replaced tmux for me for local development.

   How large is "moderately sized" ?

   Good suggestion. In the article, I failed to point out that the advantage of NERDTree is its hierarchal folder view. When a project's directory structure become gigantic it's useful to see the directory structure as you edit.

    You mean, something about the absolute, bleeding-edge version of Firefox causes it not to work? ;) Kidding aside, I'll take a look. What OS?

    I've chatted with Ivan. He's very talented :)

    Adam, our artist, was usually blocked on us, the guys implementing feature code. I believe it he spent around 130 hours from concept to completion.

    Yep. Some of the code assumes the FB global is present, which I thought we had factored out, but apparently didn't.

    Suboptimal, not unsolvable. There are a handful of ways we can — and, after today's feedback, will — improve the experience.

    Yep, the 'snapbacks' you're referring to are a product of the hinting and lag compensation. Right now the "tick lag" which controls this is 200ms — we could raise it to make gameplay smoother but then the snapbacks would be even more egregi

    You can mouseover the tiny lag meter in your info square while playing to see ping stats. Your connection might be fine, but you might be matched with someone on a less-than-optimal connection.

    Arrow keys should work for you, too.

    There's no need to send state if every client runs the same simulation. All you need to do is send every client a frame's worth of input and the frame's number. The gafferongames.com article you posted explains more about it :)

    Whoops! Fixing that broken link now. Thanks!

    All good links, thanks! We are in fact using client-side prediction and lag compensation. It's extremely difficult to make a perfectly-playable action game with 500ms ping — you'd be kicked off a Quake server with that kind of lag :) Powder

    Thanks for the kind words and helpful feedback everyone! We appreciate it! If you're still having trouble with Chrome or Firefox, please reply below with your browser and version, and possibly with a gist/pastebin of any console errors. Mar

    TCP. If you mouseover the tiny, hard-to-see lag meter in your colored square while playing a game you'll be able to see some stats about your connection.

    If the game doesn't load in Chrome, try using an incognito window since you're probably a Ghostery user. (Sorry, I swear I had fixed that...)
