[Wulf]

Ashes, can we remove the 'Simple Mouse System' requirement for the Achievements page?

[Wulf]

The keyboard works :)

[Wulf]

Also, when an achievement is "locked", the description doesn't show, and the opacity is halved. When it is unlocked, I made it max opacity and it also shows the description.

[ashes999]

Done. Looks excellent, mashaAllah. How did you reverse-engineer the achievements so fast? (Please open a PR with your changes.)

[ashes999]

Hmm, is it relatively easy to grey-out locked achievements?

[Wulf]

Yeah, just use photoshop to grayscale the image, and have some sort of file name scheme; i.e. original.png & original_grayscale.png

Show one over the other when locked/unlocked.

I'm finding it difficult to do a pull-request through command line. Guidance?

[Wulf]

I could just use the web-interface I guess, but it'd be more fun to learn the other way.

[Wulf]

Okay, I'll fork it and pull-request from the interface then.

[ashes999]

Pull Requests exist on GitHub, not git. There's no command-line for it.

I assume you either forked or used a different branch. If not, forget it, just merge/push and I'll review it later.

[Wulf]

Next time, I'll create a feature branch.

Next up for me:

    Show deeds total in menu item: x good, y bad
    Menu item to see details of deeds

I saw the map and the events along the edge of the cliff. Are you allowed to suicide in this game lol? Also, I want to bring something up regarding good/bad deeds later.
