Honestly, my feelings regarding RP have changed over the last couple of months. It is one of a handful of mods I have actually donated a fair amount of cash towards, and at the time I could not consider playing a modded MC without it.
However, I have now run out of interest in RP. The only real useful stuff it now brings to the table is the wires and circuits (although greg has a block that handles the circuits).
Imo, the way I feel about her mod, the sooner it is removed from the packs the better. Hopefully this beta 1.5 pack will start that process. It is a closed mod, no other mod can integrate with it (other than approved ones such as wireless rs etc), source code is closed, she is slower than hell to get timely updates out, leaves game breaking dupe bugs in, makes endless promises she breaks, stares at a gift horse in the mouth and doesn't see it and will probably vanish again at the drop of a hat leaving countless 1000's of players pining for an update.
I find it interesting her twitter feed has started again yesterday, prior to that her last tweet was the 19th Feb stating a bug fix was coming for 1.4.7. Read into that what you will I guess. The way I see it, is that she develops RP for one single purpose, so that she can play it, which is fair enough I guess. If she has Minecraft burn out and does not want to play, RP gets dropped like a bad smell.
I am disappointed for her in that she could not obtain/or did not want to obtain the ongoing development assistance from another member of the modding community. Is there not someone she could approach and say 'hey, anyone want to help take some of the work load? Otherwise it'll be a blue moon when I get a new version out.'. If she doesn't want that to happen, then honestly, we could do without waiting around for her mod, and I guess Slow has decided the same thing.
