Inventory and Quests

After some toil, the inventory system is now working so items can be added and listed. Another great update is the quest system. Quests can be listed by zone and its easy to add new quests. These additions are really helping to make the game more interesting.

Distributed Database Fun

We were able to integrate CouchDB into our server system. This is nice because it allows us to massively scale the data by easily adding more servers. CouchDB is a document oriented database that allows storage of pieces of data rather than traditional tables. This allows for very nice atomic actions and structured storage of data and quick read times for even millions of records. Because most data in our game is focused around a single player the format is quite complimentary.
