I think it's time I share updates about this tool I've been working on.

https://github.com/xackery/xegony

Xegony is an ambitious project, and one that won't be ready at full capacity any time soon. It combines preexisting projects I've worked on (shinshop, eqcleanup, discordeq, many others) and combines them into an all-in-one tool that can be utilized for many different purposes.

As the feature list notes on the github, it is planned to do a lot.

Note that while there are many features to the tool, you don't have to use them all. It will be possible to disable features to meet your needs. There's just perks to each and every one.

Why did I start a new tool when there's already great existing tools around? It was a self challenge primarily. I wanted to learn more about the inner workings of EQ, and adjust how certain areas work to better suit my server's needs and visions. I figured, why not release my efforts open source for others to check out at their leisure?

Why combine so many tools? There's perks to combining tools. Namely, I hit limitations on features of previous projects, where unless I had some other component or feature set beyond it's scope, it won't ever come to fruition. So, I started putting those ideas in Xegony.

When will it be launched? I don't really know. I figured it will be fun to share my updates as I do progression with it however, for others to give feedback if they so desire.

Enjoy.
